Textul de pe ultima copertă
“The title of the book by Moshe Levy and Richard Roll is very apt indeed: Mutual Fund Selection: From Theory to Practice. It describes and analyzes the key measures that have been proposed to evaluate mutual fund performance, considers their usefulness for predicting future performance over long and short horizons and introduces a new measure -- the Shrinkage-adjusted Sharpe Ratio -- that may provide better predictions than the historic Sharpe Ratio. The book well describes previous theory and offers a new approach for those concerned with future performance. I found the book to be excellent and learned much from it.”
—William F. Sharpe, STANCO 25 Professor of Finance, Emeritus, Graduate School of Business, Stanford University; Recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences
“Authored by two seasoned veterans of the data-rich world of financial research, this book should be required reading for anyone who invests in, manages, or markets mutual funds. We all stand to improve our investment processes by adopting the metrics they propose.”
—Andrew W. Lo, Charles E. and Susan T. Harris Professor of Finance, MIT Sloan School of Management
The vast majority of investors in the capital market do so, at least in part, via mutual funds. In the US market alone, there are currently thousands of mutual funds to choose from. Thus, the task of mutual fund selection is of central importance. It is a notoriously difficult task, because the past return parameters are very noisy estimates of the future parameters. This book presents the state-of-the-art research in this field. It describes recent academic findings and translates them into practical guidelines for mutual fund selection, and will be of interest to researchers alongside professional investors and fund ranking agencies.
