TopFund's Take on ICICI Prudential Business Cycle Fund Direct Plan IDCW
ICICI Prudential Business Cycle Fund Direct Plan IDCW holds up reasonably well within the Thematic 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 71/100.
Cost: At 1.01%, the expense ratio is roughly in line with the Thematic category average of 0.99% — 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 -0.94 — 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 16.15% is fairly typical for Thematic funds.
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.
