The Optimal Size of Hedge Funds: Conflict between Investors and Fund Managers
This study examines whether the standard compensation contract in the hedge fund industry aligns managers? incentives with investors? interests. I show empirically that managers? compensation increases when fund assets grow, even when diseconomies of scale in fund performance exist. Thus, managers? compensation is maximized at a much larger fund size than is optimal for fund performance. However, to avoid capital outflows, managers are also motivated to restrict fund growth to maintain style-average performance. Similarly, fund management firms have incentives to collect more capital for all funds under management, including their flagship funds, even at the expense of fund performance..Printed Journal
