Abstract
This paper examines flows of foreign mutual funds during the Asian
financial crisis. We compare the patterns of fund flows to changes in the stock
markets and foreign exchange markets of seven countries in the crisis. We find
that stock prices fall and foreign funds flow out before the crashes of exchange rates
in most countries. However, the magnitude of net fund flows are small compare to
the size or transaction volume of the local stock markets, thus the flee of foreign
capital is not likely to be the major cause of the Asian crisis. After the crisis, the
magnitude of fund flows goes down significantly comparing their previous levels.
The correlation between fund flows and local stock market returns are mixed, thus
we can not judge whether local investors posses information advantage over foreign
investors. In addition to the fund flow analyses, we also examine the relation
between the daily prices and net asset values of a Taiwan closed-end fund listed in
the NYSE, using the Granger causality and VAR analyses. The empirical results
indicate that fund prices adjust quickly to changes in NAVs before the crisis. The
speed of adjustments goes down in the crisis period. It seems that American
investors take longer to digest big changes in the Taiwan market.
