Active Share
Active share measures the degree to which a fund differs from its respective benchmark — the higher the active share, the lower the fund’s correlation to its benchmark (100 being completely different from the benchmark and zero being a replica of the benchmark).
Active share is calculated for the Burgundy Focus Canadian Equity Fund vs. S&P/TSX 60 Index. Source: FactSet.
Average Annual Turnover
10-year average annual turnover is calculated using full calendar year portfolio turnover figures only. Partial inception year turnover figures are also excluded from the calculation, where applicable. Newer strategies are calculated since inception.
