Summary/Abstract: The Post Modern Portfolio Theory is conceptually related to “downside” risk-adjusted return measures. The Sortino Ratio and the more recently developed Omega statistic are the most used measures in portfolio analysis for the asymmetric returns. We show how the Omega index and Omega function are applied to measure the performances of Romanian capital market assets in the downside risk- return environment.
