ABOUT THE BTOP AWARD METHODOLOGY
The BarclayHedge approach to selecting the 2013 Pinnacle Award nominees was based on a group of
quantitative manager performance metrics most commonly used by investors. A mixture of interviews and surveys were conducted with professional asset allocators to determine (1) which criteria are most useful to them in their selection process for managers and (2) how those criteria ranked in order of importance.
Over 100 allocators participated in this process, and in the final phase, the top five performance metrics (based on their aggregate ranking score) were selected. Each metric was given a unique "weight" determined by it’s ranking and was incorporated to compute the final score of qualified CTA programs in each award category. The three programs with the best scores in each category were selected as the nominees, and the program with the top score will be named the winner.
