Sharpe Ratio (Annualised)

By Martin | December 18, 2007

The Sharpe Ratio measures a fund’s return in excess of the risk free rate for a given period and divides this by the standard deviation of those returns. The Sharpe Ratio is a measure of how effectively a fundutilises risk. This means that the higher a fund’s Sharpe Ratio the better the fund’s historical risk-adjusted performance.
