Non-life insurance policies often last for a short-term (one year or less) as opposite to the long-term and even permanent life insurance policies. INSURANCE COMPANIES

  7. INVESTMENT COMPANIES They are financial intermediaries that sell funds to the public and invest the proceeds in a diversified portfolio of securities. This portfolio is managed by the investment company on the behalf of its shareholders.

  9. MUTUAL FUNDS Funds comprised of various types of securities. Such as common stock, bonds, MM instruments and combination of them. Since each investor may sell their shares or buy new shares each business day, they are called as “open-end investment companies”. Each mutual fund has a manager or investment advisor.

  10. The price of each share is Net Asset Value (NAV): • NAV = Mrk. Value of the port – Liabilities Nr. Of shares outstanding • NAV is determined only once in day , at the close of the day)

  11. Closed-End Funds • The shares of closoed –end funds are like the shares of the common stock. • The new shares of the closed end fund are initially issued by an underwriter for the fund. • After the new issue the number of shares are remains constant

  12. Unit Trust • They are like closed-end funds in that the number of unit certificates are fixed. • They specialize in bonds.

  13. Differences btw Open-end Funds (Companies) (Mutual Funds) and Closed-end Funds (Companies) Purchased its shares from the fund. Redeemable Shares are being sold on a continues basis More liquid securities • Traded in the secondary market. • Not redeemable • They do not continuesly offer their shares for sale • They are permitted to invest in a greater amount of “illiquid” secutities than mutual funds

  14. Similarities of the open-end and closed-end funds Both funds are managed by seperate entities known as “investment advisors” that are registered by the SEC. Both can come in many varities. They are subject to SEC registration and regulation are are subject to numerous requirements imposed for the protection of investors.

  15. Differences btw Unit Inv. Trusts (UITs) and Mutual Funds Have a termination date Make a one-time public offering of fixed amount of units Buy and hold a fixed portfolio of stocks, bonds etc. concentrated in a particular industry.

Advisor You can buy or sell at any time • Never expire • No fixed amount. • Diversification is essencial . It must hold a min. Nr. of diff. Securities • Can sell and buy securities frequently. • Have an inv. advisor • Buy or sell at the end of the trading day.

  16. Similarities of the Mutual Funds and UITs Their shares are both redeemable. Closed-end funds are not redeemable. They must both calculate the NAV at least once every business day after the major US exchanges are closed. Closed-end funds are not subject to this requirement. The share price of them are based on; Per share NAV+fees at purchase (sales load, purchase fees) The price the investors receive at redemption; app. NAV-fees (deferred sales loads or redemption fees)

  17. Fund Sales Charges and Annual Operating Expenses • There are two types of costs for the mutual fund investors; • Shareholder fee (sales charge): One –time charge for a specific trensaction such as purchase, redemption and etc. • Annual operating expenses (expense ratio): is debited annually from the investor’s fund balance by the fund sponsor such as management fee, investment advisory fee and etc.

  29. CM Entities in Turkey There are several participants in the capital markets. The new Turkish Law 6362 refers to 11 of them, which are titled “capital market institutions” in the article 35 as follows: Investment firms (Yatırım Kuruluşları) Collective investment firms (Kolektif Yat. Kuruluşları) Auditing, rating, scoring firms(Bağımsız denetim, değerleme ve derecelendirme kuruluşları)

  30. Portfolio management corporations (Portföy yönetim şirketleri) • Mortgage finance corporations( İpotek Finansmanı kuruluşları) • Housing finance and asset finance mutual funds (Konut finansmanı ve varlık finansmanı fonları) • Asset leasing corporations (for Islamic Bonds.ie., Sukuku İcara) (Varlık kiralama şirketleri)

  31. Central Clearing houses (Merkezi takas kuruluşları) • Custodian houses (Merkezi saklama kuruluşları) • Data storage houses (Trade repositories)(Veri depolama kuruluşları) • Others(Diğer sermaye piyasası kurumları)

  32. 1. Investment Firms (Yatırım Kuruluşları) According to the Law 6362, 3 (v), investment instiutions consist of; - Investment firms (Aracı kurumlar) - Banks

  33. Investment Firms • MiFID (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive) refers to “banks and investment firms” as “providing investment services such as brokerage, advice, dealing, portfolio management, underwriting, et al”. • We may deduce two things out of this: • Investment firms and banks are considered together in providing investment services • Dealers and brokers are only part of the investment firms

  34. The Law 6362, likewise, refers to investment firms and banks as “investment institutions” (yatırım kuruluşu) in its sub article (v) of the article 3. • In the USA “dealer” means any person who engages either for all part of his time, directly or indirectly, as agent, broker, or principal, in the business of offering, buying, selling. Or otherwise dealing or trading in securities issued by another person (Securities Act 1933 – 2/12). “Broker” means any person engaged in the business of affecting transactions in securities for the accounts of others (Securities Exchange Act 1934-4/A).

