TopFund's Take on JM Short Duration Fund (Direct) - Growth
JM Short Duration Fund (Direct) - Growth holds up reasonably well within 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 76/100.
Cost: At 0.39%, the expense ratio runs 15% 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 -0.8 — 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 1.1% 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.
