The Research of the Performance of Investing in Offshore Funds and International Stock Markets / 海外共同基金與國際股市投資之績效研究

碩士 / 淡江大學 / 財務金融學系 / 85 / The objective of this paper is to compare the performance of
buying offshore funds with those of investing in international
stock markets,so we have the weekly return rates of 26 kinds
of offshare funds and stock markets of 15

countries.We introduce Markowitz''s investment portfolio theory
into the

investment on offshore funds and stock markets, and decide the
optimal

investment portfolios.With the optimal investment portfolios, we
can draw the

efficient frontiers of the offshore funds and stock markets.
Comparing those

two efficient frontiers, we can kown which way to invest is
better.Then we invest in the international stock
markets with the portfolio of offshore funds,

that is,to simulate the portfolio of offshore funds,drawing the
efficient

frontier, and compare with the efficient frontier drawing by the
stock markets.

Through this empirical study, we arrive at the following
conclusions:

1. It is hard to say that the return and the risk of the
offshare funds are

better than those of the international stock markets.

2. The correlation coefficients of the offshore funds and the
international stock markets are low.
That''s means we can reduce the investment risk by

diversification. 3.
The correlation coefficients between the offshore funds and
Taiwan stock

market are lower than those between the international stock
markets and

Taiwan stock market. So it is better to buy the offshore funds
to reduce

the risk.

4. The efficient frontier of offshore funds is better than the
efficient frontier of international stock markets. 5.
The efficient frontier of international stock markets is better
than the

efficient frontier of the simulated investment portfolio.
