Mutual Fund Industry

Peter Tufano studies the mutual fund industry from the perspectives of fund managers, regulators, and investors. His work looks at competitive strategies adopted by fund complexes, the determinants of fund flows, the governance structure of funds, the development of the fund industry around the world, the role of distribution in the mutual fund industry, and unintended NAV and return distortions due to fund accounting rules.  He is currently studying the money market mutual fund industry in the wake of the events of fall 2008.
