ICICI Prudential Global Advantage Fund (FOF) - Direct Plan - Growth Option

ICICI Prudential Global Advantage Fund (FOF) - Direct Plan - Growth Option holds up reasonably well within the Dynamic Asset Allocation category, backed by a 4-star rating. It has delivered steady, if unspectacular, returns over a full market cycle. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 79/100.

Cost: At 1.06%, the expense ratio is roughly in line with the Dynamic Asset Allocation category average of 0.98% — cost isn't a standout factor either way for this fund.

Risk-adjusted performance: Over the trailing 1-year period, the fund shows a strong Sharpe ratio of 1.4 — the fund has generated solid returns relative to the volatility it exposed investors to. Separately, annualised volatility of 14.23% is fairly typical for actively managed equity funds.

Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Hybrid fund. The High risk rating means near-term volatility should be expected — this isn't a fund to check daily.
