Each quarter, Zephyr releases its “PSN Top Guns” ranking, an important reference for plan sponsors, investors, and asset managers, showcasing the best performing separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies. While Curran Wealth Management received awards in 9 different categories for the awards quarter ending 6/30/2023, we want to highlight 2 awards in particular.

Large Core Equity Universe

The Large Core Equity Universe is made up of stocks of large-cap companies where neither growth nor value characteristics predominate. Stocks in the top 70% of the capitalization of the U.S. equity market are defined as large cap.

Core Growth Equity - 4 Quarters (1 Year) Ending 6/30/2023 – Curran’s Core Growth Equity portfolio ranked 5th in a universe of 244 products from 145 firms with a rate of return (RoR) of 26.7%*. The S&P 500 Index (the index to which this category is benchmarked and measured against) returned 19.6% for the same period.  

Small Midcap Universe

The Small Midcap Universe is made up of companies with market capitalizations between $350 million and $10 billion. These strategies seek to outperform the Russell 2500 Index by taking advantage of the diverse opportunities provided by companies of this size.

SMID Cap Equity - 4 Quarters (1 Year) Ending 6/30/2023 – Curran’s SMID Cap Equity portfolio ranked 5th in a universe of 203 products from 141 firms with a rate of return of 34.7%*. The Russell 2500 Index (the index to which this category is benchmarked and measured against) returned 13.6% for the same period.  

*The RoR figures for Curran’s portfolios are calculated net of fees.
