Sharpe performance measure

    0.04 sec.
Sharpe performance measure
A measure of risk-adjusted portfolio performance developed by William Sharpe. The index is calculated by dividing the risk premium return (average portfolio return less average risk-free return) divided by risk (standard deviation of portfolio returns). The Sharpe measure adjusts portfolio performance for total risk rather than market risk. Compare Treynor performance measure.
