About Funds Benchmark

The fund research platform built for financial advisers. Comprehensive data, AI-powered analysis, and the speed of a modern web application.

What we do

Funds Benchmark gives financial advisers and wealth managers a faster, smarter way to research and compare investment funds. We combine comprehensive fund data from FE fundinfo with AI-powered analysis to surface the insights that matter — so you can spend less time on screens and more time with clients.

We provide detailed, up-to-date information on over 4,000 carefully selected fund strategies — spanning more than 39,000 individual share classes — across the UK, Ireland, Luxembourg, Australia, and the UAE/GCC region.

Our fund universe covers the full spectrum: from the world's largest equity, fixed income, and multi-asset funds through to specialist emerging market, ESG, thematic, and alternative strategies. We've deliberately balanced well-known names that your clients will recognise with specialist and boutique managers that can add real value to a portfolio.

How it works

Funds Benchmark is a web-based platform. There is nothing to install. Search for a fund, compare it against alternatives, and use our AI tools to deepen your analysis — all from your browser.

Our data pipeline pulls directly from FE fundinfo, ensuring that the performance figures, AuM data, and fund attributes you see are sourced from one of the most trusted names in fund data. AI-generated content is produced by our proprietary models and is always clearly labelled.

Features and tools

Fund detail pages

Every fund has a dedicated page showing name, ISIN, Citi code, domicile, currency, AuM, performance across multiple time periods, and all available share classes — with manager context where applicable.

Fund comparison

Select up to four funds and compare them side-by-side on the metrics that matter most. Performance, AuM, structure, asset class, and risk laid out clearly — no more toggling between factsheets.

Fund screener

Filter the full universe by asset class, domicile, currency, fund type (ETF, passive, active), manager, and more. From 4,000+ funds to a shortlist in seconds.

Performance charts

Interactive charts let you visualise fund returns over custom time periods and overlay multiple funds. Clear enough to use in client presentations.

AI-powered forecasting

Forward-looking base, bull, and bear scenarios with a confidence level, plain-English investment thesis, key drivers, and principal risk factors. Designed to augment — not replace — your own judgement.

AI editorial analysis

Daily editorial content highlighting notable fund performance, emerging trends, and sector shifts across the platform. A research briefing that scans 4,000 funds so you don't have to.

Our fund selection

We didn't just list every fund in every database. We worked with FE fundinfo to curate a universe of 4,000 fund strategies that balances breadth and depth.

Around 70% are large, well-established funds from globally recognised managers — the names your clients will search for and expect to find. The remaining 30% are carefully chosen specialist, thematic, and emerging strategies that represent the kind of funds worth discovering — from AI and robotics ETFs to water sustainability funds to frontier market debt.

We excluded money market funds, fund-of-funds, pension wrappers, with-profits products, private equity vehicles, and other structures that aren't relevant to mainstream fund research. If a fund is on our platform, it's there because a financial adviser might realistically consider it.

Why we built this

The fund research landscape is fragmented. The data is scattered across provider websites, platform tools that haven't changed in years, and PDF factsheets that take too long to read. We built Funds Benchmark because we believe advisers deserve a single, well-designed place to do their fund research — with the analytical depth of institutional tools and the speed of a modern web application.

We are a UK-based team and Funds Benchmark is an independent platform. We are not affiliated with any fund manager, platform provider, or distribution network. The funds on our platform are selected on merit, not because anyone paid to be listed.
