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. The stars weight the same ground 60/15/10/15 (performance/risk/cost/downside) across every fund in the peer group. Ranked within Index Funds (same plan and option). Based on a 1-year record — this fund is too young for a 3-year CAGR, so its performance is ranked on 1Y against the same peers. 330 of the 381 Index Funds in this cohort carry the full record the stars need, so they are the ones ranked against.
