Lipper Leader Rating Methodology

The Lipper Leader rating system uses investor-centered criteria, which delivers clear, straightforward descriptions of a fund’s success in meeting certain goals such as:

  • Preserving capital
  • Building wealth through consistent, strong returns.

The investor-centered criteria measures the fund performance and suitability.

 

Four Metrics of Lipper Rating System

The Lipper Leader rating system consists of four metrics that provide clear, straightforward descriptions of a fund’s success in meeting certain goals for constructing individualized portfolios.

  • Total Return
  • Consistent Return
  • Preservation
  • Expense

The four metrics determine if the investors are investing in funds that fit their investment goals.

 

Ratings are assigned for each metric:
Rating Ranking
5 & named Lipper Leaders Top 20% of Funds
4 Upper 20%
3 Middle 20%
2 Lower 20%
2 Lowest 20%

 

Lipper Leaders provide context and perspective for making informed investment decisions but do not predict future performance.

Funds are ranked against their Lipper peer group classifications each month for

  • three-year periods
  • five-year periods
  • ten-year periods
  • overall period.

These ratings are based on an equal-weighted average of percentile ranks of the four Lipper Leader metrics.
