TopFund's Take on HDFC ARBITRAGE FUND - Monthly IDCW - Direct Plan
HDFC ARBITRAGE FUND - Monthly IDCW - Direct Plan sits in the middle of the pack for Arbitrage funds, currently carrying a 3-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 56/100.
Cost: At 1.53%, the expense ratio is roughly in line with the Arbitrage category average of 1.53% — cost isn't a standout factor either way for this fund.
Risk-adjusted performance: Over the trailing 1-year period, the fund shows a negative Sharpe ratio of -2.8 — 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 1.93% is on the lower side for a Arbitrage 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.
