TopFund's Take on Baroda BNP Paribas Best-in-Class Strategy Fund - Direct - Growth Option
Baroda BNP Paribas Best-in-Class Strategy Fund - Direct - Growth Option sits in the middle of the pack for Thematic funds. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 57/100.
Cost: At 1.17%, the expense ratio runs 18% above the Thematic category average of 0.99%. That gap is worth weighing against the fund's actual performance versus cheaper peers before committing to a long SIP.
Risk-adjusted performance: Over the trailing 1-year period, the fund shows a modest Sharpe ratio of 0.03 — returns have only marginally compensated for the risk taken. Separately, annualised volatility of 10.07% is on the lower side for a Thematic fund, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Equity fund. Given the Very High risk rating, this fund is not suited to short-term goals or investors who may need to exit within 2-3 years.
