Natixis Global Assets Management US funds ranked #1 by Barron's
Natixis Global Asset Management is ranked #1 in the Barron’s/Lipper Top Mutual Fund Families rankings. The award is based on an evaluation of 2016 performance for the Natixis Funds, Loomis Sayles Funds, and Oakmark Funds.
While Natixis Global Asset Management does not focus on short-term results, we believe our top ranking this year is precisely because of our long-term approach and commitment to building more durable portfolios.
Barron's/Lipper 2016 one-year fund family ranking is based on 61 qualifying U.S. fund companies. Ranking reflects fund total returns, excluding loads, 12b-1 fees, and expenses; fund family must have at least three funds in Lipper’s general equity category, one world equity, one mixed equity, two taxable bonds, and one tax-exempt bond fund. Natixis was not ranked for the 5- and 10-year periods. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Each fund’s return is measured against its Lipper category, includes dividends and capital gains, if any, and excludes 12b-1 fees and fund loads. Percentile ranking (100 the highest and 1 the lowest) is then weighted by asset size relative to the fund family’s other assets in its general classification. Finally, the score is multiplied by the weighting of its general classification, as determined by the entire Lipper universe of funds. The category weightings for the one-year results in 2016 were general equity, 39.6%; mixed asset, 17.4%; world equity, 17.2%; taxable bond, 22.3%; tax-exempt bond, 3.5%.
