Morningstar Direct SM Scorecard

Transcription

1 Within the Performance Reporting functionality, use the Scorecard to assign weighting schemes to data points and create custom criteria based on those quantitative and qualitative factors to calculate an overall score. Investments can be scored based on either standardized values or custom grades. The Standardized Scoring method converts raw data points to percentile ranks and applies user-selected weights to those percentile ranks. These weighted percentile ranks are then aggregated to create the score for the investment. The Custom Scoring method converts defined rules placed upon data points and assigns numeric grades based on those rules.
