While these allocation-level beta measures are typically not an element in the routine performance reports of U.S. pension and endowment funds, they would be an informative addition. There are powerful arguments for routine incorporation of beta measures in asset allocation studies as a separate component of risk specification.}, issn = {0095-4918}, URL = {https://jpm.pm-research.com/content/30/3/26}, eprint = {https://jpm.pm-research.com/content/30/3/26.full.pdf}, journal = {The Journal of Portfolio Management} }
