Mutual fund styles

Article Abstract:

Mutual funds are grouped according to the type of invested securities and style of the managers. The fund manager influences the selection of the types of stock to hold, timing of purchases and sales, level of fund diversification, and industry concentration of the portfolio, to determine returns of client investments. A generalized least squares procedure, that allows time-varying and fund-specific residual return variance, is used as an algorithm to classify managerial styles. The algorithm is consistent with asset pricing models, and can be used to decompose styles into time-varying factor loadings and risk premium measurement.
