Standard Deviation:
Standard deviation numbers measure the variability or volatility of a fund's returns over
a specific time period (often 3 years).
- Low standard deviation = Stable, predictable returns → Suitable for conservative investors seeking stability.
- High standard deviation = High volatility, more risk → Be cautious, suitable for risk-tolerant investors who can handle fluctuations.
Beta:
Beta measures a fund's volatility about the market or a benchmark. A lower beta means the
fund's performance is less sensitive to market movements, making it more predictable compared to the
market.
- Low beta = Less sensitive to market changes → Great for investors with less market exposure.
- High beta = More sensitive to market changes → Better for aggressive investors who seek higher returns but can handle market risks.
Sharpe Ratio:
The Sharpe Ratio measures how much return a fund has made compared to the risk it carries.
A higher Sharpe ratio indicates better returns relative to the risk taken, meaning the fund delivers
more efficiently.
- A higher Sharpe ratio indicates better risk-adjusted returns → Look for funds with higher ratios for better return efficiency.
- Use it to compare different funds' efficiency in generating returns relative to the risk taken.
Lock-In Period:
India's "lock-in period" in mutual funds encourages long-term investment, particularly in tax-saving schemes preventing redemption or selling of units.
Lock-in times for various investment types
- Most ELSS mutual fund holders hold for 3 years.
- Tax savings FDs lock in for 5 years.
- The lock-in period for 8% Government of India bond investment is 6 years.
- ULIPs must be locked in for 5 years.
- The average hedge fund holding period is 30-90 days.
- The average PPF investor holds onto their money for 15 years.
Residual Maturity:
Residual maturity is the remaining time until a security reaches its maturity date. It is an important factor for investors to consider when evaluating the risk associated with an investment.
There are two different types of residual maturity.
- Short-term residual maturity: This occurs when a security has less than a year left on its maturity.
- Long-term residual maturity: This occurs when a security has more than a year left on its remaining maturity.
