	Active management - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The reality of active management is as follows: the majority of actively managed mutual funds, ETF, etc. very rarely outperform their index counterparts (assuming that it is benchmarked correctly), and when successful only usually by a few percentage points.
		Active management is the opposite of passive management, where the manager does not seek to outperform his index.
		Private-equity is often real active management since a privately owned company have a small number of owners and usually have just one owner that make strategy decisions at the board level.

	Marsden Wagner: The Active Management of Labour (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Active management illustrates the confusion in the medical approach as to what is normal and what is pathological in birth.
		In active management, if a woman's labor was not progressing at a rate they arbitrarily defined as satisfactory, the doctors said she was suffering from "dystocia" and needed oxytocin.
		While the most important current explicit justification for the use of active management is the reduction in cesarean section rates, an analysis of the components of active management for their ability to lower cesarean section rates is quite revealing.

		It is, of course, possible for the average professionally or institutionally actively managed dollar to outperform the average passively managed dollar, after costs, For this to take place, however, the non-institutional, individual investors must be foolish enough to pay the added costs of the institutions' active management via inferior performance.
		To compute the latter, each manager's return should be weighted by the dollars he or she has under management at the beginning of the period.
		As a result, the "average active manager" tends to be beaten badly in periods when small-capitalization stocks underperform large-capitalization stocks, but may exceed the market's performance in periods when small-capitalization stocks do well.

	Active vs. Passive Management
		Active management is the art of stock picking and market timing.
		Active managers, on the other hand, are far more benign.

	Active Portfolio Management
		Active investing involves being 'overweight' in securities and sectors that you believe to be undervalued and 'underweight' in assets you believe to be overvalued.
		Yet investment managers are competing hard to manage institutional and individual investors' money and it is not surprising that they make claims about their market-beating potential - usually using active strategies - and, where possible, their market-beating performance records.
		Of course, if you believe in active investing, it is best not to judge a manager by their past performance indicators but rather by the plans by which they expect to add value through outperformance.
