ACTIVE-SHARE STUDY
An academic study made by the researchers from Yale back in 2006. Active-share study inspects the stock holdings proportion in a composition of a mutual fund that was distinctive from the composition seen in its benchmark. The higher the difference between the benchmark and the asset composition of the fund, the greater the active share.
As provided in the active-share study, a positive correlation can be found between the performance and active-share value of the fund against its benchmark.
