Beschreibung: This paper reports an investigation into methods of portfolio performance measurement. The work is motivated first by equivocal empirical evidence reported by several authors about the correlation of performance measures with the Sharpe ratio. Secondly it is motivated by recent work which specifies that performance measures will be monotone functions of the Sharpe ratio if portfolio returns follow the same location-scale distribution. The paper demonstrates that the class of location-scale distributions is broader than previously reported. It presents conditions under which monotonicity with respect to the Sharpe ratio will fail. The paper shows that for large sample sizes the correlation between pairs of performance measures that are functions of the Sharpe ratio is unity. The correct null hypothesis for tests of correlation is therefore ρ=1. Two multivariate tests of this null hypothesis are presented. The new tests are used to carry out of a comprehensive study of performance measurement for a set over ninety UK investment trusts
