Three ATB Funds are FundGrade A+ award winners for 2022

Compass Portfolios receive recognition for consistent and outstanding risk-adjusted performance.

A row of golden FundGrade A+ awards lined up

The FundGrade A+® Award is given annually to investment funds and their managers who have shown consistent, outstanding, risk-adjusted performance throughout the year. The FundGrade A+® award rating system identifies funds that have been consistent FundGrade A-Grade performers over the past year. It’s the only objective rating system based on risk-adjusted returns available in the market. 

Achieving a FundGrade A+® Rating denotes inclusion in an exclusive group, because only about 6% of eligible investment fund products available in Canada have received a FundGrade A+® rating.

For 2022, the three ATB Funds that won FundGrade A+ awards were:

  1. Compass Conservative Portfolio
  2. Compass Conservative Balanced Portfolio
  3. Compass Balanced Portfolio

All three funds are multi-time FundGrade A+ award winners, with the Compass Conservative and Compass Conservative Balanced Portfolios winning 11 years in a row in the Canadian Fixed Income Balanced category.

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. 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. To be eligible, a fund must have received a FundGrade rating every month in the previous year.

Although Fundata makes every effort to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data used in the FundGrade A+ calculation, the accuracy is not guaranteed by Fundata
