TopFund's Take on BARODA BNP PARIBAS ARBITRAGE FUND -DIRECT PLAN - ADHOC IDCW OPTION
BARODA BNP PARIBAS ARBITRAGE FUND -DIRECT PLAN - ADHOC IDCW OPTION lags behind most of its peers in the Arbitrage Fund category, currently carrying a 2-star rating. Returns have been soft relative to what the category has offered — worth checking if this is a temporary phase or a longer pattern. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 45/100.
Cost: At 0.06%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 86% below the Arbitrage Fund category average of 0.43% (based on 45 comparable funds). Lower costs compound in your favour over long holding periods.
Risk-adjusted performance: Over the trailing 1-year period, the fund shows a negative Sharpe ratio of -1.11 — over the past year, returns haven't kept pace with the volatility involved, even before accounting for the risk-free rate. Separately, annualised volatility of 6.66% is on the lower side for a Arbitrage Fund fund, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Hybrid fund.
