Return Measures
Dollar-weighted returns
Captures cash flows during the evaluation period Equivalent to internal rate of return Equates initial value of portfolio (investment) with cash inflows or outflows and ending value of portfolio Cash flow effects make comparisons to benchmarks inappropriate
22-7
Return Measures
Time-weighted returns
Captures cash flows during the evaluation period and permits comparisons with benchmarks Calculate a return relative for each time period defined by a cash inflow or outflow Use each return relative to calculate a compound rate of return for the entire period
22-8
Dollar-weighted returns appropriate for portfolio owners Time-weighted returns appropriate for portfolio managers
22-9
Risk Measures
Risk differences cause portfolios to respond differently to market changes Total risk measured by the standard deviation of portfolio returns Nondiversifiable risk measured by a securitys beta
22-10
Risk-Adjusted Performance
Benchmark based on the ex post capital market line RVAR TR p RF /SDp =Average excess return / total risk Risk premium per unit of risk The higher, the better the performance Provides a ranking measure for portfolios
22-11
Risk-Adjusted Performance
=Average excess return / market risk Risk premium per unit of market risk The higher, the better the performance Implies a diversified portfolio
22-12
RVAR or RVOL?
If total (systematic) risk best, use RVAR (RVOL) If portfolios perfectly diversified, rankings based on either RVAR or RVOL are the same Differences in diversification cause ranking differences
22-13
Measuring Diversification
R2 from estimation of Rpt - RFt =ap +bp [RMt - RFt] +ept R2 is the coefficient of determination Excess return form of characteristic line The lower the R2, the greater the diversifiable risk and the less diversified

M-squared Measure
Problem: RVAR and RVOL measures not in percentage terms M-squared is return earned if portfolio's total risk either dampened or leveraged to match the benchmark total risk
Hypothetical riskless borrowing or lending required to make risk adjustment Rank portfolios according to adjusted returns M-squared = RF + [Rp RF] (m/p)
