| Introducing
the HedgeFund.net-PerTrac Universes |
|
The HedgeFund.net-PerTrac Universes provide a three-dimensional view of the indices. Detailed percentile rankings are calculated every day for each of 35 different style categories. The results are presented in easy-to-use tables and graphs. Armed with this expanded level of detail, it is now possible for investors to precisely measure a fund’s performance relative to the entire spectrum of his peer group.
A limitation of using simple averages is that they present solely the rate of return calculations. Once again, this tells only part of the story. With the HedgeFund.net-PerTrac Universes, you are also able to evaluate funds using a wide variety of comparative risk statistics including drawdown, Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and more.
Another unique feature of the HedgeFund.net-PerTrac Universes is the Monthly Flash Estimate. It is no longer necessary to wait for all managers to report before you can get updated performance numbers for a particular index. Day by day, as the managers' results are collected, PerTrac Online displays the results and constantly re-calculates the universes’ statistics. This allows you to preview the most recent performance information as it occurs. |
