Welcome 

to the latest edition of the Multi-Asset Fund Report

For the last few years, we have published an annual study of the multi-asset fund universe. The result of our latest study is as heart-wrenching as previous years; the overwhelming majority of multi-asset fund managers don’t add any value through their asset allocation and fund selection. In fact, they detract value.

Featured Topics

Methodology

Our research was based on FE Analytics’ Risk-Targeted Multi-Asset Solutions (RTMAS) and includes other prominent multi-asset fund families not included in the RTMAS universe.

Multi-Asset Scoring

The Multi-Asset Ratings are designed to demonstrate whether a fund family achieves adequate returns for clients given its cost and the risk borne by the investor.

Benchmarking Funds

This year, we are focusing on the usage of the No-Brainer portfolio as our main benchmarking tool.

Fund Costs

We’ve found once again that fees within the multi-asset space remain high, eating into net returns that would otherwise directly benefit clients.

Ranking Criteria

We have adapted our ranking criteria this year to reflect a number of factors that are key not only to high quality returns, but also to the psychological process.
