ENHANCED MORNINGSTAR ANALYST RATINGS
FOR FUNDS
Morningstar has revised its Analyst Rating scale to now
include three positive ratings (Gold, Silver and Bronze),
one Neutral and one Negative rating. These ratings
replace the previous scale of Elite, Superior, Standard,
Inferior, and Impaired.
The top three tiers are expressed as medals and are
reserved for funds that Morningstar analysts believe
have sustainable advantages that position them well
versus peers or the relevant benchmark on a riskadjusted
basis over a full market cycle. These medals
are as follows:
�����
To arrive at a rating, Morningstar analysts evaluate
five key pillars which they consider critical to a fund’s
ability to succeed:
� People
� Process
� Parent
� Performance
� Price
