+Asymmetric Returns are defined as the greater degree to which an investor participates in gains when the market rises relative to the extent the investor participates in losses when the market falls. Can be measured by comparing an investment’s up-capture to down-capture. For example, an investment with a up-capture relative to the S&P of 68% and a down-cap of the relative to the S&P of 34% would have an asymmetry ratio of 2 and be considered highly asymmetrical.
*Active share: Active share is defined as the percentage of the portfolio that differs from its passive benchmark. For a long-only portfolio, the active share measure is between 0% and 100%. An active share measure of 0% indicates the portfolio is identical to its benchmark while a 100% active share measure indicates the portfolio has no overlap with its benchmark.
