CNBC's Bob Pisani spoke with Tom Lydon, Vice Chairman at Vetta-Fi, and Anu Ganti, Senior Director of Index Investment Strategy at S&P Dow Jones Indices. They delved into the age-old debate of active versus passive management. With market volatility on the rise, many active fund managers claim this is their time to shine – and according to the latest SPIVA survey out from S&P Dow Jones Indices, actively managed funds are enjoying their best performance against their benchmarks in over a decade. But is all that enough to beat out passive investing in the long run? In the Markets ‘102' portion of the podcast, Bob continues the conversation with Tom Lydon.

Siamo nel Settembre 2015 e l'allora ministro dell'economia e delle finanze peruviano, Alonso Segura Vasi, è costretto a cambiare repentinamente i suoi piani per volare a nord dell'equatore. Il motivo pare sia dovuto ad un… diciamo pettegolezzo. Un rumour, direbbero in inglese.In pochi minuti Alonso Segura è già su un jet diretto negli Stati Uniti. E badate bene, il ministro non è diretto alla Casa Bianca, questo non è un incontro tra ufficiali per discutere i rapporti tra le due nazioni. Il volo è verso New York, e gli uffici dove è diretto sono privatissimi, a due passi da Wall Street. Sono gli uffici della MSCI, il famoso fornitore di indici.Il motivo che ha spinto il ministro a mettersi su un volo intercontinentale è esattamente lo stesso che ha spinto i nostri due Yankees a compiere un atto illegale di insider trading: in ballo, ci sono miliardi di dollari.Nel capitolo finale di questa storia, a noi di Bank Station non resta che parlarvi di coloro che sono usciti vincitori dalla crescita di popolarità dei fondi passivi che tracciano gli indici. Ovvero coloro che li creano, gli indici. E decidono quindi chi è fuori… e chi è dentro.Siamo Giammarco Miani, Francesco Namari e Gaia Geraci, and the next stop is...

Ci siamo quasi. Il giorno del ribilanciamento degli indici della S&P si fa sempre più vicino.James, nel cercare di convincere Yuanbiao ad aiutarlo nella sua impresa criminale, ripercorre la storia dei fondi passivi, raccontando gli ostacoli che hanno incontrato tra gli investitori e il supporto che hanno invece trovato nella realtà accademica.I primi fondi passivi degli anni 70 e le intuizioni di Jack Bogle. Le ostruzioni degli investitori che bollavano questi fondi come comunisti e non-americani (perché replicare il mercato era un compito da… beh, perdenti). E poi il CAPM, la realtà accademica, Michael Jensen e non solo, che guardavano con scetticismo al mondo dei fondi attivi e con grande interesse a quello dei fondi passivi. I masters of the universe riescono davvero a battere il mercato come millantano? Come ci racconta James, tutto questo comincia a cambiare con la grande recessione del 2007, che spazza via lontano i ricordi dei ritorni strepitosi del mercato pre-crisi e comincia a far scricchiolare il business model dei fondi attivi, che rimaneva dipendente da elevate commissioni.Ma l'ascesa dei fondi passivi passa anche dall'innovazione finanziaria; in questo ambiente di ritorni depressi uno strumento nato negli anni 90 inizia a prendere sempre più piede, facilitando enormemente la crescita del denaro investito nei fondi passivi: gli Exchange Traded Funds. Il terzo capitolo di questa storia passa proprio da questo prodotto, da ciò che lo ha reso così popolare, dalle sue caratteristiche e perché no, anche da un bouquet di fiori!Siamo Giammarco Miani, Francesco Namari e Gaia Geraci, and the next stop is...

