Methodology

In 2023, over 270 individuals including analysts, economists and strategists, salespeople and traders were invited by the Asset Benchmark Research to nominate the most Astute investors, based on their knowledge of the credits and markets, trading skill and acumen in making investment decisions.

As such the ranking also includes investors who are not included in absolute return or performance assessments. The nominations collected are subject to the rating of the individual casting the vote.

Based on the nominations received, the top ten Astute Investors with the highest weighted score are ranked by geographic location.
