By leveraging privateMetrics® and infraMetrics® data, this approach allows you to assess the performance of each fund and manager fairly against a representative benchmark and determine which manager is over/under-performing the market, or simply to monitor the alpha-generating capability of a fund on an ongoing basis. . . .
