Thomson Reuters Lipper Fund Awards

Asia Investor Achievement Awards
AsianInvestor ("AI") annual Awards for Achievement recognise fund houses that have demonstrated skill in
institutional fund management, as well as all-round excellence among hedge funds, service providers and
domestic businesses. Nominations are based purely on past performance. AI does however select winners on
more qualitative factors so our awards reflect consistent skill. For the Annual awards, the methodology for
AsianInvestor's Achievement Awards in institutional asset management involves two steps:
- First: AI collects performance data from various consultants that is used to shortlist the top 3-4 candidates in each category. For one-year awards, AI looks at pure returns; for other awards, information ratios. AI picks the top three or four performers on that basis.
- Step two: AI asks the candidates to pitch themselves and provide some areas (such as sources of alpha, strategy, team experience, innovation, testimonials, etc) to consider. After than it is purely an editorial decision, based on the pitches.
Firms that have demonstrated consistent performance in a particular asset class may have an edge and AI also values client testimonials highly.
The Asset ETF Awards
For The Asset Triple A Private Banking, Wealth Management, Investment and ETF Awards, the editors of The
Asset adopt a rigorous approach in selecting the most deserving institutions and products. Point scores for
both quantitative factors and qualitative factors are combined to determine a shortlist for each award. The
Asset editorial team then conducts follow-up interviews and participates in presentations organized by the
investors, investing institutions and product originators to make a final judgment.
R&I Fund Award
The R&I Fund Award is presented to provide reference
information based on the past data R&I believes to be reliable (however, its accuracy and completeness
are not guaranteed by R&I) and is not intended to recommend the purchase, sale or holding of particular
products or guarantee their future performance. The Award is not the Credit Rating Business, but one of the
Other Lines of Business (businesses excluding Credit Rating Business and also excluding the Ancillary
Businesses) as set forth in Article 299, paragraph (1), item (xxviii) of the Cabinet Office Ordinance on
Financial Instruments Business, etc. With respect to such business, relevant laws and regulations require
measures to be implemented so that activities pertaining to such business would not unreasonably affect the
Credit Rating Activities. Intellectual property rights including copyright and all other rights in this
Award are the sole property of R&I, and any unauthorized copying, reproduction and so forth are
prohibited. The Award for the "Investment Trusts/Aggregate" category is based on the average performance of
the relevant funds of a fund manager, and does not indicate the excellent performance of all individual
funds of the manager.
