This article provides a robust and practical framework for assessing performance fees. The fee valuation uses standard option pricing models and therefore does not require any expected return or alpha estimate. These features make the framework easy to use, robust, and widely applicable to a variety of fee structures in practice. The authors discuss the incentive impact of performance fees and caution against the unintended consequences for manager behaviors. These implications are especially relevant today, as systematic investing is on the rise and asset owners are increasingly interested in the adoption of performance fees across a broader range of investment styles. TOPICS: Derivatives, options, manager selection, performance measurement Key Findings ▪ This article provides a practical framework for assessing performance fees based on standard option pricing models. The fee valuation does not require any expected return or alpha estimate, making this framework transparent, robust, and widely applicable. ▪ Using the framework, the authors show the incentive impact of performance fees and caution against the unintended consequences for manager behaviors. ▪ The article discusses the implications of performance fees in the context of systematic investing.

The high internal rates of return sought by private equity funds are highly sensitive to portfolio company holding periods. The authors examine the determinants of holding periods for a sample of European buyouts from 2000 to 2015. Their results establish that the average holding period has lengthened to 5.8 years in the period after the Global Financial Crisis. What explains this fact? The European sample allows the authors to control for both portfolio-company-level and fund-level differences. They first rule out that the increase is fully driven by changes in exit markets. Increased competition in European private equity markets remains a plausible complementary mechanism.
私人股本基金追求的高内部回报率对投资组合公司的持有期高度敏感。作者研究了2000年至2015年欧洲收购样本的持有期决定因素。他们的研究结果表明,在全球金融危机之后,平均持有期已延长至5.8年。如何解释这一事实?欧洲样本允许作者控制投资组合-公司层面和基金层面的差异。他们首先排除了这种增长完全是由退出市场的变化驱动的可能性。加强欧洲私人股本市场的竞争,仍是一种合理的补充机制。

This article compares and contrasts investments in residential, farmland, and commercial real estate. We also compare real estate investments to more traditional investments in stocks, bonds, commodities, and alternative assets. Price-change returns, rental returns, and total returns from 1991 through 2018 are the focus of the analysis. Including rent is important because rent makes up a significant part of the returns. We include empirically derived implicit net rent data from owner-occupied residences and owner-occupied farmland in the analysis. TOPIC: Real estate Key Findings • High Returns. All three real estate categories did well. But farm real estate had the highest average returns, and the average farm price did not dip during the 2008–2009 subprime mortgage crisis. • Riskiest. Commercial real estate was the riskiest category of real estate investment between 2003 and 2019. And it suffered the largest price dip during the subprime mortgage crisis. • Resolving Uncertainty. Because real estate is relatively illiquid, it is difficult to measure the year to year returns precisely. However, our overall returns from rent and price changes are more informative.
这篇文章对住宅、农田和商业地产的投资进行了比较和对比。我们还将房地产投资与股票、债券、大宗商品和另类资产等更为传统的投资进行了比较。1991年至2018年的价格变化回报、租金回报和总回报是分析的重点。包括租金很重要,因为租金占回报的很大一部分。我们在分析中包括了经验推导的自住住宅和自住农田的隐含净租金数据。主题:房地产主要发现•高回报。所有三个房地产类别都表现良好。但农场地产的平均回报率最高,而且在2008-2009年次贷危机期间,平均农产品价格并未下跌。•风险。2003年至2019年期间,商业房地产是风险最高的房地产投资类别。在次贷危机期间,它遭受了最大的价格下跌。•解决不确定性。由于房地产的流动性相对较差,很难精确地衡量其年回报率。然而,我们从租金和价格变化中获得的总体回报更能提供信息。

Practical Applications of Measuring the Carbon Exposure of Institutional Investors 衡量机构投资者碳暴露的实际应用
IF 0.7 Q3 Economics, Econometrics and Finance Pub Date : 2020-07-31 DOI: 10.3905/jai.22.s4.035

