SICAV Fund Outperformance of Morningstar Category Median as of 31 December 2018

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

 ¹As of 31 January 2019. Source & Copyright: Citywire. Group Ratings by Citywire for rolling risk adjusted performance, across all management teams in a sector, over the period 31/12/2011-31/12/2018. Citywire take into account the complete stable of managers a group currently has in a sector. All the individuals’ risk adjusted performance over a seven year period are factored in, as are moves people have made and changes in responsibility. The ratings are calculated over seven years and based on an average of their managers’ three year rolling risk-adjusted returns. Where managers have moved, their track records will follow them. A final score is generated for each group, on a sector by sector basis, with current stable of managers taken into account. Those delivering excellent levels of outperformance are placed in the ratings pool. Ratings are awarded to any group that is at least one third ahead of the average score. Within this top group, 10% receive a platinum rating, the next 20% a gold rating, the next 30% a silver rating, and the remaining 40% a bronze rating. Not all strategies included in the group ratings are available in all jurisdictions.

They are designed to distinguish fund managers who have consistently performed well over the longer term. Only the top 10% of managers will receive this accolade. Measured from 01/01/2000 the rating considers all fund managers running IA unit trusts and OEICs, Investment Trusts and offshore collectives for sale in the UK, with at least one fund being an IA unit trust or OEIC.
