问题如下:
The discussion turns to benchmark selection. DFC’s previous fixed-income manager used a custom benchmark with the following characteristics:
Which
of the custom benchmark’s characteristics violates the requirements for an
appropriate benchmark portfolio?
选项:
A.
Characteristics 1
B.
Characteristics 2
C.
Characteristics 3
解释:
Correct Answer: B
B is correct. The use of an index as a widely accepted benchmark requires clear, transparent rules for security inclusion and weighting, investability, daily valuation, availability of past returns, and turnover. Because the custom benchmark is valued weekly rather than daily, this characteristic would be inconsistent with an appropriate benchmark.
在equity里面passive investment 也有选择benchmark,一般指要求transparent, rule based, investable.
是只有FI pure indexing / enhanced index 时benchmark的需要valued on a daily basis 吗?还是说所有benchmark 都需要daily basis 只是因为equity 一般流动性好所以不强调?
