Measuring & Evaluating Mutual Fund Performance
• Need for measuring fund performance– To make right investment decisions
• Depends upon– Type of fund– Investment objective– Current financial market conditions

Different Performance MeasuresDifferent Performance Measures
• Change in NAVChange in NAV– Change in NAV between the two dates in absolute
and percentage terms.
– Absolute terms-• NAV at the end-NAV at the beginning
– Percentage terms• (Absolute change
/ NAV at the beginning) * 100

• Easily understood & applies to any type of fund
• Does not take into account interim dividend declared by the Scheme
• Suitable for evaluating Growth funds & accumulation plans of debt & equity funds.

Different Performance MeasuresDifferent Performance Measures
• 2) Total Return– Takes into account the dividends distributed
by the fund– [(Distribution+Change in NAV) / NAV at the
beginning] * 100– Suitable for all categories of funds, more
accurate than the first method– Ignores the possibility of reinvestment of
dividend

Different Performance MeasuresDifferent Performance Measures
• 3) Return on Investment (R.O.I)– Computes the total return with reinvestment of
dividends in the fund at ex-dividend date.– [(Units held + div./ex-d NAV)*end NAV] - begin
NAV /begin NAV*100– Accepted by MF tracking agencies (Credence
and Value research)– Suitable for accumulation plans, monthly /
quarterly income schemes, debt funds distributing interim dividend.

Useful Concepts
• Compare the same time periods since returns over different time periods vary due to different market conditions.
• Annualised returns applicable only to periods greater than 1 year.
• Returns to be computed since the inception of the scheme (Rs.10 as the base amount).

Useful Concepts
• Expense Ratio– Total expenses / Average Net assets of the
fund– Excludes brokerage commissions– Average of 3 to 5 years to be used to judge
the performance of the fund.– Evaluated in the light of fund size and portfolio
composition.

Useful Concepts
• Income Ratio– Net investment income/Net Assets– Useful for evaluating debt funds
• Portfolio Turnover Rate– Amount of buying / selling in the market– Indicates higher transaction costs– Useful in analysis of equity & balanced funds
![Page 9: Measuring & Evaluating Mutual Fund Performance](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/546809afb4af9fc0698b4ad7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Useful Concepts
• Transaction costs– Includes brokerage commission,stamp
duty,registrars’ fees,custodian fees,dealers’ spreads.
• Cash Holdings
• Borrowing by MF

Performance Measurement (cont’d)
• Sharpe Ratio measure fund performance in terms of total risk
• Sharpe index = rt - r* / sdt
• rt = average return on portfolio t
• r* = risk less rate of return
• sdt= standard deviation of the returns of the portfolio t

Treynor Ratio measure the fund performance in term of market risk :
Treynor index = rn - r* / beta n
rn = average return on portfolio nr* = risk less rate of returnbeta n = beta coefficient of portfolio

Alpha as measure the performance of the fund manager:
•It is the difference between a security’s expected return and its equilibrium expected return
•positive alpha indicates undervalued securities
•negative alpha indicate over valued securities

Price / Earning multiple is also another risk measure:
Fund P/E ratio = Weighted average of P/E ratios of all the stocks held in the portfolios
P/E = Market price per share / Earnings per share

Evaluating Fund Performance
• Benchmarks available• 1) Relative to the Market
– Index funds• Tracking Error
– Active Equity funds– Debt funds– Money Market funds
![Page 15: Measuring & Evaluating Mutual Fund Performance](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082603/546809afb4af9fc0698b4ad7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Evaluating Fund Performance
• 2) Relative to other similar MFs– Investment objective & Risk Profile– Portfolio Composition– Credit quality & Average Maturity– Fund size– Expense ratios– Compare average annualised returns over the
same periods only,after tax returns.

Evaluating Fund Performance
• 3) Relative to other investment options– Convert cumulative returns to average
annualised returns
• Evaluate the Fund manager / AMC– Long term perspective– Avoid excessive trading– Consistent performance
