Dear All,

 

After having a lots of discussion, i have come across a shortcut route to chose a better mutual fund scheme. One need to compare three parameter as mentioned below.

  1. Sharpe Ratio:- Higher the ratio the better is the fund return.
  2. Alpha:- Higher the alpha the better the fund return.
  3. Standard Deviation:- Lower the SD the better the fund.

There are others factor also which needs to consider but the above three parameter will give a broad understanding.

I would like to check whether my understanding is correct or require any modifications.

Regards,

 

Amit
