Lipper 2011 Subadvised Funds Research Series - Part Two - Performance

Part 1 of our "Lipper 2011 Subadvisor Series" found that subadvised funds are slightly more expensive than funds that are not subadvised, and the portion of the management fee retained by advisors varies greatly among subadvisor relationships. Renewed interest in the expenses and fees of subadvised funds is the result of recent litigation. Part 2 continues the Lipper Subadvisor Series by addressing subadvisor performance, namely whether subadvised funds perform better than funds that are not subadvised. In addition, we look at the top subadvisors and subadvised funds by assets, as well as clones, a term described in detail later.
KEY POINTS:
1. Subadvised funds and funds that are not subadvised have nearly identical median performance for one-, three-, five-, and ten-year annualized total return figures.
2. The top ten subadvisors based on AUM have high Lipper Leaders scores.
3. The top ten subadvised funds based on AUM have high Lipper Leader scores.
4. When comparing subadvised and advised clones, the subadvised fund performs better than the advised fund, but the relationship reverses in some cases when expenses are added back.
