The Mutual Fund Industry - Competition and Investor Welfare (Hardcover): R. Glenn Hubbard, Michael Koehn, Stanley Ornstein,... The Mutual Fund Industry - Competition and Investor Welfare (Hardcover)

Mutual funds form the bedrock of retirement savings in the United States, and, considering their rapid growth, are sure to be more critical in the future. Because the size of fees paid by investors to mutual fund advisers can strongly affect the return on investment, these fees have become a contentious issue in Congress and the courts, with many arguing that investment advisers grow rich at the expense of investors.

This ground-breaking book not only conceptualizes a new economic model of the mutual fund industry, but also uses this model to test for price competition between investment advisers, evaluating the assertion that market forces fail to protect investors' returns from excessive fees. Highly experienced authors track the growth of the industry over the past twenty-five years and present arguments and evidence both for and against theories of adviser malfeasance. The authors review the regulatory history of mutual fund fees and summarize leading case decisions addressing excessive fees.

Revealing the extent to which the governance structure of mutual funds truly impacts fund performance, this book provides the best understanding of today's mutual fund industry and is a vital tool for investors, money managers, fund directors, securities lawyers, economists, and anyone concerned with the regulation of mutual funds.

Nearly seventy years after the last great stock market bubble and crash, another bubble emerged and burst, despite a thick layer of regulation designed since the 1930s to prevent such things. This time the bubble was enormous, reflecting nearly twenty years of double-digit stock market growth, and its bursting had painful consequence. The search for culprits soon began, and many were discovered, including not only a number of overreaching corporations, but also their auditors, investment bankers, lawyers and indeed, their investors. In Governing the Modern Corporation, Smith and Walter analyze the structure of market capitalism to see what went wrong.
They begin by examining the developments that have made modern financial markets--now capitalized globally at about $70 trillion--so enormous, so volatile and such a source of wealth (and temptation) for all players. Then they report on the evolving role and function of the business corporation, the duties of its officers and directors and the power of its Chief Executive Officer who seeks to manage the company to achieve as favorable a stock price as possible.
They next turn to the investing market itself, which comprises mainly financial institutions that own about two-thirds of all American stocks and trade about 90% of these stocks. These investors are well informed, highly trained professionals capable of making intelligent investment decisions on behalf of their clients, yet the best and brightest ultimately succumbed to the bubble and failed to carry out an appropriate governance role.
In what follows, the roles and business practices of the principal financial intermediaries--notably auditors and bankers--areexamined in detail. All, corporations, investors and intermediaries, are found to have been infected by deep-seated conflicts of interest, which add significant agency costs to the free-market system. The imperfect, politicized role of the regulators is also explored, with disappointing results. The entire system is seen to have been compromised by a variety of bacteria that crept in, little by little, over the years and were virtually invisible during the bubble years.
These issues are now being addressed, in part by new regulation, in part by prosecutions and class action lawsuits, and in part by market forces responding to revelations of misconduct. But the authors note that all of the market's professional players--executives, investors, experts and intermediaries themselves--carry fiduciary obligations to the shareholders, clients, and investors whom they represent. More has to be done to find ways for these fiduciaries to be held accountable for the correct discharge of their duties.

Ziel des Buches ist es, die mathematischen Methoden und deren Anwendung, welche heutzutage typischerweise in der Finanzwelt und bei der Beschreibung von Kapitalmärkten zum Einsatz kommen, in einem Band zusammenzufassen. Der Text kann etwa als Grundlage einer zweisemestrigen Vorlesung in einem Bachelor- oder Master-Studiengang (Wirtschafts-)Mathematik dienen, und gibt den Studenten, die bereits eine einführende Vorlesung zu den Themen der klassischen Finanzmathematik absolviert haben, einen Überblick über die konkrete Anwendung weiterführender mathematischer Methoden in der Finanzwelt. Es ist weniger theorielastig als viele vergleichbare Bücher und richtet den Fokus mehr auf das "tatsächlich vermittelbare und für die Praxis relevante" Wissen.

Financial planning is a young industry. The International Association of Financial Planning--one of the predecessors to the Financial Planning Association--was formed less than forty years ago. But as the profession's first tier of advisers reaches maturity, the decisions that may be part of transition planning for their firms loom large. A sale? A partner buyout? A merger? No matter what the choice, its viability hinges on one critical issue--the value of the firm.
Unfortunately, many advisers--whether veteran or novice--simply don't know the worth of their practice or how to influence it. That's why "How to Value, Buy, or Sell a Financial-Advisory Practice" is such an important book. It takes advisers carefully through the logic and the legwork of coming to a true assessment of one of their most important personal assets--their business.
Renowned for their years of experience helping advisers tackle the daunting challenges related to the valuation, sale, and purchase of advisory firms, Mark C. Tibergien and Owen Dahl offer guidance that's essential and solutions that work.

Principles of Private Firm Valuation

"The past forty years has produced significant theoretical and empirical research on the ways in which the capital markets value the equity shares of publicly traded firms. This research supported the rapid development of the analytical frameworks approach to the valuation of public equity shares. Stanley Feldman, in Principles of Private Firm Valuation, makes a major contribution in furthering this analytical frameworks approach to the valuation of privately held equity shares."
--Timothy G. Sullivan, Professor of Finance, Bentley College, Waltham, Massachusetts

"Principles of Private Firm Valuation offers CFOs of private firms critical insights into the factors that determine private firm value. The managing for value model is particularly useful because it creates a framework to measure the value created by undertaking various business strategies including acquisitions and divestitures. Overall, Principles offers a superlative guide must-read to the numerous and complex valuation issues that owners and managers of private firms face. It is a must read for those interested in how the value of private firms is determined."
--Frank Fiumara, VP & CFO, Curtis Instruments, Inc.

"CFOs of public firms are intimately involved in valuation issues related to acquisitions and divestitures. As private firms are targeted for acquisitions, CFOs of private firms will be increasingly relied upon to offer advice and guidance to owners. For finance professionals that desire to raise their level of preparedness for the valuation questions that will certainly come, Principles of Private Firm Valuation offers an excellent start. Principles clearlyaddresses a number of complex private firm valuation issues including determining the cost of capital, and the importance of transparency and liquidity to establishing the value of a private firm. For those interested in private firm valuation, I highly recommend Principles."

Inside markets, innovation, and risk

Why do markets keep crashing and why are financial crises greater than ever before? As the risk manager to some of the leading firms on Wall Street-from Morgan Stanley to Salomon and Citigroup-and a member of some of the world's largest hedge funds, from Moore Capital to Ziff Brothers and FrontPoint Partners, Rick Bookstaber has seen the ghost inside the machine and vividly shows us a world that is even riskier than we think. The very things done to make markets safer, have, in fact, created a world that is far more dangerous. From the 1987 crash to Citigroup closing the Salomon Arb unit, from staggering losses at UBS to the demise of Long-Term Capital Management, Bookstaber gives readers a front row seat to the management decisions made by some of the most powerful financial figures in the world that led to catastrophe, and describes the impact of his own activities on markets and market crashes. Much of the innovation of the last 30 years has wreaked havoc on the markets and cost trillions of dollars. "A Demon of Our Own Design" tells the story of man's attempt to manage market risk and what it has wrought. In the process of showing what we have done, Bookstaber shines a light on what the future holds for a world where capital and power have moved from Wall Street institutions to elite and highly leveraged hedge funds.