Practical Applications In Measuring the Carbon Exposure of Institutional Investors, from the Summer 2020 issue of The Journal of Alternative Investments, authors Darwin Choi, Zhenyu Gao, and Wenxi Jiang (all of The Chinese University of Hong Kong) present a simple way to measure how heavily institutional portfolios tilt toward or away from stocks of high-carbon-emission firms. They consider two data sources: MSCI’s firm-based Carbon Emission Score and the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) industry classification system. They find that MSCI’s data are less useful because they focus on cleaner firms and create a skewed impression of falling emissions over time. In contrast, the IPCC tracks all US firms, classifies them as high- or low-carbon by industry, and has maintained a constant methodology over time. Choi, Gao, and Jiang combine the IPCC’s data with data from other sources to designate companies in certain industry sectors as high-carbon emitters. They then analyze institutional portfolios and use a formula to determine whether such portfolios tilt toward or away from stocks in those industries. They find that, on average, institutional portfolios were weighted toward high-carbon stocks until 2015—when their high-carbon holdings dropped sharply. Since then, institutional portfolios’ carbon weightings have remained lower than the market average.
《衡量机构投资者碳敞口的实际应用》(Practical Applications In Measureing the Carbon Exposure of Institutional Investors),载于《另类投资杂志》2020年夏季版,作者Darwin Choi、Zhenyu Gao和Wenxi Jiang(均来自香港中文大学)提供了一种简单的方法来衡量机构投资组合在多大程度上倾向于或远离高碳企业的股票。他们考虑了两个数据来源:MSCI基于公司的碳排放评分和联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC)的行业分类系统。他们发现,摩根士丹利资本国际的数据用处不大,因为它们关注的是更清洁的公司,并造成了排放量随时间下降的扭曲印象。相比之下,IPCC跟踪所有美国公司,按行业将其归类为高碳或低碳,并随着时间的推移保持不变的方法。Choi、Gao和Jiang将IPCC的数据与其他来源的数据相结合,将某些行业的公司指定为高碳排放者。然后,他们分析机构投资组合,并使用一个公式来确定这些投资组合是倾向于还是远离这些行业的股票。他们发现,平均而言,机构投资组合一直倾向于高碳股票,直到2015年,它们的高碳持股量急剧下降。自那以后,机构投资组合的碳权重一直低于市场平均水平。

Practical Applications In Is “Greenness” Priced in the Market? Evidence form Green Bond Issuance in China, published in the Summer 2020 issue of The Journal of Alternative Investments, Zhiyao Deng of the London School of Economics and Dragon Yongjun Tang and Yupa Zhang of the University of Hong Kong examine characteristics of the green bond market using a novel dataset from China. The unique data on green bonds in the Chinese database indicate what proportion of the bond proceeds the issuer intends to use for green initiatives. This detail is absent from the datasets examined in previous studies about other countries, and its inclusion here allows for an investigation into concerns about greenwashing. In particular, after controlling for other variables that impact bond yields, the authors assess whether the degree of “greenness” impacts premiums. Additionally, they can observe the value, reflected in a higher bond price, created by independent companies (known as verifiers) that assess the environmental impact of green bonds.
“绿色”在市场上定价吗?发表在《另类投资杂志》2020年夏季版上的《中国绿色债券发行证据》,伦敦经济学院的邓志耀和香港大学的唐勇军和张玉帕使用来自中国的新数据集研究了绿色债券市场的特征。中国数据库中关于绿色债券的独特数据表明,发行人打算将债券收益的多大比例用于绿色倡议。在之前关于其他国家的研究中,数据集中没有这一细节,将其纳入其中可以调查人们对“洗绿”的担忧。特别是,在控制了影响债券收益率的其他变量后,作者评估了“绿色”程度是否会影响溢价。此外,他们可以观察到由评估绿色债券环境影响的独立公司(称为验证器)创建的更高债券价格所反映的价值。

