Offshore Funds Tables
These tables list mutual funds registered for sale in the UK but domiciled in Guernsey, Jersey, Ireland, Isle of Man or Luxembourg.
Funds are ranked by performance within their Lipper Global Classification. Only the top ten performing funds within the 20 largest
sectors by number of funds are included in the table
Lipper Leaders are designed to help investors select funds that suit their particular investment styles and goals. The scale ranges from
5, the highest – a Leader - to a score of 1, the lowest.
Capital Preservation measures a fund’s ability to avoid capital loss compared to other funds in its asset class.
Consistent Return shows how well a fund has demonstrated consistently superior performance compared to its sector peers.
Expense differentiates funds that have lower expenses compared to competing funds
The Lipper Leader Rating System scores are based on relative rather than absolute measures and do not constitute a recommendation
to buy or sell mutual funds. Investors should remember that past performance is no guarantee of future results. Some peer groups and
asset classes are inherently more volatile than others and even Lipper Leader funds in more volatile asset classes or peer groups may
not be appropriate for risk-adverse investors and those with shorter-term goals.
