<p>two other approaches are considered in this paper: the first is stochastic dominance, which is based on a comparison of the complete empirical distributions of returns and the second is based on the traditional Treynor (1965) measure but uses a modified beta as proposed by Leland (1999). This modified beta stems from the intertemporal asset pricing model of Rubinstein (1976) which assumes that investors have power utility functions (i.e., they consider moments of higher order, not only mean and variance)</p><p><br/>摘自Isakov, D. and B.
