It is a closed user group, meaning that platforms must provide actual sales and asset data in order to participate. They must also abide by a confidentiality agreement. Since platforms also provide granular data on their bestselling funds, a subscription is extended to fund groups provided they sign a confidentiality agreement.

It provides essential reading on latest industry developments, allowing readers to monitor competition and fast-changing industry trends.
