Investment performance

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The investment performance is the total return of an investment (either a given asset or a portfolio of assets) during a given period (one year for example).

It takes into account:

• the direct income for the investor (interests, dividends...)
• the increase or decrease in the asset market value (or the total portolio value).
