Qualitative
The Qualitative assessment criteria
account for 50% of the overall
assessment of each fund and
include the team and the investment
process.
The Qualitative rating is generally
determined as a result of the
interviews and analysis conducted
with each fund manager during
the annual sector review. Unless
there is a significant change
to the investment team or process
during the year, the qualitative
opinion continues to apply until
the next formal review.
Organisation, although not formally
scored, is an overriding factor
generally relating to a significant
event such as a takeover, team
departure or ASIC review.
Quantitative
Quantitative ratings are based
on 3-year wholesale performance
data. They are not modified
by subjective overlay.
Four factors are used to arrive
at the quantitative score, each
based on 3-year data. Each factor
is normalised to ensure a spread
of results across the research
universe.
