Resumo: In this paper, we use data from 34 countries around the world to study the shape of the flow-performance relationship. More particularly, we study the impact of fund family size on the flow-performance sensitivity. We use mutual fund industry development variables and financial development variables as proxies for investor‟s sophistication in order to explain differences in how mutual fund investors react to fund's past performance when these belong to large fund families. The results show that, in more sophisticated markets, investors react more to past performance when funds belong to large fund families by selling more bottom performers and buying less top performers.

Mais particularmente, estudamos o impacto de o fundo pertencer a uma família de maior dimensão, medida pelos seus ativos líquidos, na sensibilidade dos investidores à sua performance passada. Usamos variáveis de desenvolvimento da indústria de fundos de investimento e variáveis de desenvolvimento dos mercados financeiros como indicadores para a sofisticação dos investidores, tendo como objetivo explicar as diferenças na forma como estes reagem ao desempenho histórico do fundo, quando este pertence a famílias com mais ativos. Os resultados mostram que, em mercados mais desenvolvidos, os investidores reagem mais à performance se os fundos pertencerem a grandes famílias, desinvestindo mais se o desempenho do fundo for baixo e investindo menos quando é elevada.2019-02-19T12:39:34Z2018-09-20T00:00:00Z2018-09-202018-07info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfapplication/octet-streamhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/17359TID:201981068engLiu Xiayueinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:46:55Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/17359Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:22:41.124146Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
