Recent mutual fund literature describes irrational fund flow patterns apparently due to investors’ tendency to reward fund managers with excess fund flows for higher materialised factor-related returns. Most interestingly for this study, Song (2020) links these fund flow patterns with the decreasing economies of scale hypothesis in mutual funds by proposing that the excess fund flows have significant predictive power over the funds’ future benchmark-adjusted performance. The main contribution of our study is to figure out to which extent the documented inverse relationship between mutual funds’ prior excess fund flows and their subsequent future benchmark-adjusted performance is a consequence of fund managers’ inability to replicate high fa...
