Citywire offers a range of resources to help fund investors make the right investment decisions and this page is a one-stop to help you get to the information you need quickly.

We provide tools to enable investors to compare the performance of funds, which can be accessed through the links on the right of this 'Top Performers' page. Every fund has a factsheet.

However, Citywire offers much more than simple fund information.

First and foremost our website is a portal where investors can access our unique database of fund manager performance. It is the only place you can separate the performance record of individual fund managers from the funds they currently run to see their career performance as a whole.

Our league tables, available through the links on the right of this page show which individuals are delivering the goods in their respective sectors while the 'All Rated Manager' link shows investors which fund managers are currently rated by Citywire for their risk-adjusted performance. 'Top Performers' also offers regular updates of changes to Citywire's list of rated managers.

By clicking on highlighted fund manager names investors can explore Citywire's factsheets which provide comprehensive performance histories aswell as profiles of leading fund managers.

You will also find a new fund and fund manager selection tool. This enables investors to filter down the universe of funds and fund managers to find those which meet their own specific criteria. This tool offers a unique filter which allows investors to search for managers who have maintained Citywire ratings - which are awarded monthly - over time, providing a never seen before insight into the capacity of these individuals to deliver risk-adjusted returns consistently.

Through this 'Top Performers' page investors can also keep up to date with Citywire's weekly analysis of performance within individual sectors as well as explore all these resources.
