The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and capital appreciation realized is shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. The term risk has a variety of meanings in business and everyday life. At its most general level, risk is used to describe any situation where there is uncertainty about what outcome will occur. Life is obviously very risky. Even the short term future is often highly uncertain.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Mutual funds industry is a growing at a very fast rate India. Various studies and research has  been on this industry by experts. Here are the lists of few books that have been referred to for the  purpose of the study. Mr. M. Jaidev in his book has “Investment policy and performance of Mutual Fund” has studied

the Indian Public Sector Mutual Funds. In this book he has covered risk, rate of return. Investment policy and pricing of mutual funds. In this book he has done an empirical study covering all aspects of mutual fund investment along with the regulatory framework.

Nalini Prava Tripathy in her book “Mutual Funds in India. Emerging Issues” provides a

detailed evaluation of investment management which is not only helpful for influencing marketing operations but also for securities selection, investment research and timing and resource allocation.

Dr H. Sadak  in his book “Mutual Funds in India” has highlighted the importance of financial

institutions in India. The basically focuses on the growth and development of mutual funds in India. The entire gamut of the theoretical aspects of the fund management has been critically examined in the context of the performance of mutual funds and it provides an insight into fund management and the areas of weakness.

Study by Laukkanen (2006) explains that varied attributes present in a product or service facilitate customer‟s achievement of desired end-state and the indicative facts of study show that electronic services create value for customers in service consumption.

Brown & Goetzmann(1997) emphasis on mutual fund styles. Mutual funds are typically

grouped by their investment objectives or the „style‟ of their managers. This approach is simple to apply, yet it captures nonlinear patterns of returns that result from virtually all active portfolio management styles. Classifications are superior to common industry classifications in predicting cross-sectional future performance, as well as past performance, and also outperform classifications based on risk measures and analogue portfolios. Interestingly, „growth‟ funds typically break down into several categories that differ in composition and strategy.

Syriopoulos (2002) gave its review on an analysis of investor‟s risk perception towards mutual

funds services. Financial markets are constantly becoming more efficient by providing more  promising solutions to the investors. Being a part of financial markets although mutual funds industry is responding very fast by analyze investor‟s perception and expectations.

Spiegel (2004) covers analyzed the security returns follow linear factor model with constant

coefficients. This paper develops and estimates a Kalman filter statistical model to track timevarying fund alphas and betas. Several tests indicate that relative to a rolling OLS model the Kalman filter model produces more accurate fund factor loadings both in and out of sample.

Bergstresser (2007) stipulates that many investors purchase mutual funds through intermediated

channels, paying brokers or financial advisors for fund selection and advice. Brokers sold funds exhibit no more skill at aggregate-level asset allocation than do funds sold through the direct channel. Our results are consistent either with substantial non-tangible benefits delivered by the  brokerdistributed sector or with conflicts of interest between brokers and their clients.

Fama (2009) emphasis on the skills required for cross section of mutual funds returns. they

focuses on the aaggregate portfolio of U.S. equity mutual funds is close to the market portfolio,  but the high costs of active management show up intact as lower returns to investors. Bootstrap simulations suggest that few funds produce benchmark adjusted expected returns sufficient to cover their costs.

Ivković and weisbenner (2009) studied on Individual investor mutual fund flows. They studied

the relation between individuals mutual fund flows and funds characteristics, establishing three key results. First, consistent with tax motivations, individual investors are reluctant to sell mutual funds that have appreciated in value and are willing to sell losing funds. Second, individuals pay attention to investment costs as redemption decisions are sensitive to both expense ratios and loads.

Marco.et.al (2011) analysed the risk-taking behavior of a fund manager in response to prior 

 performance by conducting a comparative analysis between ethical and conventional investment

 portfolios. The paper examined the influence on managerial risk taking of the compensation and employment incentives.

Cederburg (2008) reviewed on the mutual fund investor behavior across the business cycle.

Mutual fund investor behavior changes across the business cycle. In economic expansions, investors strongly display the documented behaviors of chasing returns and searching for  managerial skill. In contrast, recession investors do not chase returns and exhibit a weaker  tendency to seek alpha. Even before controlling for momentum, no smart money effect exists in recessions.

Zhao (2004) reviewed f und families typically claim that closing a fund protects the fund superior 

 performance by preventing it from growing too large to be managed efficiently. Even though funds with better performance and larger size are more likely to be closed, there is no evidence that closing a fund can indeed protect its performance. Instead, fund closing decisions are more likely to be motivated by spillover effects  –  by closing a star fund, the fund family signals its superior performance and also bring investors attention and investments to other funds in the family. Some evidence exists to suggest that the closing strategy is effective in generating higher  inflows into the rest of the family, at least in the sho rt run.
