The specialist team of Bank Austria Private Banking searches for the most interesting funds on the market for you.
An expert opinion is always a good thing with investments. Build your investment decision on the assessment of our specialists in fund research, which is based on our own fund rating selection process.
- Bank Austria Private Banking works with eleven fund partners checked by us.
- Investment funds are selected from their investment fund products by our specialist team and evaluated. This is carried out according to a multi-stage process using differentiated quality criteria.
- The assessment of the funds is carried out according to their respective risk-reward profile.
With our fund rating you can see immediately how successful the investment fund is in the respective comparison group. The comparison group covers the funds with comparable investments available as a whole on the Austrian market.
As of April 2019 there were around 9,900 investment funds approved in Austria. Of these, around 93 fund products have been selected as “best in class” and checked by our specialist team.
Rating criteria
The rating is calculated using earnings and risk figures over various time periods. The focus is on funds that have an above-average risk-reward profile in the medium term (three to five years). Those funds identified as “best in class” are subject to continuous quality control by the UniCredit team that specialises in fund selection.
Investment funds with a history of less than three years and funds for which there is no relevant comparison group are not included in the fund rating.

The current information does not constitute investment advice or an investment recommendation. In particular, it is not an offer or an invitation to make an investment. It serves solely as preliminary information and cannot replace a consultation based on the individual circumstances and knowledge of the investor.
Every capital investment is associated with risk. The value and return of an investment can suddenly and considerably increase or fall and cannot be guaranteed. Currency fluctuations can also influence the development of the investment. There is the possibility that the investor does not receive the total invested sum back, among others, if the capital investment only exists for a short time. Despite professional advice, losses may therefore occur, including total loss, especially in the case of a short-term investment horizon. The longer the investment horizon, the less significant short-term fluctuations are. Your Private Banking adviser will be pleased to assist you in determining the right investment strategy for you.
