Heard at the NFAs over breakfast: the biggest marketing issue with the launch of a new ETF is the ticker symbol choice. Cute/memorable works. Suggested (only half joking) by Mike Gallmeyer: have an auction price for tickers just like seats at the exchange. @nfa_ca

Thank you very much @Jos_Schmitt @ErikSloane @Aequitas_NEO for your support of academic research! #NFA2018

Now listening to Anna Scherbina’s paper on the impact of gender on fund manager career outcomes - women more likely to leave industry, less likely to get new funds to manage, and trends are flat since financial crisis. Sources of bias unclear.

At Northern Finance meeting in Quebec listening to the lunch keynote by Pierre Collin-Dufresne. Index CDS trading volume at $100b/day and in spite of Dodd-Frank the market is still bifurcated. Client trades are expensive & have large mkt impact @nfa_ca

@nfa_ca Another good gender paper, “Origins and Real Effects of the Gender Gap”, this one on CEO allocation of capital to managers by gender. To paraphrase, misogynist CEOs allocate less capital to female managers and generate poorer firm performance.

This is such a touching and fitting tribute to my late friend and @rotmanschool colleague, Peter Christoffersen. He was both brilliant and a joy to spend time with. I can’t help but smile myself whenever I think of his ear-to-ear smile.

Is There Still a Home Bias in Global Investing? - https://t.co/95YQCt4GlJ #NFA2018 paper @ccakebread
International equity mutual funds that hire managers from a country linked to the fund’s geographic mandate exhibit a strong bias to invest in stocks of that country.