This article provides the first large-sample analysis of buyout and venture capital fund values over their lifetimes. Specifically, the authors examine fund future investment multiples (TVPIs), internal rates of return (IRRs), and direct alphas based on the current reported net asset values (NAVs) at each year of a fund’s life. Using a sample of 1,400 mature buyout and VC funds, they find that the typical fund experiences a falloff in future returns after it is about seven to eight years old. However, the remaining performance is highly variable for funds of all ages, and the dispersion in returns also tends to increase after funds are about eight years old. They examine the cross-sectional determinants of the remaining fund value and find that several fund-specific and market-wide factors determine future performance and that these vary by type and age of fund. For example, young funds tend to be harmed by high market-wide dry powder levels, whereas older funds appear to benefit. TOPICS: Private equity, performance measurement Key Findings ▪ The typical fund experiences a falloff in returns after it is about seven to eight years old. This is true for both VC and buyout funds. ▪ Contrary to common wisdom, the cross-sectional dispersion of fund performance measured by future internal rate of return and direct alpha tends to increase, not decrease, for funds more than five years old. ▪ A wide variety of market-wide and fund-specific factors predict future fund performance. These include to-date distributions, dry powder, previous fund performance, fund size, general partner fundraising activity, previous public market stock returns, and credit spreads. Relevant factors are different for VC funds and buyout funds and can vary systematically over funds’ life cycles.
本文首次对并购基金和风险投资基金的价值进行了大样本分析。具体而言,作者根据基金寿命中每年的当前报告净资产价值(NAV),研究了基金未来投资倍数(TVPI)、内部收益率(IRRs)和直接阿尔法。通过对1400只成熟的收购基金和风险投资基金的样本分析,他们发现,典型的基金在成立约七到八年后,未来回报率会下降。然而,对于所有年龄段的基金来说,剩余业绩都是高度可变的,在基金成立约八年后,回报的分散性也往往会增加。他们研究了剩余基金价值的横截面决定因素,发现几个特定于基金和整个市场的因素决定了未来的业绩,这些因素因基金类型和年龄而异。例如,年轻的基金往往会受到整个市场高干粉水平的伤害,而年长的基金似乎会受益。主题:私募股权,绩效衡量关键发现▪ 典型的基金在成立七到八年后会经历回报率的下降。风险投资基金和收购基金都是如此。▪ 与普遍看法相反,对于成立五年以上的基金,通过未来内部收益率和直接阿尔法衡量的基金业绩的横截面离散度往往会增加,而不是减少。▪ 各种各样的市场和基金特定因素预测未来基金的业绩。其中包括迄今为止的分配、干粉、以前的基金业绩、基金规模、普通合伙人的筹资活动、以前的公开市场股票回报和信用利差。风险投资基金和收购基金的相关因素不同,并且可能在基金的生命周期内系统地变化。

Practical Applications of Green Bonds and Green Bond Funds: The Quest for the Real Impact 绿色债券和绿色债券基金的实际应用:寻求真正的影响
IF 0.7 Q3 Economics, Econometrics and Finance Pub Date : 2020-07-31 DOI: 10.3905/jai.22.s4.032
Gábor Gyura
Practical Applications In Green Bonds and Green Bond Funds: The Quest for the Real Impact, from the Summer 2020 issue of The Journal of Alternative Investments, author Gabor Gyura (of the University of Pecs in Hungary) investigates whether the rise of green bonds can be expected to lead to the completion of more environmentally friendly projects. Green bond issuance has grown dramatically in recent years, and green bond mutual funds are working hard to catch up. However, Gyura notes that not all green bonds finance high-profile environmental efforts like climate change mitigation, and some green bond funds invest more heavily than others in bonds that specifically fund such projects. Gyura also conducted a worldwide survey of bond issuers to determine whether issuing green bonds helped them complete more green projects. His results suggest the answer is no. Most respondents said their green projects would have been completed whether they had issued bonds labeled as green or not—and the main reason they issue green-labeled bonds is to improve their reputation and help them enter the green-finance market. Therefore, Gyura says there is little evidence that the growth of the green bond market will help to complete more green projects.
绿色债券和绿色债券基金的实际应用:寻求真正的影响,来自《另类投资杂志》2020年夏季版,作者Gabor Gyura(匈牙利佩茨大学)调查了绿色债券的兴起是否会导致更环保的项目的完成。近年来,绿色债券发行量大幅增长,绿色债券共同基金正在努力追赶。然而,Gyura指出,并非所有的绿色债券都为缓解气候变化等高调的环境努力提供资金,一些绿色债券基金在专门资助此类项目的债券上的投资比其他基金更多。Gyura还对债券发行人进行了一项全球调查,以确定发行绿色债券是否有助于他们完成更多的绿色项目。他的研究结果表明,答案是否定的。大多数受访者表示,无论他们是否发行了绿色债券,他们的绿色项目都会完成——他们发行绿色债券的主要原因是提高声誉,帮助他们进入绿色金融市场。因此,Gyura表示,几乎没有证据表明绿色债券市场的增长将有助于完成更多的绿色项目。

