About the Morningstar Awards for Investing Excellence – Category Awards
The Morningstar Awards for Investing Excellence – Category Awards recognize funds that have not only delivered strong risk-adjusted returns in the past but are also deemed capable of serving investors well going forward. As such, the selection uses a combination of several layers: a quantitative score, the Morningstar Medalist Ratings and analyst judgement. For the qualitative aspect, a winning fund must have been in the top half of its peer group in the last calendar year, and in the top half of their peer group median in at least three of the past five calendar years. Funds must also have delivered strong three-and five-year relative returns after adjusting for risk. Morningstar, Inc. received compensation from Artisan Partners for reprint rights.
