Mutual Fund · Currency in USD · Last updated Jun 3, 2026

The fund invests, under normal conditions, in at least three different countries and at least 40% of its total assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers organized or having their principal place of business outside the U.S. or doing a substantial amount (more than 50%) of business outside the U.S. Investments in ETFs based on non-U.S. market indices are considered investments outside the U.S. for purposes of the 40% requirement.

RMBTX's Sharpe Ratio of 1.81 indicates that for each unit of volatility, it generates 1.81 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 3, 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.
