Abstract
This study examines whether clientele effects are important in the evaluation of the performance of U.S. international equity closed-end funds (CEF) using the best clientele (BC) performance measure of Chretien and Kammoun (2017), and alternative stochastic discount factor models based on global factor models. The study finds that clientele effects are important when evaluating the performance of international CEFs, as there are significant differences between the BC performance and performance using the global factor models. International CEF provide significant superior performance using the BC measure and neutral performance with the global factor models.