Practical Applications of Green Bond Pricing: The Search for Greenium 绿色债券定价的实际应用:寻找Greenium
IF 0.7 Q3 Economics, Econometrics and Finance Pub Date : 2020-07-31 DOI: 10.3905/jai.22.s4.031
Candace Partridge, Medda Francesca Romana
Practical Applications In Green Bond Pricing: The Search for Greenium from the Summer 2020 issue of The Journal of Alternative Investments, authors Candace Partridge and Francesca Romana Medda (both of University College London) explore whether green bonds—those that support environmentally sustainable projects like clean-energy production—can fetch high prices and provide competitive returns. The authors ask whether there is a green premium—or “greenium”—in the pricing or performance of green municipal bonds and find that generally they fetch the same up-front price as nongreen bonds in the primary market but provide higher returns on the secondary market. Partridge and Medda say this difference exists because governments sell bonds primarily to a small number of institutional investors on the primary market, whereas a wider range of investors can buy on the secondary market. More competition for green bonds equals more demand, which raises prices and produces more visible greenium.

绿色债券定价的实际应用:《寻找绿色》摘自2020年夏季《另类投资杂志》,作者坎迪斯·帕特里奇和弗朗西斯卡·罗曼娜·梅达(均来自伦敦大学学院)探讨了绿色债券——那些支持清洁能源生产等环境可持续项目的债券——能否获得高价格并提供有竞争力的回报。作者询问绿色市政债券的定价或表现是否存在绿色溢价,并发现它们通常在一级市场上获得与非绿色债券相同的前期价格,但在二级市场上提供更高的回报。帕特里奇和梅达表示,之所以存在这种差异,是因为政府主要在一级市场上向少数机构投资者出售债券,而更多的投资者可以在二级市场上购买债券。对绿色债券的更多竞争意味着更多的需求,这会提高价格并产生更多可见的绿色。在一级市场,绿色债券的主要好处可能是提高了发行城市和州的ESG投资者的形象。

The authors ask whether there is a green premium—or “greenium”—in the pricing or performance of green municipal bonds and find that generally they fetch the same up-front price as nongreen bonds in the primary market but provide higher returns on the secondary market. Partridge and Medda say this difference exists because governments sell bonds primarily to a small number of institutional investors on the primary market, whereas a wider range of investors can buy on the secondary market.

Practical Applications In Be Prepared: Exploring Future Climate-Related Risk for Residential and Commercial Real Estate Portfolios, from the Summer 2020 issue of The Journal of Alternative Investments, Mark Westcott of Vivid Economics, John Ward of Pengwern Associates, Swenja Surminsky of Vivid Economics, Paul Sayers of Sayers and Partners, David Bresch of ETH Zurich, and Bronwyn Claire of the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership demonstrate the beneficial uses of two climate change models. A primary benefit of using these models is to effect a social change whereby builders and property owners adopt climate adaptation measures at a faster pace. The models expose the physical risks of real estate properties and estimate the risk reduction due to climate adaptation measures. The authors discuss several adaptation methods to mitigate the exposed risks, and their results illustrate the importance of doing so. The results provide a stark comparison between the estimated costs of mitigated and unmitigated damage occurring across a wide range of future temperature scenarios.
准备中的实际应用:探讨住宅和商业房地产投资组合的未来气候相关风险,来自《另类投资杂志》2020年夏季号,生动经济的马克·韦斯科特、Pengwern Associates的约翰·沃德、生动经济的斯文加·苏明斯基、Sayers and Partners的保罗·塞耶斯、苏黎世联邦理工学院的大卫·布雷什和剑桥可持续发展领导力研究所的布朗温·克莱尔展示了两种气候变化模型的有益用途。使用这些模型的一个主要好处是促进社会变革,使建筑商和业主更快地采取适应气候变化的措施。这些模型揭示了房地产的物理风险,并估计了由于气候适应措施而降低的风险。作者讨论了几种缓解暴露风险的适应方法,他们的结果说明了这样做的重要性。结果提供了在未来大范围温度情景下减轻和未减轻损害的估计成本之间的鲜明对比。
