Additionally, Taxable PLUS and Taxable Ladder PLUS received the following designations for the fourth quarter of 2024:

Taxable PLUS - 6 Stars - Core Fixed Universe
Taxable PLUS - 6 Stars - US Fixed Income Universe
Taxable Ladder PLUS - 6 Stars - Intermediate Core Fixed Universe

"The final quarter of 2024 was defined by both volatility and resilience, success in these markets required relentless effort, rigorous research, and disciplined execution," says PSN Product Manager Nick Williams. "PSN Top Guns recognizes the top managers and teams whose expertise continues to drive the growth of SMAs amid today's complex and rapidly evolving market conditions."

Through a combination PSN's proprietary performance screens, the PSN Top Guns awards products in six proprietary categories in over 75 universes based on continued performance over time.

Belle Haven's Muni PLUS, Taxable Ladder PLUS and Taxable PLUS strategies earned the PSN Top Guns Manager of the Decade award, meaning these strategies had an r-squared of 0.80 or greater relative to the style benchmark for the latest 10-year period. Moreover, the strategies returns were greater than the style benchmark for the latest 10-year period and also standard deviation less than the style benchmark for the latest ten-year period. At this point, the top ten performers for the latest 10-year period become the PSN Top Guns Manager of the Decade.

Belle Haven's Taxable Ladder PLUS and Taxable PLUS strategies also earned the PSN Top Guns 6 Stars award, meaning these strategies had an r-squared of 0.80 or greater relative to the style benchmark for the recent five-year period. Moreover, the strategy's returns exceeded the style benchmark for the three latest three-year rolling periods. Products are then selected which have a standard deviation for the five-year period equal or less than the median standard deviation for the peer group. The top ten information ratios for the latest five-year period then become the 6 Star Top Guns.
