Figures we compute
Past returns, volatility, maximum drawdown, the chance of a gain over a holding period and peer rank are computed from published NAVs, against funds in the same AIMC category.
A 0% total expense ratio on a fact sheet usually means the share class had no money invested in its last fiscal year, so we do not count it as the lowest cost and show it as N/A.
Most NAVs shown are the previous business day’s price, because asset managers publish after the close. Every page shows the date of its data.
Limits
We check the data automatically on every run, but it can still be wrong or late. Before investing, read the prospectus and the asset manager’s documents, linked from each fund page.
