Performance Evaluation

Performance evaluation is a two-step process of appraising a fund manager’s results. First, we look to see if the manager outperformed the chosen benchmark [i.e. The investment objective of the fund was to return 2% more than the FTSE 250 - has this been done?]. Second, we investigate the methods employed to realise this return [i.e. Did they follow the original investment plan?].
