STANDARD & POOR'S / BUSINESSWEEK EXCELLENCE IN FUND MANAGEMENT AWARDS
The Standard & Poor's / Business Week Excellence in Fund Management Awards recognize fund managers and management teams across different investment styles, who have proven histories of strong fund management anchored by track records of consistently sound returns. In launching this awards program, Standard & Poor's and BusinessWeek are providing investors with a longer-term perspective on mutual funds, incorporating important qualitative factors such as the experience of the management team, alongside each fund's actual quantitative performance.
