Active Equity Mutual Funds and Funding Liquidity • Asset fire sales (Coval and Stafford, JFE, 2007) – fund manager needs to liquidate at below fundamental values when a fund underperforms and investors withdraw • Capital-constrained assets are even more difficult to liquidate • The main hypothesis: This extra risk of holding capital-constrained assets should have extra reward Christoffersen, Goyenko, Jacobs, and Karoui Ruslan Goyenko Illiquidity Premia in the Equity Options Market Treasury Illiquidity and Funding Liquidity Risk

Active Equity Mutual Funds and Funding Liquidity: Hypotheses • H1: Small size funds with higher bond illiquidity beta portfolios have higher risk-adjusted returns compared to medium and large funds with high/low beta portfolios • H2: Funds with higher expenses and higher bond illiquidity beta portfolio have higher risk adjusted returns compared to funds with low expenses and low/high beta portfolios • H3: Funds with higher turnover and higher bond illiquidity beta portfolio have higher risk adjusted returns compared to funds with low turnover and low/high beta portfolios Christoffersen, Goyenko, Jacobs, and Karoui Ruslan Goyenko Illiquidity Premia in the Equity Options Market Treasury Illiquidity and Funding Liquidity Risk

Conclusions • This paper links Treasury bond illiquidity and funding liquidity • Applications: stocks with higher bond illiquidity betas earn higher risk-adjusted returns compared to lower bond illiquidity beta stocks (49 basis points per month) • Bond illiquidity beta has positive and significant risk premium after controlling for Fama-French and Carhart factors and firm characteristics such as size, book-to-market and stock illiquidity. • Funds in the highest bond illiquidity beta decile outperform funds in the lowest decile by about 80 basis points per month. • Smaller funds and higher bond illiq-beta – higher alpha • Higher expenses and higher bond illiq-beta – higher alpha • Higher turnover and higher bond illiq-beta – higher alpha Christoffersen, Goyenko, Jacobs, and Karoui Ruslan Goyenko Illiquidity Premia in the Equity Options Market Treasury Illiquidity and Funding Liquidity Risk
