The Barclay Fund of Funds Index is a measure of the average return of all FoFs in the Barclay database. The index is simply the arithmetic average of the net returns of all the FoFs that have reported that month.
The Barclay Fund of Funds Index is recalculated and updated real-time on this page as soon as the monthly returns for the underlying funds are recorded. Only funds that provide us with net returns are included in the index calculation. The number of funds that are currently included in the calculations for the most recent months can be found in the footnotes above. Please note that the calculation for the number of funds is time-stamped and that the number of funds will continue to increase until all funds categorized within the sector have reported monthly returns.
