We have upgraded the Morningstar Analyst Rating™ for the Legal & General UK Index fund to Silver. The fund previously held a rating of Bronze. The fund tracks the broad and diversified FTSE All-Share index. Given its strong tracking ability and reduced fees, it represents one of the most efficient vehicles through which investors can access UK equities. Compared with its surviving peers in the Morningstar UK Large-Cap Blend Equity Category, which includes both active and passive funds, this tracker has delivered consistent above-average returns over the long term. On a 10-year risk-adjusted return basis, the fund has ranked in the top quartile. For these reasons we have a strong conviction that over a full market cycle this tracker will comfortably beat the average fund in the Morningstar UK Large-Cap Blend Equity Category on a risk-adjusted basis.
