Performance attribution is well standardised within fund management, due to modern portfolio theory. However, the rewards made to senior executives are a much more subjective topic. Bonuses and salaries are negotiated on a person-to-person basis and vary from one institution to the next. The same tools used in the fund industry to measure performance may also be used to assess added-value generated by senior managers and executives within financial institutions. Added Value in Financial Institutions demonstrates how this can be done and will allow general managers to start using modern portfolio theory to reward their staff. It provides a common framework to benchmarking as well as theoretical tools to design and refine benchmarks whilst maintaining an understanding of the specifics of different sectors. Including contributions from some of the leading names in the field, the book offers a novel approach to measuring performance and reward within hedge fund companies. It is prime reading for senior executives, consultants, risk managers, portfolio managers and derivatives traders alike.
