TopFund's Take on HSBC Short Duration Fund - Direct Growth

HSBC Short Duration Fund - Direct Growth ranks among the stronger performers in the Short Term Fund category, backed by a 5-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 81/100.

Cost: At 0.32%, the expense ratio is roughly in line with the Short Term Fund category average of 0.34% — 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 -0.76 — 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 1.18% is on the lower side for a Short Term 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 Income/Debt Oriented fund.
