Jensen developed a well-known portfolio performance evaluation measure. Subsequently, Jensen formulated a return-generating model to measure portfolio performance. Lee proposed a generalized specification of the model. This paper investigates the implications of the generalized return-generating model developed by Jensen and Lee.

Keywords: Jensen portfolio performance measure, return-generating model
