GLOBEfund.com is pleased to announce that as of Tuesday, October 9th, 2001, it will adopt the new IFSC (Investment Funds Standards Committee) standards for mutual fund classification in Canada. The Investment Funds Standards Committee has completed a full review of all fund categories. As a result of that review there will be a number of changes, which we believe will enhance the monthly fund tables and rankings
Under the new standards, there will be 35 asset categories, an increase from the former 33 asset categories. The individual funds will be assigned to the appropriate category. The criteria for allocation into a specific fund category is as follows. Firstly, a fund's objective and style, as presented in the prospectus, is looked at to determine the appropriate asset category. Then the funds actual portfolio holdings over a period of time are examined to determine its placement within a specific category.
The primary purpose of the new asset classifications is to provide investors with a consistent set of mutual fund categories. The proliferation of mutual fund listings and analysis services has created some confusion in the absence of industry-standardized fund categories. While the committee recognizes that no fund category scheme is suited for all purposes, establishing a standard is nonetheless considered beneficial for the mutual fund investor.
These changes will appear on GLOBEfund wherever funds are grouped by Asset Class, for example, in the Fund Filter, Fund Selector and the Group Average comparison on the Fund Report. To find out to which new asset class a fund belongs, click the fund name when viewing a Fund Report. A Fund Profile will be shown specifying the new asset class.
For more information on the fund category changes please visit the IFSC site.
Overview: The Investment Funds Standards Committee (IFSC) was formed in January 1998 by Canada's major mutual fund database and research firms with a self-imposed mandate to standardize the classifications of Canadian-domiciled mutual funds.
