Riassunto

Performance benchmarking has become common among fund managers; the 14 chapters here show how the same kinds of tools can be used to assess the contribution of senior managers and executives in financial institutions. The chapters cover four main themes: performance measurement, money management under constraints, leveraged investment, and executive compensation. The contributors are traders, investment professionals, bankers, economists, and actuaries; the guide is intended for executives, consultants, risk managers, portfolio managers, and derivatives traders.

Su questo libro

Dalla quarta di copertina

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.

Edited by Emmanuel Acar, an actuary with banking experience, Added Value in Financial Institutions is a groundbreaking guide, unveiling the true worth of added value.
