What is Information Ratio (IR)?

Statistics

정보 비율 (IR)

Excess performance relative to a benchmark divided by the volatility of that excess. It shows how consistently the benchmark was outperformed. Because it distinguishes one large outperformance from steady small outperformance, it reveals a repeatability that total return alone does not show.
