TopFund's Take on HSBC Short Duration Fund - Direct Quarterly IDCW

HSBC Short Duration Fund - Direct Quarterly IDCW lags behind most of its peers in the Short Term Fund category, currently carrying a 2-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 45/100.

Cost: At 0.41%, the expense ratio runs 21% above the Short Term Fund category average of 0.34%. 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 negative Sharpe ratio of -2.04 — 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 3.57% 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.
