The retail investors in India are characterized by an affinity to avoid risk and they lack the mental readiness to absorb the shocks of the volatile capital market. Hence, to attract the surplus funds possessed by the retail investors into the capital market, intermediaries like mutual funds are required. Though apparently mutual funds were intended to cater to the needs of the retail investor, the stock market has not won investors’ confidence to attract a growing share of household’s financial savings. Today, more players are entering into the market and a naïve investor is unable to deploy the investment in the right direction. The study analyse the retail investors financial decision in terms of investing their savings in the capital market through mutual fund investment. The study found that, investor’s with moderate risk tolerance level prefer to invest in mutual funds and return, marketability and liquidity are the most satisfying factors investor they look on.

The growing enthusiasm for mutual funds among the investment choice is an anxiety in the Nepali capital market. The paper aims to find out the investors’ eagerness towards mutual funds in Nepal. This investigation is descriptive and based on a structured questionnaire survey of 125 (out of 140) respondents from the broker office in Chitwan District. The stratified sampling method was used, based on four strata (Businessperson, university lecturer, university student, institutional and local investor) of the respondents’ socio-demographic, adequate knowledge, and factors determination areas. The paper has three major discoveries. First, Nepali investors were dominated by male gender like as in other countries, and university students were excited in the capital market for investment that most common only in Nepal. Second, investors were investing in mutual funds without sufficient knowledge although most investors were aware of political instability. Lastly, investing in common stock rather than mutual funds, followed by the players who made the mutual fund more effective were the most prioritized factors and awareness to invest in mutual funds was the least factor while investing by an investor. Moreover, the correlation among all variables was positively significant. This paper is valuable to the government bodies, academicians, concern companies, and investors, which help them to know more about mutual funds. This study concludes differently from previous studies that individuals prefer to invest in the capital market rather than a bank deposit, which is probably the new appearance in Nepal.

The objectives of this study are: to determine the performance of mutual funds on the LQ-45 index is higher than the performance of equity funds in the Indonesian capital market and to measure the level of efficiency in the capital market using CAPM modeling and using Net Active Value (NAV) data per year for the 2015 period. -2019. To determine whether a mutual fund is good or bad, it is not measured by how much the return has been generated or by how big or small the risk of fluctuation is, but this is seen from how much the mutual fund performs with its reference index. If the performance of index mutual funds is better or the performance of stock mutual funds is lower overall, the capital market can be said to be efficient. The results of this study indicate that the performance of the LQ-45 index mutual funds is smaller than the performance of the more superior stock mutual funds above. So it can be concluded that the Indonesian capital market is an inefficient Indonesian capital market.

Extreme Returns

We find that mutual fund investors are more likely to both purchase and redeem funds with high idiosyncratic volatility (IV). Investors’ tendency to purchase high IV funds is largely driven by high IV funds having more extreme returns, which increases the salience of the fund. Including flexible controls for extreme past returns over multiple horizons decreases the effect of IV on new investment, and experimental evidence corroborates that increasing the salience of extreme returns increases investor demand for IV. Demand for IV is higher among retail investors and funds with otherwise lower salience. Collectively, the evidence suggests that extreme returns attract investor attention and contribute to investors’ risk seeking behavior when purchasing mutual funds.
