TopFund's Take on NJ Balanced Advantage Fund - Direct Plan - Growth Option
NJ Balanced Advantage Fund - Direct Plan - Growth Option sits in the middle of the pack for Dynamic Asset Allocation funds, 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 55/100.
Cost: At 1.13%, the expense ratio runs 18% above the Dynamic Asset Allocation category average of 0.96%. 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 -0.64 — 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 7.74% is on the lower side for a Dynamic Asset Allocation fund, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.
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.
