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 andfund ranking agencies.
