Source: Barron’s, “Barron’s Best Fund Families of 2024,” Feb. 27, 2025. Barron’s rankings are based on asset-weighted returns in funds in five categories: General Equity; World Equity; Mixed Asset; Taxable Bond; and Tax-Exempt Bond (each a “Barron’s ranking category”). Rankings also take into account an individual fund’s performance within its Lipper peer universe. Lipper calculated each fund’s net total return for the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, minus the effects of 12b-1 fees and sales charges. Each fund in the survey was given a percentile ranking, with 100 the highest and 1 the lowest in its category. This result is then weighted by asset size relative to the fund family’s other assets in its general classification. The score is then multiplied by the weighting of its general classification, as determined by the Lipper universe of funds. Calculations are done for each fund in the study; then the numbers are added for each category and overall. The process is repeated for the five- and 10-year rankings. Barron’s Fund Family Rankings are awarded annually.
To qualify for the ranking, firms must offer at least three active mutual funds or active ETFs in Lipper’s general U.S. Stock category; plus one in World Equity and one Mixed Asset, such as a balanced or allocation fund. They also need to offer at least two taxable bond funds and one national tax-exempt bond fund. All funds must have a track record of at least one year. The ranking also includes “smart beta” ETFs, which are run passively but built on active investment strategies. The final list reflects each firm’s active-management ability.
