Excess Return
Excess return is the return on the fund minus the return on the benchmark (the FTSE 350 Index) over one year. The higher the excess return the more the fund has outperformed the index. However, this measure does not take into account the amount of risk taken.

Tracking Error
Tracking Error is a measure of how closely a portfolio follows the index. It measures the standard deviation of the difference between the portfolio and index returns over one year. A low tracking error means a portfolio is closely following its benchmark. Typically a tracker fund will have a tracking error of about 14.0 and an active fund will have a tracking error of 18.0 or more.

Information Ratio
Information Ratio is the excess return dividend by the tracking error. It is a measure of risk adjusted performance which gives the average performance per unit of volatility against the benchmark. The higher the ratio, the higher the return of the fund given the amount of risk taken. Generally, very few funds have a positive information ratio.
