Strategy Receives Top Recognition for the First Quarter of
2017
ClearArc Capital announced today it has been recognized with Top
Guns status by Informa Investment Solutions' PSN manager database.
Three of the firm’s strategies were among the top 10 performers
within one or more peer groups reporting to the PSN database.
Utilizing a proprietary blend of Informa Investment Solutions’ top
priority performance screens, PSN Top Guns ranks products in six
proprietary star categories in over 50 universes.
Mitch Stapley, CFA, Chief Investment Officer for ClearArc
Capital states, “It is an honor to be recognized by Informa,
especially across three of our strategies which we feel is
indicative of the experience, depth, and chemistry of our
investment team. Our Strategic Income Plus and Core Plus Fixed
Income strategies continue to garner attention with our focus on
providing high income, lessening correlation to traditional fixed
income, and our risk management capabilities. In addition, our
liquidity strategies are very customized based on client investment
flexibility and cash flow needs. We are proud that our risk
management approach helped lead us to the top ranking in the PSN
Short Maturity universe for the period. We continue to maintain an
eye on risk given the uncertainty in today’s markets and look
forward to helping our clients meet their investment goals.”
ClearArc Capital’s PSN Top Guns products for the quarter
include:
- Strategic Income Plus: 1-Star,
Core Plus Universe
- Core Plus Fixed Income: 5-Star, Core
Plus Universe
- Core Plus Fixed Income: 6-Star, Core
Plus Universe
- 1-3 Year Government/Corporate Liquidity
Asset Management: 5-Star, Short Maturity Universe
- 1-3 Year Government/Corporate Liquidity
Asset Management: 6-Star, Short Maturity Universe
For the first quarter, the Core Plus Universe consisted of 104
firms and 136 products. The Short Maturity Universe consisted of
153 firms and 254 products.
According to Informa Investment Solutions' PSN manager database
ranking system, products in the 5 and 6-Star category must have an
R-Squared of 0.80 or greater relative to the style benchmark for
the recent five-year period. Moreover, products must have returns
greater than the style benchmark for the three latest three-year
rolling periods. After that they select only the products which
standard deviation for the five-year period is equal or less than
the median standard deviation for the peer group. The top ten
returns for the latest three-year period then become the 5-Star Top
Guns, while the top ten information ratios for the latest five-year
period then become the 6-Star Top Guns. Products earn the 1-Star
rating as top ten performers within their respective universes,
based on quarterly returns.
"We congratulate ClearArc Capital on their distinction as a PSN
Top Gun. This highly anticipated quarterly ranking recognizes elite
performers on the leading investment manager database in North
America and is widely used by institutional asset managers and
investors across our platform,” said Leno Toich, Managing Director
of Informa Investment Solutions. “PSN Top Guns ranks products in
six proprietary star categories in over 50 universes.”
