PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Fund evaluation across critical parameters for better decision making. Study period is 3 years.

Consistency
i
It represents the consistency of a fund in beating its benchmark.
Downside Risk
i
Measured by Maximum Drawdown which shows the maximum loss from a peak to a nadir over a specified time period
Risk Adjusted Return
i
Risk adjusted return represents the return generated after factoring the risk taken to achieve it.
Volatility
i
Volatility represents the standard deviation of fund returns that is, how much the fund returns have deviated from the average.
Upside Capture Ratio
i
Fund performance relative to the index when the market is up. An upside capture ratio of >100 indicates better fund performance.
Downside Capture Ratio
i
Fund performance relative to the index when the market is down. A downside capture ratio of <100 indicates better fund performance.

HISTORICAL RISK MEASURES

Statistical measures to evaluate mutual fund risk. All ratios are calculated for a three-year time duration.

Alpha: Excess return of the fund over benchmark
i
Any Alpha above zero is considered good. However, for comparison, a fund with a higher Alpha is considered better. Alpha is normally used in conjunction with Beta. If the Beta is high, it implies that the fund manager took a high risk to generate Alpha.

i

This Fund

VS

0.94

Category Avg
Sortino Ratio: Return per unit of bad risk
i
A variation of Sharpe ratio, Sortino considers only the downside risk. Unlike Sharpe ratio which considers both good risk and bad risk, Sortino factors only the bad risk. A high Sortino ratio indicates better return for each unit of downside risk.

This Fund

VS

1.62

Category Avg
R-Squared: How well the fund tracks benchmark
i
R-Squared measures the correlation of fund returns and its benchmark returns. It varies between 0 and 1. The metric, Beta makes no sense if R-Squared is equal to zero. Thus, both Beta and R-Squared should be used in conjunction. A fund with a high R-Squared and low Beta is considered a less risky fund.

Category Avg
Sharpe Ratio: Risk adjusted return of the fund
i

Standard Devation: Volatility of the fund
i
