The original motivation of developing a risk-return framework was to measure the risks inherent in the bank's credit portfolio, as well as the amount of equity capital necessary to limit the exposure of the bank's depositors and other debt-holders to a specified probability of loss.
For performance evaluation purposes, RAPM systems assign capital to business units as part of a process of determining the risk-adjusted rate of return and ultimately, the economic value added of each business unit.
An RAPM model emphasises that risk must be compensated for, while ensuring that the risk is both measured and appropriately considered through the enforced completion of the calculation.

 Otley & Fakiolas 2000   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
This paper is a commentary that summarizes studies that have used ‘reliance on accounting performance measures’ (RAPM) as a central variable.
The paper gives some history about the development of the RAPM construct, groups and critiques past research on the variable, and provides some suggestions for future measurement.
Although they are measuring the basis for evaluation as budget, profit, or non-accounting based, their measure suffers because it is a single item, and because it asks about bonuses, thereby limiting its use to firms that offer bonuses as a central reward motivation mechanism.

 RAROC and Economic Capital
A RAPM is a performance metric that is based on a standard accounting performance metric but with some adjustment to reflect "true" or "economic" risk.
RAPMs have their origins in the accounting notion of return on assets (ROA), which was long used as a bank-wide performance metric:
Widespread use of OTC derivatives and other off-balance-sheet items have largely rendered the accounting notion of assets a meaningless indicator of a bank's risk or the financial resources it has deployed.

Whereas within-condition latencies for the three of the information-processing tasks and recall scores were found to be reliable and consistently correlated with age and RAPM, individual differences in within- condition accuracies and between-condition slopes produced by the three information- processing tasks were found to be unstable over time and unrelated to age and RAPM.
As suggested by Salthouse (1985), a large portion of the age-related differences in fluid intelligence was found to be accounted for by age-related declines in a general latency factor (cognitive speed).
Finally, given that free recall had a substantial independent effect on RAPM when age and latency were held constant, the results called into question the assumption that cognitive speed can account for all individual differences in IQ.

 Re: Value-at-Risk as a RAPM
There are 2 basic RAPM schools of thought: - VaR-based techniques - Sharpe ratio techniques, by which I mean "average PandL / standard deviation of PandL" type measures value-at-risk techniques are, in my opinion, appropriate for this problem and are complementary to Sharpe ratio techniques for this reason: Sharpe ratio techniques are purely backward-looking.
It is not possible to do any forward planning with a Sharpe ratio - more on this in section 3.
This is one big problem that I have with Sharpe ratio techniques on their own: what does a times series of these numbers mean if the mix of risk factors in your PandL is continually changing?

The interviews were designed to capture the managers' perceptions relating to RAPM, and to uncertainty.
Our results highlight an important practical and theoretical distinction between actionable and non-actionable sources of PEU, which is based on a manager's ability to improve the predictability of change, and/or to be able to react to changes in the environment with an additional effort.
