A Snapshot into Fund Managers Performance

December 15, 2009 10:05 am by Dean Morel

It’s often repeated that 75% of fund managers under perform their index, but how true is that?

The Cooper Super System Review Phase Two highlighted Standard & Poor’s fund managers performance table, which I’ve charted below.

funds-under-performBased on this short time frame it appears fund investors should stick to small caps and A-REITs to get close to a 50/50 chance of outperforming the index.

I wonder how much those bond fund managers are being paid to under perform? That is atrocious performance.

Disclosure: I am invested in a small caps value based fund.
