StyleADVISOR gives users the ability to compare managers to a peer group on more than 25 statistics. In addition, a peer group can be displayed on many of StyleADVISOR’s graphs.
For more information about comparing a manager to a group of peers, please see our article Peer Group Analysis.
Universe Graph and Table
Zephyr's unique Manager vs. Universe graph plots the manager's rank (where the manager falls if the managers are put in order highest to lowest) on one of more than 25 statistics in a universe of similar style managers.
We believe that the rank universe graph below is clearly superior to the standard floating bar graph, which shows where a manager falls in a universe for only a few discreet time periods (One year, three year, five year, etc). Here we can see where a manager ranks for every single month or quarter.

This graph can be altered to show the actual return (or other statistic) on the vertical axis instead of rank.

StyleADVISOR also allows you to create a typical floating bar chart for your peer group analysis.
Showing the Universe on Other Graphs
Most StyleADVISOR graphs give users the option to display all of the managers in the selected universe. For these graphs, the universe managers are displayed as small black dots.
