Abstract
Part 2 of a two-part article reviewing the comprehensive, global, regional and multifunctional mutual fund resources available free on the World Wide Web (WWW). For Part 1 see Business Information Review, 13(2) June 1996, 91– 100. Whereas the resources reported in Part 1 were global in nature, those reported in Part 2 are regional and country specific. Resources are grouped into six geographic regions: the USA; the UK; other countries in the European Union; Asia-Pacific region; and emerging markets in Latin America, Eastern Europe, Africa and the Far East. Within each region, resources are arranged by five categories: subject hubs (full service sites); directories and indexes; performance data; reference guides, news and other resources; and mutual fund company profiles. Criteria used to evaluate the Web sites include: language; producer or authority; scope and special features; currency or stability; ease of use.
