Abstract

Recent studies find that target firm returns are reduced following sovereign wealth fund (SWF) investment. Although risk is also reduced following SWF investment, they find that SWF investment is associated with a reduction in the compensation of risk.In this paper, weexamine the hypothesis that sovereign weal funds’ poor performance is partly due to their poor information about the target firms and find some support for the hypothesis.
