Validus Growth Investors has been awarded a PSN Top Guns distinction by Informa Financial Intelligence’s PSN manager database, North America’s longest running database of investment managers. Achieving the Top Guns distinction means that the Validus strategies are among the top 10 performers within one or more peer groups reporting to Informa. The Validus Global Growth strategy finished with the #1 return for the three-month period and the #5 return for the one-year period. The Validus International Growth strategy finished with the #3 return for the three-month period.

“It is certainly nice to have our strategies honored with a Top Gun rating, especially during times of such market volatility,” said Mark Scalzo, Validus Growth Investors Chief Investment Officer. “We attribute this success to Validus’ proprietary, bottom-up, process which seeks to identify mispriced secular growers that are less dependent on macroeconomic conditions. The results further affirm our mission to achieve the best risk-adjusted outcomes for our clients, regardless of the market environment.”

PSN Top Guns ranks products in six proprietary categories in more than 50 universes and is a resource for institutional asset managers and investors in their decision-making process. Top Gun firms are awarded a rating ranging from one to six stars, with the number of stars representing continued performance over time.

Validus Growth Investors was honored with three total ratings: a 1-Star and 2-Star Top Gun rating for its Global Growth strategy and a 1-Star Top Gun rating for its International Growth strategy.

In the Global Equity universe, Validus Growth Investors’ Global Growth strategy was awarded a 1-Star Top Gun rating, for a top ten return in the first quarter of 2020 along with a 2-Star Top Gun rating, for a top ten return for the one-year period.

In the International Equity universe, Validus Growth Investors’ International Growth strategy was awarded a 1-Star Top Gun rating, for a top ten return in the first quarter of 2020
