FundGrade A+® is used with permission from Fundata Canada Inc., all
rights reserved. The annual FundGrade A+® Awards are presented by
Fundata Canada Inc. to recognize the “best of the best” among
Canadian investment funds. The FundGrade A+® calculation is
supplemental to the monthly FundGrade ratings and is calculated at
the end of each calendar year. The FundGrade rating system evaluates
funds based on their risk-adjusted performance, measured by Sharpe
Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and Information Ratio. The score for each
ratio is calculated individually, covering all time periods from 2
to 10 years. The scores are then weighted equally in calculating a
monthly FundGrade. The top 10% of funds earn an A Grade; the next
20% of funds earn a B Grade; the next 40% of funds earn a C Grade;
the next 20% of funds receive a D Grade; and the lowest 10% of funds
receive an E Grade. To be eligible, a fund must have received a
FundGrade rating every month in the previous year. The FundGrade A+®
uses a GPA-style calculation, where each monthly FundGrade from “A”
to “E” receives a score from 4 to 0, respectively. A fund’s average
score for the year determines its GPA. Any fund with a GPA of 3.5 or
greater is awarded a FundGrade A+® Award. For more information, see
