Summary/Abstract: We investigate the performance and time varying risk behavior of Hungarian equity mutual funds by applying the modified version of the four-factor model using the Central Eastern European index as a market proxy. We classify the funds according to their target markets (Hungary, Central and Eastern Europe, developed markets) and separate bullish and bearish periods.
