Abstract

We use the arbitrage performance bounds of Ahn, Cao and Chretien (2003) to
evaluate UK unit trust performance between January 1988 and December 2002.We find that trust
performance is sensitive to the admissible stochastic discount factor used for both the average
trust and the majority of individual trusts. The investment style, size, load charge, and annual
charge of the trust all have an impact on trust performance. We find for some trusts, the Jensen
(1968) and Ferson and Schadt (1996) measures do not satisfy arbitrage bounds by the base assets.
