The 3-Year Sortino Ratio measures the risk-adjusted return of an investment asset or portfolio in the last three year, focusing specifically on downside risk rather than total risk. A stock / portfolio's 3-Year Sortino Ratio can be calculated by dividing the difference between the three-year average monthly returns of the investment and the risk-free rate, by the standard deviation of the downside risks over the past three year.

A downside risk is a potential loss from the asset or investment. The Downside risk here is measured by the downside deviation, which is the standard deviation of negative returns.
