What Makes DealEdge Fund Benchmarking Different
What Makes DealEdge Fund Benchmarking Different
True Peer Benchmarking with the Fund Benchmark Chart
Traditional benchmarking can be misleading. One or two breakout deals can artificially inflate a fund's overall performance. Unlike one-size-fits-all comparisons, our Fund Benchmark chart empowers you to:
- Construct precise peer groups tailored to your investment/sector strategy
- Understand your fund distribution
Deal Level Transparency with the Alpha Bridge Chart
The Alpha Bridge Chart shows if your fund's performance comes from picking good sectors or just riding the market. It:
- Breaks down performance by sub-sectors, not just overall fund
- Reveals if your returns stem from sector positioning or deal execution
This detailed analysis proves your investment expertise, not just market exposure.