Il secondo episodio della nostra saga sul passive management e gli index providers.Il ribilanciamento dell’indice è in arrivo e James e Yuanbiao sono pronti ad anticipare le mosse del mercato. Il piano è chiaro: James, utilizzando la sua posizione di insider alla S&P DJI, con l’aiuto di Yuanbiao, scommetterà sulle aziende che verranno incluse ed escluse dall’indice prima che la notizia arrivi al mercato, per tirar su una fortuna. Ma c’è qualcosa che tormenta ancora Yuanbiao: com’è possibile che il solo ribilanciamento di un indice, cioè il cambiamento di una semplice lista di aziende, abbia un impatto così grande sui prezzi delle azioni, tale che se anticipato possa fruttare milioni? Il loro piano si basa sull’idea che una volta ribilanciati gli indici, i fondi passivi saranno costretti a ribilanciare a loro volta i loro investimenti comprando e vendendo azioni. Il quesito che si pone Yuanbiao, quindi, non è scontato: ci sono davvero così tanti soldi investiti nei fondi passivi? Così tanti da influenzare il prezzo delle azioni che comprano e vendono?Per rispondere a queste domande vi trasporteremo attraverso anni di storia economica e finanziaria. Attraverso i primi fondi negli anni 70, le intuizioni di Jack Bogle, e le teorie finanziarie di Harry Markowitz, Jack Treynor, William Sharpe, e Michael Jensen.Quindi allacciate le cinture, e tenetevi forte. Il secondo capitolo di questa saga passa attraverso il passive investing, i fondi passivi, la loro nascita e la loro storia.Siamo Giammarco Miani, Francesco Namari e Gaia Geraci, and the next stop is...

Il 21 Settembre 2020 la Securities and Exchange Commission, l’agenzia americana responsabile della supervisione dei mercati finanziari, ha presentato una denuncia a carico di un certo James Yang, un manager alla Standard & Poor’s Dow Jones Indices, e a carico di un suo amico, Yuanbiao Chen, manager di un ristorante di sushi. L’accusa non è leggera: aver generato quasi 1 milione di dollari attraverso delle operazioni di insider trading.La cifra può sembrare notevole, ma non è così nel contesto dell’insider trading e delle grandi frodi che hanno avuto luogo a Wall Street.Ma allora cosa c'è di particolare in questo evento?La cosa che rende questa storia diversa dai precedenti casi di insider trading, è che James non lavorava per una banca d’affari o per un grosso hedge fund. No, James era un impiegato della Standard & Poor’s Dow Jones Indices, divisione della più conosciuta Standard & Poor’s Global. Un semplice fornitore di indici, o index provider in inglese. Sorge quindi una domanda: come ci arriva l’inside information ad un dipendente di un fornitore di indici?Restate sintonizzati, per venire a capo di questo quesito abbiamo preparato per voi quattro episodi un po’ più complessi del solito. Ma credeteci, comprendere a fondo questo caso di insider trading è fondamentale perché per quanto minuscolo è il simbolo di una nuova era della finanza mondiale.Siamo Giammarco Miani, Francesco Namari e Gaia Geraci, and the next stop is...

Ken explores the concepts of passive and active management. What are the assets in your life that should be actively managed as to not go into disarray? Things that you should actively manage include your business, time, money, family relationships as well as a few others. Dan Sullivan once said human creativity, innovation and leadership can not be commoditized - hurrah for active management! However, active management doesn’t have a place in investment portfolios. People who try to beat the market generally don’t win over time. The market is volatile, thus portfolio diversification and passive investment is ideal.

By Scott Ronalds Many studies on active vs. passive management draw the conclusion that the latter strategy (more commonly known as ‘indexing’) is superior because it generates higher returns. Notwithstanding the ‘sloppiness’ of some of these comparisons, it is true that many active managers underperform their benchmark. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Most active managers aren’t given a fighting chance. They are burdened by impediments such as high fees, tight constraints and a focus on short-term performance. When these issues are addressed, it’s a different ball game. In this podcast, Tom expands on the active vs. passive debate. In doing so, he sheds some light on his Globe and Mail article from last weekend, and points to a recent piece on the topic published by Morningstar.
