Risk adjusted performance measurement for a portfolio involves calculating the contributions to total economic capital for sub-portfolios or single assets. We show that there is only one definition for the contributions which is suitable for performance measurement, namely as derivative of the underlying risk measure with respect to the weight of the considered sub-portfolio or asset. We review the formulas for the derivatives for some popular risk measures including quantile-based value at risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall in a rather general context
