Fund rating definitions
 
  Standard & Poor's Ratings meaning

  Standard & Poor's Fund Management Ratings are based on a frequently-updated evaluation of quantitative (historic performance, volatility, and portfolio construction) and qualitative (management, corporate status and investment process) factors that contribute to long-term performance. Only funds with a track record of at least two years can apply for a rating and only 20% of the funds' analysed achieve one of the three following Fund Management Ratings.
     
  AAA The fund demonstrates the highest standards of quality in its sector based on its investment process and management's consistency of performance as compared to funds with similar objectives.
  AA The fund demonstrates very high standards of quality in its sector based on its investment process and management's consistency of performance as compared to funds with similar objectives.
  A The fund demonstrates high standards of quality in its sector based on its investment process and management's consistency of performance as compared to funds with similar objectives.
     
  The bond fund volatility rating is S&P current opinion of a fund’s sensitivity to changing market conditions. Volatility ratings evaluate the fund’s sensitivity to interest rate movement, credit risk, investment diversification or concentration, liquidity, leverage and other factors. For V1-V4 categories, risk is considered relative to a portfolio composed of government securities and denominated in the base currency of the fund.
     
  V1 Bond funds that possess low sensitivity to changing market conditions. These funds possess an aggregate level of risk that is less than or equal to that of a portfolio comprised of government securities maturing within one to three years, and denominated in the base currency of the fund. These funds possess an aggregate level of risk that is less than or equal to that of a portfolio comprised of the highest quality fixed-income instruments with an average maturity of 12 months or less. Within this category, certain funds are designated with a plus sign (+), indicating extremely low sensitivity to changing market conditions.
  V2 Bond funds that possess low to moderate sensitivity to changing market conditions. These funds possess an aggregate level of risk that is less than or equal to that of a portfolio comprising government securities maturing within three to seven years, and denominated in the base currency of the fund.
  V3 Bond funds that possess moderate sensitivity to changing market conditions. These funds possess an aggregate level of risk that is less than or equal to that of a portfolio comprising government securities maturing within seven to 10 years, and denominated in the base currency of the fund.
  V4 Bond funds that possess moderate to high sensitivity to changing market conditions. These funds possess an aggregate level of risk that is less than or equal to that of a portfolio comprising government securities maturing beyond 10 years and denominated in the base currency of the fund.
  V5 Bond funds that possess high sensitivity to changing market conditions. These funds may be exposed to a variety of significant risks including high concentration risks, high leverage, and investments in complex structured and/or liquid securities.
  V6 Bond funds that possess the highest sensitivity to changing market conditions. These funds include those with highly speculative investment strategies with multiple forms of significant risks, with little or no diversification benefits.
  Morningstar Star Rankings Definition

  The Morningstar Europe Star Rating provides a ranking of the returns of comparable funds, taking into account fund costs and risk. Ratings are sector specific which means that they are not suitable when comparing funds in different sectors. The key ingredients of the Morningstar Star Rating are:

Morningstar Categories: These bring together funds that have genuinely similar investment policies, as reflected by their portfolio holdings. The relevant parameters are a fund’s investments in particular equity markets in bonds markets or in a combination of both.

Costs inputs: All annual expenses incurred by a fund are already deducted from the raw performance figures. Additionally, the Morningstar Rating systematically takes initial charges into account.

A risk-adjusted return calculation: For all rated funds, 36 months of performance data is combined with a sophisticated measure of risk to give an overall rating.
