Which type of fund is most affected by manager changes?
Choose wisely. There is only one correct answer.
One-manager funds. If a fund lists only one fund manager and that manager leaves, the fund may be poised for change. If only one member leaves from a team, in contrast, there should be some continuity in the fund's performance.

When a manager leaves a fund you own, what should you do?
Choose wisely. There is only one correct answer.
It depends. If the fund was team managed or if the family has other skilled managers on staff, staying the course isn't a bad idea. If it's an index fund or a fund from a category with a modest range of returns, there's probably no reason to sell at all.
