How this is computed

Each verdict is computed from this fund's own metrics against its sub-category — the number behind it is shown, not a black-box rating.

Ranked within Income (same plan and option). 39 of the 38 Income funds in this cohort carry the full record the stars need, so they are the ones ranked against.
