nÃo hà / O objetivo principal do presente trabalho à a anÃlise da previsibilidade de retorno para Fundos de Investimentos, utilizando o PatrimÃnio LÃquido e realizando o confronto entre o retorno mÃdio, com base no comportamento dos indicadores, estaremos fornecendo informaÃÃes para a montagem de estratÃgia de investimento para o mercado financeiro. A pesquisa foi fundamentada com a criaÃÃo de quatro carteiras, analisando 72 fundos de investimento, comparados com os principais benchmarks de mercado realizado durante o perÃodo 1998 a 2009. A estratÃgia ativa proposta, à tal que, o investidor aposta a cada quadrimestre nos 20 fundos com melhor performance (winners) em PatrimÃnio LÃquido, com pior performance em PatrimÃnio LÃquido (loosers), com melhor performance em Retorno MÃdio (winners), com pior performance em Retorno MÃdio (Loosers). Com base nos resultados obtidos, observamos que trÃs carteiras, das quatro criadas, conseguem superar e manter ganhos acima do Ibovespa, porÃm, quando comparados a outros benchmarks de mercado, nenhuma carteira tem sucesso, fato este que merece ser melhor investigado. Os portfolios compostos sÃo analisados sempre em trÃs esferas no perÃodo de prÃ-crise, no ano da crise e apÃs crise com intuito de identificar o desempenho das carteiras. Os benchmarks de mercado estÃo representados pelo Ibovespa, IBRX, IEE e FGV 100. Com exceÃÃo do Ibovespa, os indices de mercados apresentaram resultados superiores em perÃodo de crise. / The main objective of this study is to examine the predictability of return to investment funds using the Equity and making the comparison between the average return, based on performance indicators, will be providing information for the assembly of investment strategy for the financial market. The research was supported by the creation of four portfolios, analyzing 72 investment funds, compared with the main benchmarks market developed over the period 1998 to 2009. The active strategy proposal is such that investors bet every quarter in the 20 funds with better performance (winners) in Equity, with poorer performance on Equity (loosers), with better performance in Return Average (winners), with worse Return on Average performance (Loosers). Based on these results, we observe that three of the four portfolios created can overcome and sustain gains above the Bovespa index, but when compared to other market benchmarks, no portfolio is successful, a fact that deserves further investigation. The portfolios are analyzed when compounds in three balls in the pre-crisis year of the crisis and after crisis with the aim of identifying the performance of portfolios. The market benchmarks are represented by Ibovespa, IBRX, IEE and FGV 100. Except for the Bovespa index, the market indices showed better results in periods of crisis.

This is a study of the ex-dividend day. The study covers six years (2007-2012) and studies the shares included in the OMXS30 on the Stockholm stock exchange. OMXS30 is a share index of the 30 most actively traded stocks on the exchange. The study comprised a total of 145 observations. The purpose of this study is to investigate if the stock price on the ex-dividend day unfolds as the efficient market hypothesis teach or if there exists room for speculation, and thus earn a return higher than the market.The ex-dividend day effect has been studied previously, both on the Swedish market but also abroad. The results of previous researchers are different but they all have one thing in common, namely that there is a certain ex-dividend day effect.When calculating the ex-dividend day effect, the stock prices had to be adjusted for the normal return that occurs during the ex-dividend day. The normal return is not something that is universally known, but must be estimated by the author. In this study, it was estimated using the OMXS30 index movements relative to each company's beta. After that price drop ratio is calculated. The authors found that the share price on average fell by about 90 % of the dividend amount, with the possibility of an excess return of approximately 0.37 %. This was according to statistical tests significantly different from one, indicating that the ex-dividend day effect exists. By studying each year the authors found significant discrepancies between the years that cannot be explained, the authors themselves could conclude that the price drop ratio exists in symbiosis with the current economic situation.

This dissertation work focuses on evaluation of the performance and credibility of domestic pension funds. It includes information about pension systems in six selected countries in the world, specifically Chile, Hungary, Switzerland, Poland, Sweden and Slovakia, and culminates with a proposal for pension reform in the Czech Republic. The evaluation of the performance of pension funds is based on experience with measuring performance in twenty-three countries of the world processed for the OECD and cites original basis materials for proposals for the regulation of pension funds in the Czech Republic. Setting of indicators is preceded by an analysis of measurements of performance by the Association of Pension Funds in the Czech Republic and the Research Institute of Labour and Social Affairs. The most important proposed indicators include the actual result in relation to the participants' funds, which captures the influence of changes in the market values of financial assets, and the indicator of competence covers obligations, reflecting the influence of changes in costs during subsequent periods, which include yet undistributed commission for mediators of pension insurance. For a comparison of benefits and risks, mutual funds denominated in CZK were selected, which were verified as a suitable alternative to long-term saving. The method of evaluation of pension funds itself is based on explanation, evaluation and selection of favourable indicators for determining the rating of domestic pension funds, which clients of pension funds could use as a method for evaluating the credibility and benefits of a specific domestic pension fund for the purpose of securing it in retirement age.
