This book was released on 2008-08 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of U.S. households have invested in mutual funds whose value exceeded $6 trillion in 2003. The fees and other costs that these investors pay as part of owning mutual funds can significantly affect their investment returns. Press reports suggest that mutual fund fees have increased during the market downturn in the several years prior to 2003. In addition, questions have been raised as to whether the disclosures of these fees and other costs, such as brokerage commissions, are sufficiently transparent. In March 2003, a report showed the trends in mutual fund fees from 1990 and 1998 for large funds that were calculated by collecting data on how these 76 funds¿ fees changed from 1998 to 2001. Charts and tables.

Download or read book Swing Pricing and Fragility in Open end Mutual Funds written by Dunhong Jin and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to prevent runs on open-end mutual funds? In recent years, markets have observed an innovation that changed the way open-end funds are priced. Alternative pricing rules (known as swing pricing) adjust funds’ net asset values to pass on funds’ trading costs to transacting shareholders. Using unique data on investor transactions in U.K. corporate bond funds, we show that swing pricing eliminates the first-mover advantage arising from the traditional pricing rule and significantly reduces redemptions during stress periods. The positive impact of alternative pricing rules on fund flows reverses in calm periods when costs associated with higher tracking error dominate the pricing effect.

Download or read book Normative Listing and Description of Mutual Fund Transparent and Opaque Fees and Expenses written by John A. Haslem and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study provides mutual fund shareholders with a normative listing of transparent and traditionally opaque fees and expenses designed for most all funds. The most likely next step, if any, would be for a few "stewardship funds" to adopt the normative listing of transparent and traditionally opaque fees and expenses and attach to each its percentage cost to total net assets, if any. This analysis is needed, for one reason, because a large percentage of individual investors, especially those with low financial literacy, are unaware of the existence of traditionally opaque fund fees and expenses, no less their percentage costs.

Download or read book Management Fees of the Spanish Mutual Fund Industry written by Ana Carmen Díaz Mendoza and published by Ed. Universidad de Cantabria. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra analiza las comisiones de gestión pagadas por los partícipes de la industria de fondos de inversión españoles. Dado que estas comisiones influyen directamente en la rentabilidad final obtenida por los partícipes y son, por otro lado, la principal fuente de ingresos de las Sociedades Gestoras de los fondos de inversión, su determinación adquiere una gran relevancia para los inversores, gestores y compañías gestoras y también para los reguladores de estos activos financieros. El libro está estructurado en tres capítulos que tienen un objetivo común: comparar el grupo de fondos de inversión que cobran comisiones de gestión total o parcialmente en función de los resultados obtenidos por el fondo (en este caso hablamos de la comisión de gestión sobre rendimiento) con los que establecen las comisiones de gestión exclusivamente en función del activo gestionado por el fondo (comisión de gestión sobre rendimiento). Los capítulos utilizan diferentes frecuecias de datos, muestras, modelos y metodologías de estimación.
Download or read book The Black Box of Mutual Fund Fees written by Miguel Ángel Martínez Sedano and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper re-examines the determinants of mutual fund fees paid by mutual fund shareholders for management costs and other expenses. There are two novelties with respect to previous studies. First, each type of fee is explained separately. Second, the paper employs a new dataset consisting of Spanish mutual funds, making it the second paper to study mutual fund fees outside the US market. Furthermore, the Spanish market has three interesting characteristics: (i) both distribution and management are highly dominated by banks and savings banks, which points towards potential conflicts of interest; (ii) Spanish mutual fund law imposes caps on all types of fees; and (iii) Spain ranks first in terms of average mutual fund fees among similar countries. We find significant differences in mutual fund fees not explained by the fund's investment objective. For instance, investors in older non-guaranteed funds and non-guaranteed funds with a lower average investment are more likely to end up paying higher management fees. Moreover, there is clear evidence that some mutual funds enjoy better conditions from custodial institutions than others. In contrast to evidence from the US market, larger funds are not associated with lower fees, but with higher font loads for guaranteed funds. Finally, fee levels are not related to fund before-fee risk-adjusted performance.
