The Fi360 Fiduciary Score^® is a robust tool to help identify and monitor plan investment options as part of the initial and ongoing due-diligence process. It’s an objective means of evaluating and comparing investments.

Hartford Funds has contracted with fi360 herein to provide resources that are designed to help financial professionals operating in the retirement space with plan evaluation and support, education and practice management. Note that fi360 is not an affiliate or subsidiary of Hartford Funds.

The fi360 Fiduciary Score® is a peer percentile ranking of an investment against a set of quantitative due diligence criteria selected to reflect prudent fiduciary management. For each investment with at least a three-year history, fi360 calculates the fi360 Fiduciary Score based on the following due diligence criteria: regulatory oversight, minimum track record, stability of the organization, assets in the investment, composition consistency with asset class, style consistency, expense ratio/fees relative to peers, risk-adjusted performance relative to peers, and performance relative to peers. Investments are evaluated on a monthly basis. If an investment does not meet an individual due diligence criterion, points are assigned. Investments that satisfy all of the due diligence criteria receive a fi360 Fiduciary Score of 0. Every other investment is given a Score of 1-100 based on their point total, and representing their percentile ranking within their peer group. The fi 360 Fiduciary Score Average is a one-, three-, five-, or ten-year rolling average of an investment’s fi360 Fiduciary Score. The Average is also calculated on a monthly basis. The fi360 Fiduciary Score represents a suggested course of action and is not intended, nor should it be used, as the sole source of information for reaching an investment decision.
