The motivation for this study comes from identifying the relationship between macroeconomic conditions and mutual fund performance simultaneously is very important because it has significant implications in efforts to improve mutual fund performance against macroeconomic conditions. However, there are limitations to empirical studies on the impact of these mutual funds because the data year series is limited to only a few years.

Meanwhile, macroeconomic variables that do not have a significant influence on the performance of protected mutual funds are interest rate (SBI) and inflation (INF) variables. The variable age and size of mutual funds have a significant influence on the performance of protected mutual funds. In addition to these independent variables, this study also used moderator / moderating variables.
