讲座摘要:

We analyze a rational model of mutual fund flows where Bayesian investors learn about managers' stock selection and market timing abilities. The model predicts that the sensitivity of fund flows to stock selection ability (resp. market timing ability) increases (resp. decreases) with market volatility. Empirically, we find mutual fund flows are significantly positively related to mutual funds’ stock selection and market timing abilities, but investors' responses to the two abilities move in opposite directions with change in market volatility. With an increase in market volatility, there are more inflows to funds with stock selection ability but fewer inflows to funds with market timing ability. Our results are robust to controlling for known determinants of mutual fund flows, including various fund characteristics, Morningstar ratings, and several behavioral biases. They are distinct from patterns in mutual funds’ flow-performance sensitivity driven by fund return volatility, uncertainty about fund's exposure to systematic risk (market states), average fund idiosyncratic risk (cross-sectional fund return dispersion).
