“…Porém, apenas recentemente a possibilidade da ocorrência de sazonalidades na indústria de fundos tem sido objeto de estudos (Alves, 2014;Białkowski et al, 2013;Brown et al, 2017;Choi, 2015;Choi, Ryu, & Seok, 2017;Gallagher & Pinnuck, 2006;Kamstra et al, 2017;Malaquias & Mamede, 2015;Mamede & Malaquias, 2017;Matallín-Sáez, 2006;Vidal-García & Vidal, 2014). A busca por pesquisas sob este tema foi feita nos principais repositórios científicos nacionais 1 e internacionais 2 , contemplando o período 2006-2018 utilizando diferentes combinações das seguintes palavras chaves: "sazonalidade" "fundos de investimento" "padrões sazonais" "anomalias de mercado" "efeito calendário" "efeito janeiro" "fluxo financeiro" "fundos de ações".…”
