Returns Attribution

Returns attribution is a way to analyze how different investment decisions or activities contribute to the overall profit or loss of an investment portfolio. It breaks down the total returns into the specific sources that generated them, such as individual assets, sectors, or strategies. This helps investors and managers understand which parts of their portfolio are performing well or poorly, guiding future decision-making to optimize returns. Essentially, it provides a clear picture of what is driving investment success or failure.
