LOOMIS is another provider that received enough responses for the first time this year to qualify for league tables and written comments in the survey. The firm’s average score for overall offering is a sound 4.33 out of 5.00, which is a nice improvement over last year, and an impressive jump from 2015’s score of 3.50. No service categories stand out as needing attention, as Loomis Sayles’ scores are consistently solid across the board. The firm also garners a top five score from clients for funded status attribution in its debut year of qualification.
