Mutual Fund Performance Measures and Selection Criteria

Keith R. Fevurly

Chapter Chapter 5 in The Handbook of Professionally Managed Assets, 2013, pp 83-107 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract There are two main ways to evaluate the performance of an open-end investment company or mutual fund. The first is to read the prospectus that every fund is required to issue. The performance history of the fund, along with the fund’s investment objective and expenses, are included in the first several pages of the prospectus. The second is to use a professional reference service.
