Abstract
The relation between net fund flows and performance is examined around the two most recent U.S. economic recessions for U.S. equity funds. Post-recessionary period net fund flows are positively (negatively) correlated with absolute (peer-relative) performance for the early 2000s recession, and with absolute and peer-relative performance for the Great Recession (the most recent one) according to nonparametric measures. Empirical copulas in the extreme left tails indicate a positive dependence for the early 2000s recession, and independence for the Great Recession between performance and net fund flows.
