Abstract

[fre] L’exemple de la multigestion montre l’importance de savoir s’il existe réellement des styles de gestion pouvant différencier les pratiques des gérants. Cet article propose une classification et une analyse des styles de gestion fondées sur un questionnaire adressé aux gérants d’OPCVM. Les auteurs caractérisent six styles (indiciel, stock picking, quantitative, growth, value et sectoriel) en fonction (1) de l’existence d’un indice de référence (benchmark), (2) du rôle de ce benchmark dans la gestion et (3) de la logique de sélection des titres. Les résultats montrent que les fonds ayant un même style ont des caractéristiques (en termes de profil du fonds et du gérant, de sources d’information retenues ou d’impact potentiel sur le marché) homogènes, et distinctes des fonds ayant des styles différents. Les auteurs vérifient également que les styles peuvent expliquer les performances des fonds. . Classification JEL : C42, G11, G23 [eng] Do fund management styles exist ? . A « multi-manager » fund management style needs evidence of distinct management styles. This article uses a questionnaire sent to French equities mutual fund managers. The authors propose to characterize styles according to (1) the use of a benchmark (2) the commitment regarding the benchmark (3) the way stocks are selected. The result gives that six styles present homogeneous characteristics, not only concerning fund returns, but also in terms of organisation, information signals, and market impact. . JEL classification : C42, G11, G23
