Our 401(k) Plan Fund Analysis

Overall Rating:

Benchmarks:  Funds are benchmarked against its respective peer group as determined by the Morningstar Category.  The Morningstar® Category identifies funds based on their actual investment styles as measured by the underlying portfolio holdings over the trailing 36-month period.  Additionally, Index Benchmarks are reviewed.

Return Composite:   The Return Composite measures the fund’s performance relative to its peer group on a net-of-fee basis.  It is calculated by taking the equally weighted average of the 3, 5, and 10 year return percentiles.

Sharpe Composite:  The Sharpe Composite measures the fund’s risk-adjusted performance relative to its peer group.  It is calculated by taking the equally weighted average of the 3 and 4 year Sharpe percentiles.

Overall Composite:  The average of the Return Composite and the Sharpe Composite determines the Overall Composite where an Overall Composite above the 66.67 percentile is considered above the benchmark.
