ABSTRACT

This study examines whether IPO funds in the Korean fund market provide differentiated economic benefits. Specifically, in the perspective of investors, we attempt to investigate economic benefits of IPO funds in following three aspects: (1) whether to extend investment opportunities set; (2) outperformance relative to market and peer funds; and (3) the persistence of performance. Our findings are as follows. First, in mean-variance spanning tests, we find that while IPO funds cannot extend an investor’s investment opportunities set. Second, we find that IPO funds have no outperformance over market and peer funds. Lastly, our results show that IPO funds have negative performance persistence.
