TopFund's Take on DSP Banking & Financial Services Fund - Regular - IDCW
DSP Banking & Financial Services Fund - Regular - IDCW holds up reasonably well within the Sectoral category, backed by a 4-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 78/100.
Cost: At 0.79%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 20% below the Sectoral category average of 0.99% (based on 469 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 -0.16 — over the past year, returns haven't kept pace with the volatility involved, even before accounting for the risk-free rate. Separately, with 20.53% annualised volatility, this is among the more turbulent funds in the Sectoral space — expect sharp swings in both directions.
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.
