Descripción:Mutual funds are frequently classified according to their investment objective; however, this methodology does not guarantee that the products formed in the same group have a similar level of return, risk, and performance. For this reason, this study proposes a classification method using the conglomerate analysis technique for the 92 mutual funds in the Costa Rican market. As a result, it was possible to separate the 92 mutual funds into 8 different groups by the grouping method called partition around medoids (PAM). This proposal can facilitate investors and other actors better strategic planning and decision making from a financial perspective.
