Taking a closer look at the Zeno Universe: Asset Manager Trade Process Universe League Tables FOURTH QUARTER 2013 An asset manager’s trade process is a function of both the Total Trading Costs incurred to build/unwind portfolio positions, and the amount of trading the manager engages in (turnover). Total Trading Costs x Turnover defines the impact a manager’s trade process will have on their overall investment performance. The tables below show Peer Group rankings for: Total Trading Costs (calculated on an implementation shortfall basis), Commissions, and Turnover. The rankings cover the four‐quarter average as of September 30, 2013. A glossary of terms is provided on page 2.

The difference between the more efficient vs. more expensive managers can often exceed 100 bp in trading costs. Efficient Total Costs show those asset managers with the lowest Total Trading Costs within a specific Peer Group Universe. Commissions (the explicit fees paid to brokers to execute trades) are typically the smallest, but most controllable part of a manager’s total execution costs – “The tip of the iceberg.” Efficient Commissions show those asset managers with the lowest average commission rates within a specific Peer Group Universe. High Turnover (annual trade volume of Buys and Sells divided by AUM), in and of itself is neither good, nor bad. However, the execution costs of managers with high turnover strategies have greater impact on investment returns. Accordingly, it is critical that high turnover strategies have efficient trading processes. Low Turnover (annual trade volume of Buys and Sells divided by AUM), in and of itself is neither good, nor bad. However, the execution costs of managers with low turnover strategies have a limited impact on investment returns. It is therefore less critical that low turnover strategies have efficient trading processes. Zeno Consulting Group, LLC (Zeno) is not an asset manager or broker.
