TopFund's Take on DSP Arbitrage Fund - Direct - Growth
DSP Arbitrage Fund - Direct - Growth ranks among the stronger performers in the Others category, backed by a 5-star rating. It has delivered steady, if unspectacular, returns over a full market cycle. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 84/100.
Cost: At 0.43%, the expense ratio runs 378% above the Others category average of 0.09%. 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 0.09 — returns have only marginally compensated for the risk taken. Separately, annualised volatility of 1.2% is on the lower side for a Others fund, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Debt fund.
