• A high score is the highest level of value that an investment account or fund has reached.

  • The high mark is often used as a demarcation point in determining the reward for the result that the investor must pay.
  • The goal is to protect investors from paying fees for poor performance, as well as paying fees again every time the fund makes a profit.
  • At a high mark, the investor pays a commission that covers only the amount earned by the fund between the entry point and its highest level.
