Touchstone Investments has been ranked as one of Barron’s Best Fund Families of 2023. Out of 49 companies, Touchstone was ranked No. 5, moving up 37 spots from No. 42 in 2022. 

Barron's Best Fund Families is an annual ranking that evaluates mutual fund families based on their performance and consistency over the past year. The annual Barron's ranking assesses the asset-weighted performance of firms’ actively managed funds as compared to their peers using data from Refinitiv Lipper. Of the 819 asset managers in Lippers’ global database, which includes over 335,000 share classes in mutual funds, closed-end funds, ETFs and others, just 49 fund families met Barron’s performance criteria. Of those, Touchstone ranked fifth for one-year returns (ending Dec. 31, 2023), ninth for five-year returns and 11th for 10-year returns. 

This solid investment performance is a strong indicator of the kind of results Touchstone’s Distinctively Active asset management approach can deliver to its investors. The ranking considers various factors, including the returns of the fund portfolios, risk-adjusted returns, and other performance metrics. The evaluation aims to provide investors with insights into which fund families have demonstrated strong performance and management skills over the specified period.