  35. Broker does business for the others only, yet dealers may do business either in his name or account, or for the others. • In Turkish regulations, however, there is no reference to “dealer” or “broker”, these words are in use, and be it erroneously. • Turkish capital markets call the customer representative at the counters of banks or intermediary institution “aracı kurum” as “dealer”, and those who are seated in front of the monitors at the Borsa Istanbul as “brokers”!

  36. Investment services and activities of Investment firms (aracı kurum) in Turkey • They receive and send orders for the capital market instruments • They realize orders in their name and in their own account or in their name and in their customers’ account • They buy or sell capital market instruments from their own account. • They intervene public offerings of capital market instruments through underwring. • They intervene public offerings through best efford selling.

  37. 2. Collective investment firms • These are definitions that the old Capital Markets Act of Turkey had no reference. • Collective investment firms are made up of the “mutual funds” (yatırım fonları), and “unit investment trusts” (yatırım ortaklıkları) (6362 3/m). • Previously, in Turkey for example, banks, investment firms (brokers/dealers), insurance companies as well as pension funds were allowed, subject of course to the Capital Markets Board’s approval, to set up “mutual funds”. Henceforth, the authorized “portfolio management companies” only will have this right.

  38. Collective investment firms • As regards the unit investment trusts, they are set to make use of the portfolio management services of a unit investment trust. • Second momentous change has been on the capital of the unit investment trusts. • Previously, they were allowed to have a semi-open-ended capital structure. With the advent of the new Law, open-ended capital structures for the unit investment trusts have been made possible. • According to the article 50 of the new Law, their capital will always be equal to their net-asset-values. The net-asset-value of the unit investment trusts will be found by deducting total liabilities from total assets.

  39. On the other hand, the capital of open-ended unit investment trusts will be the total of investors’ shares (yatırımcı payları), and set-up shares (kurucu payları). • There will be no nominal value of the open-ended unit investment trusts. • Open-ended unit investment trusts are required to refund the shares on the investors’ demand. • Investor shares do not enable the holders any management prerogatives.

  40. Collective investment firms • The adjective “collective” is, again, a new defining attribute. • These institutions are for portfolio management on the very basic principle of risk diversification.But the new regulations, MiFID of the EU and Turkish 6362, do not make reference to this previous “diversification” principle.

  41. 2.1. Mutual Funds • As in the old Capital Markets Act (2499), the new one (6362) gives the definition for the mutual fund as portfolio management entities that are not incorporated, meaning with separate assets, on the basis of fiduciary ownership. • Portfolio management companies are earmarked to set up, manage and represent; and even audit the mutual funds (6362/52-3)

  42. Mutual Funds The basics of the definition for mutual funds are; • They are set up for the sole purpose of portfolio management • They are unincorporated entities (no legal identities) • They are set up and managed and even audited by portfolio management companies on behalf of investors on the following bases: • Management is based on fiduciary ownership (İnançlı mülkiyet) • Management is based on proxy relationship (Vekalet ilişkisi) (Turkish Code of Obligation articles 502 & 514 applicable in case of ambiguity) • Management has to be strictly in line with the fund’s bylaw (Fon İç Tüzüğü)

  43. Types of the Mutual Funds in Turkey A Type Fund: These funds are accounted for by at least 25% stock of companies that are founded and operate in Turkey. B Type Fund: These funds are “the other types” than A type funds that do not have any limitations.

  44. Names of the Mutual Funds in Turkey If at least 51% of the portfolio consists of; bonds and bills, it is called as bonds and bills fund common stocks, it is called as common stock fund foreign securities, it is called as foreign securities fund gold and other precious metal, it is called as gold and other precious metals fund the securities of the main company and its sub-companies, it is called as group fund If the whole fund consist of ; At least two of the following instruments; common stock, bond, bills, gold and other precious metals and other capital market instruments and also the value of investment in each instrument at most 20% of the fund value, it is called as mixed fund financial instruments which has at least 90 days maturities, it is called as liquid fund.

  50. 2.3. Hedge funds • In Turkey, new announcements are expected to emerge out of the Turkish Capital Market Board under the new Law 6362. • Present legislation about the hedge funds is the Communique of the SPK Serial VII No. 10. It defines these funds as free funds (Serbest Yatırım Fonu), and “Serbest Yatırım Fonları are for the “qualified investors” only”. • Nonetheless Turkish regulations require that these funds should develop their risk management systems. • The participation certificates of these funds do not trade at exchanges in Turkey.
