Factors that determine the IR

1. Information coefficient (IC): signal quality; mgr skill; actual vs. expected active returns;


2x(% correct) - 1


2. Transfer coefficient (TC): actual vs. optimal active weights; correlation bw forecasted active returns and actuals weights adjusted for risk; TC = 1 for unconstrained portfolio;


3. Breadth (BR): number of bets per year

Grinold Rule

SRActive^2 = SRBenchmark^2 + (TC x IRActive)^2

Sharpe Ratio

Unaffected by cash or leverage


= (RP - RF) / sP


= SRActive^2 = SRBenchmark^2 + (TC x IRActive)^2

Optimal level of risk

s* = TC x (IR/SRB) x sB

Closet index funds

Claims to be actively managed but actually closely tracks the underlying benchmark


Have similar SR as benchmark and very low IR and little active risk
