This thesis is focused mainly on performance measures of open-end mutual funds and analysis of selected funds with long track record (periods 1995-2013 or 2000-2013) available for individual investors in the Czech Republic. In the first part of the thesis, evolution of Czech collective investment business is described. Among traditional risk focused approaches, this thesis describes also less common approaches taking investors' psychology into account -- for example measurement of stress or net utility based on Loss Aversion theory. In the analytical part, the role of additional costs (e.g. entry fee or taxes) is emphasized as these additional costs are usually out of any consideration when measuring the performance. The results show that these additional costs may have significant impact on returns recorded by the investor. In the Czech asset management industry, we usually experience presentation of returns only -- without stress of risks or other factors, risk focused measurements are rarely displayed in funds' performance presentation.
