TOP RISK-ADJUSTED PERFORMERS
 
Top performers to December 2014 on a risk-adjusted basis in the Mulit-Asset and Real Estate sectors plus the largest other ASISA sectors based on market capitalisation. The PlexCrown fund rating methodology, which incorporates risk-adjusted returns and consistency of performance, is used to rate and rank funds for these awards. Passive funds are not rated and funds in non-rated sub-categories and sectors (e.g. money market funds) are not taken into consideration. To qualify for a rating a fund must have a return history of at least five years in a sub-category/sector with at least five qualifying funds.
 
Methodology: The PlexCrown system combines risk-adjusted returns based on performance statistics from ProfileData with standard risk measures, consistency measures, and measures of downside risk and managerial skill. Performance over five-year and three-year periods is taken into account.
