| Abstract | ||
| Mutual funds are expanding as one of the financial intermediaries. But the presence of asymmetric information in financial markets and the possibility of encouraging fund managers to make risky selections can jeopardize the interests of investors. Financial supervision by controlling the riskiness of funds is one of the ways to support investors. In this paper, the effects of financial supervision components on the risk of 18 Equity mutual funds in Iran during the period 2010-2019 are examined. According to the nature of the dependent variable, the credit risk of the mutual funds, model estimation and data analysis has been done by a Panel Quantile Regression Approach. The results show that the four components of profitability, liquidity quality, asset quality and market risk sensitivity as components of financial supervision have a negative and significant effect on the risk of low and high risk quantile funds. Also, the effect of two components of management quality and sensitivity to market risks on the risk of the middle risk quantile has been negative and significant. Therefore, the regulator of these funds should follow the formulation and implementation of regulatory rules based on financial solvency with emphasis on these components, especially in high risk quantile funds, in order to further protect the interests of investors. | ||
