Abstract

Background: The evaluation of selectivity, market timing and investment leadership exercised by the multifunds dependent on the Pension Fund Administrators (PFAs) is a topic of particular interest for workers in Chile, especially after the implementation of the first new affiliates’ portfolio bidding process. Methodology: Using the Quadratic Market Model, with mobile time windows, along with Granger causality tests, this article analyzes the performance and leadership in investments of six PFAs in the five existing multifunds in Chile, from September 2010 to March 2016. Results: The results indicate that the multifunds show abilities that do not reach to compensate the commissions charged. However, in terms of net performance of commissions, compared to the industry average, the pension fund administrators, Modelo and Habitat respectively, stand out in all the multifunds. In addition, no relationship between investment leadership and net performance of commissions is detected. Conclusions: The article concludes by highlighting the importance of the commissions in the net performance of the multifunds and the potential effect that a greater number of competitors would have on the industry. In this regard, the Pension Fund Administrator Modelo stands out, which shows approximately 1.63% of better performance than the industry average, due to its lower commission detected in the entire analysis period.// Antecedentes: la evaluación de habilidades de selectividad, market timing y liderazgo en inversiones ejercido por los multifondos dependientes de las Administradoras de Fondos de Pensiones (AFP) es un tema de particular interés para los trabajadores en Chile, en especial luego de la implementación del primer proceso de licitación de cartera de nuevos afiliados. Metodología: haciendo uso del modelo de mercado cuadrático, con ventanas móviles de tiempo, junto con pruebas de causalidad de Granger, este artículo analiza el desempeño y liderazgo en políticas de inversión de seis AFP en los cinco multifondos existentes en Chile, durante el periodo que va desde septiembre de 2010 hasta marzo de 2016. Resultados: se indica que los multifondos muestran habilidades que no alcanzan a compensar las comisiones cobradas. Sin embargo, en términos de desempeño neto de comisiones, en comparación con el promedio de la industria destacan en todos los multifondos las AFP Modelo y Habitat, respectivamente. Además, no se detecta relación entre liderazgo en inversiones y desempeño. Conclusiones: el artículo finaliza destacando la importancia de las comisiones en el desempeño neto de los multifondos y en el potencial efecto que una mayor cantidad de competidores tendría en la industria. En este sentido, destaca la AFP Modelo, la cual muestra aproximadamente 1.63% de mejor desempeño que el promedio de la industria, debido a su más baja comisión detectada en el periodo completo de análisis.
