BRINSON PERFORMANCE ATTRIBUTION

Uncover the true drivers of your excess returns with precision

 

In a competitive investment landscape, asset managers must not only generate performance—they must explain where it comes from. The Brinson attribution methodology, introduced by Brinson, Hood & Beebower and redefined by Brinson & Fachler, remains the global standard to decompose excess return into allocation and selection effects.

By identifying how sector weights, security choices, and market exposure contribute to performance, Brison attribution provides a powerful framework for transparency, accountability, and strategic insight. However, traditional tools often lack the flexibility to reflect today’s complex portfolios—multi-asset structures, derivatives, cash positions, or client-specific benchmarks. 
 

With AMINDIS, you gain full control over your attribution process, ensuring your performance story is both accurate and aligned with your investment strategy.
