The mutual fund fee structure varies substantially across funds, a major variable being whether a contract imposes a fixed fee or marginal fee structure. This paper examines how the use of a fee structure affects broker compensation, investor investment decisions and broker benefits. Theory suggests that marginal fee contracts are the results of either economies of scale or non-linear fund performance. The intent of this study is to understand if the fee structure framing has a significant economic effect on broker compensations. Furthermore, to understand if fund inflows as well as fund performance are directly influenced by fee structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
