An incredible shift in investor behaviour
The days of active management dominating the fund scene are dramatically in decline. Research by Morninstar shows that passive investment strategies have grown by some six hundred percent in twenty years in the US. According to the company's Tim Stratuts, in 1994 only 6 percent of US equity assets were invested passively, while 94 percent were invested with active managers. A shift occurred in 2006 as active mangers began to see strong sell-offs, while passive investment strategies continued to rise. An active investment strategy attempts to outperform continuously the market, while a passive strategy tries to match the market’s performance. Active managers are relentlessly researching information on the market and performing detailed technical analyses to inform their decisions. The premium active investors charge to execute these strategic investment strategies has become less appealing to the average investor.
