3 Inroducion (/) In he asse managemen indusry, he isk Adjused Performance (hereinafer AP) measures are he more well known insrumens used in order o give advice abou he qualiy of an invesmen (Cucurachi, 999). The more widespread measures assumes he hypohesis of normaliy of reurns and provide a judgmen of he qualiy of he invesmen as a raio beween a reurn and a risk index. Empirical analysis proposed in lieraure abou he real esae invesmen vehicle performance demonsrae ha he reurn disribuion is asymmeric (Huson and Sevenson, 008) and is significanly skewned (Lizieri e al. 007).

4 Inroducion (/) esearch quesions - Does he normaliy hypohesis fi for he Ialian real esae funds? - Is here any difference in he ranking consruced using AP measures ha assume he normaliy of reurns and hose ha do no consider his simplified assumpion? - Is here any relaionship beween leverage or volume and he ranking defined using differen AP measures?

6 Lieraure review (/) The analysis of he performance achieved by lised real esae propery companies and EITS demonsrae a lack of normaliy in he reurn disribuion (Lizieri and Ward, 000) and shows dynamics for reurns achieved ha are no always coheren wih hose achieved by oher financial insrumens (Huson and Sevenson, 008). eal esae invesmen vehicles show frequenly a reurns disribuion wih higher skewness and kurosis respec o oher financial insrumens (Myer and Weeb, 993).

7 Lieraure review (/) The non normaliy of resuls is explained on he basis of he liabiliy srucure ha could defined in order o ensure o he lender a fixed minimum reurn and a premium in some marke scenarios (Ward and French, 997). The performance dynamics of real esae vehicles could be also explained on he basis of he lack of liquidiy ha characerized he markes in which hey are raded (Li e al., 009). There are some evidence for more developed markes (like US) of an increasing number of ransacions and a lowering level of ransacion coss (Jirasakuldech and Knigh, 005) bu hese resuls could be no generalized o he overall world indusry.

Measures consruced on disribuion of losses, on he maximum drawdown and looking also a he asymmery of reurns allow o achieve he highes level of raking persisence over ime. Using some conrolling variables for he characerisics of he real esae invesmen fund, he leverage has a significan impac on he ranking posiion defined using differen AP measures while volume seems o be no relevan
