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 کاملWhat's the Risk? A simple approach for estimating adjusted risk measures from nonlinear models including logistic regression.
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate a general method (called regression risk analysis) to estimate adjusted risk measures from logistic and other nonlinear multiple regression models. We show how to estimate standard errors for these estimates. These measures could supplant various approximations (e.g., adjusted odds ratio [AOR]) that may diverge, especially when outcomes are common. STUDY DESI...
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 کاملMonitoring surgical performance using risk-adjusted cumulative sum charts.
The cumulative sum (CUSUM) procedure is a graphical method that is widely used for quality monitoring in industrial settings. More recently it has been used to monitor surgical outcomes whereby it 'signals' if sufficient evidence has accumulated that there has been a change in the surgical failure rate. A limitation of the standard CUSUM procedure in this context is that since it is simply base...
متن کاملUsing Key Performance Indicators and Risk Measures in Continuous Monitoring
The paper describes a continuous monitoring methodology in an environment with multiple cues indicative of fraud and errors. A case study describes an application by a restaurant franchisor on the monthly sales numbers reported by franchisees. The system scores each restaurant based on variables judged to be possible indicators of fraud or errors in the monthly sales reports. The variables are ...
