The study looked at how different fees affect the amount of money flowing in and out of mutual funds in Thailand. They compared fees like management fees and front-end load fees for different types of funds. They found that investors in bank-related funds care more about ongoing expenses, while those in non-bank related funds are more attracted to advertising. Front-end load fees didn't affect fund flows much, but investors paid attention to changes in them. Overall, investors in bank-related funds were more sensitive to fees compared to those in non-bank related funds.
