The Morningstar RatingTM for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for separate accounts with at least a three-year history. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.
Notes: Morningstar uses gross-of-fee performance (before fees have been taken out) to compare separate accounts. Morningstar does not calculate ratings for categories or time periods that contain fewer than five separate accounts. To ensure that ratings are fairly assigned, Morningstar will calculate ratings for only those firms that report performance for “composites” of similarly managed portfolios according to the guidelines of the CFA Institute’s Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®).
