Since the opening up of the economy in the early 1990s, Indian mutual fund industry has witnessed fabulous quantitative growth. Funds which invest a larger proportion of their corpus in companies with large market capitalization are called large cap funds. Actively managed funds make use of a human element, such as a single manager, comanagers or a team of managers, to actively manage a fund's portfolio. The main objective of the study is to analyse the performance of select actively managed large cap equity funds in the line of risk-return parameters. This study is based on fourteen funds from twelve Asset Management Companies. All the funds are ranked under seven performance measures, namely, fund return, fund standard deviation, Sharpe Ratio, Treynor Ratio, return from systematic investment plan (SIP), Jensen Alpha, and RSQ, for five different time periods of 1-year, 3-year, 5-year, 7-year, and 10-year.

The purpose of this paper is to compare the performance of mutual funds —pension plans— whose managers simultaneously manage the assets belonging to pension plans —mutual funds— with that achieved by mutual funds —pension plans— whose managers only manage the assets belonging to mutual funds —pension plans—. To do this, we present a sample consisting of data corresponding to 115 Spanish equity pension plans and 336 Spanish equity mutual funds in relation to such aspects as risk-adjusted return, management and custodial fees, asset size, creation date, number of participants, name of the asset management companies for the period between February 2007 and June 2011. On this data, we propose a model using the bootstrap technique. The results obtained show no significant relationship between side-by-side management and financial performance in the mutual fund and pension plan industries. Therefore, we do not find evidence that pension plan investors are being exploited.

Mutual funds are emerging as a popular choice among investors to park their surplus funds in India as exemplified by increasing assets under management (AUM). The study discusses several industry trends such as increase in mutual fund accounts and schemes, changing consumer preferences towards equity mutual funds and the increasing role of retail investors in the overall mutual fund market. While barriers continue to act as deterrents, the overall industry is poised to reach INR20,00,000 crore in terms of AUM by FY18. The study aims to evaluate the annual as well as periodical performance of 5 multicap mutual fund schemes of top 5 asset management companies for the period of five years from 1st April 2012 to 31st March 2017. Taking SandP BSE 500 as the benchmark index, the study computes several absolute and relative performance measures using Sharp and Treynor Ratios along with Jensen Alpha. The study finds that all schemes except HDFC Premier Multicap fund generated higher risk adjusted returns than the benchmark index. Birla Sunlife Equity fund emerged as the best performer with higher average returns and lower risk.

Background and Purpose: Studies focusing on mutual fund managerial abilities and investment style strategies are still scarce in the literature. Thus, this study aims to provide new evidence and insights into the managerial abilities and investment style performances of Malaysian fund managers.   Methodology: A total of 444 Malaysian equity mutual funds (EMFs) were evaluated using Carhart’s model incorporated with Treynor-Mazuy (T-M) and Henriksson-Merton (H-M) market timing models for the study period, from January 1995 to December 2017.   Findings: Fund managers displayed superior stock selection skills with 32 percent and 43 percent of funds for T-M and H-M respectively, with perverse market timing ability which accounted for 39 percent and 42 percent of funds for T-M and H-M respectively. Perverse timing ability had reduced the superior stock-picking skills of fund managers. This suggests that the EMFs performance could further improve if respective fund managers perform better in market timing ability. The finding also indicates that size effect (SMB) and value effect (HML) play significant roles in investment style strategies, while results of momentum factor (WML) propose that Malaysian fund managers have followed the contrarian strategy.   Contributions: This study contributes in several ways especially in the literature of portfolio management as the evidence is obtained from the largest mutual funds sample size and the longest study period. Moreover, this study also used the highest frequency data to study the effects of market timing which were overlooked in previous studies.   Keywords: Adjusted carhart, Malaysian market, market timing, mutual fund, stock selection.   Cite as: Ling, P-S., & Abdul-Rahim, R.
