Methodology


Best Multi-Asset Fund awards methodology

Created by Square Mile Consulting and Research, the Best Multi-Asset Fund categories are based upon investment outcomes and so each may contain funds from a number of different Investment Association sectors. Delivering the investment outcome and meeting the fund’s own objectives in the most risk-efficient manner are the keys to being selected for these categories. The categories are then judged by an independent panel of experts from fund ratings and research companies.

All other categories

Adviser and provider categories need to be entered using the online forms. Entries will go through a preliminary round of judging after which the strongest entrants are selected for our shortlists. Shortlists are then assessed in a second round of judging which also consists of two stages.
