Voya International High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (IFTIX) Sharpe Ratio: 1.76

Mutual Fund · Currency in USD · Last updated Jun 23, 2026

The Portfolio invests primarily in equity securities included in the MSCI EAFE Value Index ("index"). Under normal market conditions, the Portfolio invests at least 65% of its total assets in equity securities of issuers in a number of different countries other than the United States. The sub-adviser ("Sub-Adviser") seeks to maximize total return to the extent consistent with maintaining lower volatility than the index.

IFTIX's Sharpe Ratio of 1.76 indicates that for each unit of volatility, it generates 1.76 units of excess return above the risk-free rate. The ratio is calculated using historical daily returns over the past 12 months (as of Jun 23, 2026).

Sharpe uses total volatility (standard deviation) which includes both upside and downside price movements, making it useful for comparing risk-adjusted returns across different assets. For how to read this number and when it can mislead, see Sharpe Ratio Explained.
