The Objective of this research is to identify whether there is a different level performance of mutual funds in syariah shares among Information Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and Roy Safety First Ratio. This analysis using qualitative descriptive.

It means there is a different performance result of mutual fund in syariah shares. The result Sortino ratio provides all of mutual fund share are in negative performance in all of year. It means there is no different performance result of mutual fund in syariah shares. The result Roy Safety First Ratio provides all of mutual funds in syariah shares are in negative performance in 2015, 2 mutual funds in syariah shares are in negative performance in 2016 and 4 mutual funds in syariah shares are in positive performance in 2017.

Mutual Fund Performance in Slovenia: An Analysis of Mutual Funds with Investment Policies in Europe and the Energy Sector This paper examines the risk and return performance of mutual funds in Slovenia from 2005 until August 2009. The research is limited to the regional investment policies in Europe and the energy sector. Using monthly returns, we analyzed different risk-adjusted measures such as: the Treynor ratio, the Sortino ratio and the Information ratio. We also studied selections and timing ability using the Treynor-Mazuy model. The risk and return performance of mutual funds in the Slovenian market does not deviate from those in developed markets. We also found out that the selection ability of fund managers is better than market timing and that the findings of this paper are in accordance with other international studies.

Abstract In this study, I examine the risk-adjusted return of mutual funds in India. A data set of 4220 mutual funds is used for the analysis. Sharpe ratio, a metric of risk-adjusted return (Sharpe, 1994) and Information ratio, a metric of outperformance than a fund’s benchmark (Goodwin, 1998) were analyzed. Regression analysis is used to estimate the impact of fund characteristics like fund category, fund type, fund access type, corpus size on the dependent variables i.e., Sharpe Ratio and the Information Ratio. All the funds underperformed in both the Sharpe ratio and Information ratio. Liquid funds found worst. Fund type and corpus size do not impact fund performance. Fund access type was found to be significant on fund performance. The results add to the literature by examining the post-pandemic period.

Starting Point

An asset management company must replace the manager of its two signature mutual funds, who is about to retire. Two candidates have been short-listed. The management team is divided and cannot decide which of the two candidates would make the better mutual fund manager. The retiring manager presents a linear regression model to examine success factors of mutual fund managers. This linear regression is the starting point for the subsequent analysis.Application of linear regression analysis to analyze the performance of mutual fund managers.

Value Effect

This study provides evidence that value and stocks’ growth able to explain Net Asset Value of Shariah Mutual Fund. It is important for investment managers and investors to estimate future profit or loss that may happen on their mutual funds prior they venture into the investment platform. This study therefore is conducted to prove that factors including value and growth may affect the future profit of Shariah Mutual Funds. Based on quantitative analysis with secondary data from companies indexed in the Jakarta Islamic Index and Sharia Mutual Fund from year 2013 to 2017, it is found that both growth and value of stock have equally affected the profit of Sharia Mutual Funds. In addition, growth of stock has a larger R-Square than its value which means that the investors or fund managers would need to observe the stock growth more often than its value in order to predict future profitability of Shariah funds.  It is expected that the results of this study can provide additional insight to investment managers when choosing a portfolio for investors. For investors, this information is useful to predict the risk and return that they will receive from the investment.

This study examines the importance of idiosyncratic and systematic risks in explaining equity fund returns in Malaysia. The level of market and idiosyncratic risk in a mutual fund depends on what asset class it invests in. Equity type asset classes are exposed to both systematic and idiosyncratic risk but research generally suggest that only systematic risk is relevant in mutual fund selection since idiosyncratic risk can be reduced through fund diversification. This study attempts to expand the insights of the risk-return relationship by providing additional evidence on the direct and indirect effects of investment risk on equity mutual fund returns. Employing partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM), we also explore if idiosyncratic risk moderates the relationship between market risk and mutual fund returns. A sample of 150 Malaysian domestic equity mutual funds comprising of large, mid & small-cap equity funds were selected from the Morningstar website.  The results indicate that market risk does not influence mutual funds returns but idiosyncratic risk has a significant and positive effect. Idiosyncratic risk is proxied by fund characteristics comprising of size, age, expenses and fund manager ability. This study shows that fund size, age or expenses are not significant and only the fund alpha which measures fund manager ability is relevant in predicting fund returns. The study also finds that the fund alpha moderates the influence of market risk on returns by changing the nature of the relationship from positive to negative.
