Performance Attribution Volume 2: Analysis and Reporting, Second Edition explains the practical aspects of building or interpreting a top-to-bottom performance attribution system applicable to many asset classes. Requiring a familiarity with the principal concepts of portfolio analysis, it features standard methodologies and alternative approaches to the attribution of diverse assets, including derivatives, fixed income, and hedge funds. Based on the authors’ Performance Evaluation and Attribution of Security Portfolios (2012), its concentration on the ethical standards embodied by GIPS includes a summary of provisions for the presentation of risk in a firm’s investments.

Brian Singer, CFA, is the co-CEO of Wealth Horizons Inc., a private wealth firm founded by seasoned investment professionals. With over four decades of global macro investment experience, he has served on multiple for-profit and not-for-profit boards and previously chaired the Board of Governors of the CFA Institute, the Research Foundation of the CFA Institute, and the CFA Institute Curriculum Committee. A published author of books, monographs, and articles, Brian has contributed to leading finance journals and is recognized for helping define the practice of macro investing — particularly in the areas of currency management, performance attribution, and risk management. He is a steadfast advocate for free-market solutions to society’s most complex challenges. He has a lovely wife, Linda, and two wonderful adult children, Margo and Andy. Russ Wermers is the Paul J. Cinquegrana '63 Endowed Chair in Finance and Director of the Center for Financial Policy (CFP) University of Maryland at College Park. His research, published in leading scholarly journals, has developed new approaches to measuring and attributing the performance of mutual funds, pension funds, and private equity funds, which, among other applications, can be used to identify superior active funds.
