This extensive study seeks to measure the value added by T. Rowe Price’s investing approach by comparing the performance of the firm’s actively managed composites with their primary benchmarks across standardized time period windows, rolled monthly, over the past 20 years.
The study compares the individual performance of 111 actively managed T. Rowe Price composites with their relevant benchmarks. The broad range of composites included in the study is intended to illustrate the performance of T. Rowe Price’s investing approach at asset class and total firm levels.
Composite returns were calculated net of fees, based on the highest breakpoint fee applicable for T. Rowe Price institutional clients.
This broad study examines the performance of 111 actively managed T. Rowe Price composites (69 equity and 42 fixed income) over the 20 years ended December 31, 2024, or since inception for composites without a full 20-year performance history. The study included our actively managed institutional equity and fixed income composites. It excluded any dormant or previously terminated composites.
The study excluded money market and passive composites—those that sought to track the performance of a particular market or asset class benchmark. Also, in instances where a specific investment strategy included multiple composites, we used only the composite with the highest assets under management to avoid double counting. All told, the composites in the study represented 77% of composite assets managed by T. Rowe Price as of December 31, 2024.
For consistency, and to capture as much performance history as possible, composites with even a single period of comparability between the composite and its benchmark were included in the analysis.
The study examines whether T. Rowe Price’s investing approach has added value by comparing the performance of the firm’s actively managed composites with their primary benchmarks.
The dataset comprises 1‑, 3‑, 5‑, and 10‑year rolling returns for the T. Rowe Price composites and their benchmarks, rolled monthly. Because a number of composites had performance histories that were considerably shorter than the full 20‑year period covered by the study, the results are inherently time weighted because the number of eligible rolling periods for each composite in a given time window equals a percentage of the total number of rolling periods for all the composites in its asset class—or, for equity composites, in its equity subclass.
In other words, a composite with a shorter history had a lower weight in the average than a composite with a full performance history.
Returns for the multiyear rolling periods were annualized. Where permitted by the underlying performance data, these rolling analysis periods began on January 1, 2005, and ended on December 31, 2024.
Figure 1 shows how many different rolling periods of returns were produced in each rolling time window (one, three, five, and 10 years), when a T. Rowe Price composite and its benchmark both exhibited a full performance history.
Source: T. Rowe Price.
* For illustrative purposes. The graph depicts the number of rolling periods and their start dates for an actively managed T. Rowe Price composite with a full performance history. This applied to 56 of the 111 composites included in the study. Fewer performance periods were available for other T. Rowe Price composites, depending on their inception dates.
If a T. Rowe Price composite included in the study incepted after January 1, 2005, its performance was tracked across standardized rolling periods from the first full month for which it had a track record.
The one‑year time window contains the most rolling periods for analysis, potentially as many as 229 one‑year periods, rolled monthly. These data points are also proportionally indicative of how many rolling periods were analyzed in the multiyear time windows for each composite. In total, 12,145 rolling periods were analyzed for equity composites and 6,326 for fixed income composites.
Figure 2 breaks out the number of T. Rowe Price composites in each asset class for the 1‑, 3‑, 5‑, or 10‑year rolling time windows. Depending on the T. Rowe Price composite’s inception date, some composites may have lacked the track record to be included in the analysis for some rolling time windows.

All study results were based on total returns, which reflect the reinvestment of dividends and are net of all non-reclaimable withholding taxes on dividends, interest income, and capital gains. Performance was calculated net of fees, based on the highest breakpoint fee for T. Rowe Price institutional clients. In other words, the returns used in the study were based on each composite’s performance, net of fees.
Excess return is the difference between a T. Rowe Price composite’s return and the return on the relevant benchmark over a given analysis period.
Figure 3 highlights the average excess returns for T. Rowe Price composites, aggregated by asset class (equity and fixed income) and by equity subclass (U.S. equity and international equity).
The active success rate is the percentage of rolling periods that a T. Rowe Price composite generated excess returns that were greater than zero, indicating that it outperformed its benchmark. A composite that outperformed its benchmark in more than 50% of all rolling periods in a given time window was deemed to have achieved a positive active success rate for that window.
Figure 4 shows average returns‑based active success rates for T. Rowe Price composites at the asset class and equity sub‑asset class level. The composites included in the study are shown in Figure 5 (U.S. and international equity) and Figure 6 (fixed income). Those figures also show the number of rolling one-year periods in which each T. Rowe Price composite had a performance record.

The results shown in the main body of this study were aggregated at the asset class and equity subclass level. However, a more detailed breakdown of the study results can be found in this Appendix.
Figures A1 (equity composites) and A3 (fixed income composites) list the average annualized excess returns for each T. Rowe Price composite across each applicable rolling time window.
Figures A2 (equity composites) and A4 (fixed income composites) show the returns-based active success rates for each composite across those same time windows.
Colored in grey - Periods with positive active success rates (higher than 50%) or positive average excess returns.

See standardized performance tables for standardized performance information.
* Excess return is the difference between a T. Rowe Price composite’s return and the primary benchmark return over a given analysis period.
