Understanding the concept of alpha is crucial in the world of finance. It serves as a measure of an asset manager's performance in generating profits, relative to a benchmark index. In essence, it represents the excess returns earned above the expected market returns, and can be calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). For example, if a fund's CAPM is 7% and the actual returns are 10%, it implies that the asset manager yielded 3% higher returns than anticipated, resulting in an alpha value of 3.
