| Tiivistelmä: | Many problems arise in applying conventional statistical methods to accounting ratios, often relating to assumptions about the statistical distribution of ratios. This paper presents a non-parametric model of corporate performance which obviates the need for specification of statistical distributions or functional form. Instead it seeks to identify outstanding performance in a number of dimensions, and to measure the performance of less efficient firms in relation to their efficient peers. The strengths and weaknesses of the model are discussed. |
