Different Risk-Adjusted Fund Performance Measures: A Comparison
Traditional risk-adjusted performance measures, such as the Sharpe ratio, the Treynor index or Jensen’s alpha, based on the mean-variance framework, are widely used to rank mutual funds. However, performance measures that consider risk by taking into account only losses, such as Value-at-Risk (VaR), would be more appropriate. Standard VaR assumes that returns are normally distributed, though th...
متن کاملA Bayesian approach to risk-adjusted outcome monitoring in healthcare.
Clinical outcomes are commonly monitored in healthcare practices to detect changes in care providers' performance. One key challenge in outcome monitoring is the need of adjustment for patient base-line risks. Various control charting methods have been developed to conduct risk-adjusted outcome monitoring, but they all rely on the availability of a large number of historical data. We propose a ...
متن کاملTarget symptoms and outcome measures: cognition.
The Cognitive section of the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS-Cog) remains the most widely used cognitive measure in dementia trials although it does not assess attention, executive function, or agnosia. Designed for use in Alzheimer's disease (AD), it may not be ideal in assessing patients with other diagnoses. The ADAS-Cog differentiates between AD patients, patients with Mild Cogni...
متن کاملRisk-adjusted probability measures in portfolio optimization with coherent measures of risk
We consider the problem of optimizing a portfolio of n assets, whose returns are described by a joint discrete distribution. We formulate the mean–risk model, using as risk functionals the semideviation, deviation from quantile, and spectral risk measures. Using the modern theory of measures of risk, we derive an equivalent representation of the portfolio problem as a zero-sum matrix game, and ...
متن کاملLiquidity-adjusted Market Risk Measures with Stochastic Holding Period
Within the context of risk integration, we introduce in risk measurement stochastic holding period (SHP) models. This is done in order to obtain a ‘liquidity-adjusted risk measure’ characterized by the absence of a fixed time horizon. The underlying assumption is that due to changes on market liquidity conditions one operates along an ‘operational time’ to which the P&L process of liquidating a...
