Touchstone Investments was founded in 1994 as part of the Western & Southern Financial Group and offers a range of actively managed mutual funds across asset classes. The funds are managed by external institutional asset managers who are selected through a formal evaluation process that assesses organizational stability, team experience, investment strategy, operational infrastructure, and performance records. These mutual funds have concentrated portfolios and high active shares, which means they deviate significantly from benchmark indices. All this makes it a reliable investment option.
