ABSTRACTThis study aims to determine information on asymmetry (between realized return and expected returns) on market timing ability in the Indonesian Mutual Fund Industry. The variables of this study consist of mutual fund total returns, market excess returns, small-minus-big, high-minus-low, market timing abilities, and asymmetric information. The researcher used a panel of data on 129 open-ended non-sharia mutual fund products consisting of equity, fixed-income, mix, and money market mutual funds with annual data for 2010-2017. This study uses the Fama-French 3 Factors Model and Asymmetric Information-Dierkens Model. The results of this research indicate that in the overall research sample, the average investment manager has the ability to market timing. In addition, it was found that market timing ability is very significant by asymmetrical information.
