In April 2024, an Indian retail investor was pondering over his investment portfolio, which consisted mainly of traditional fixed income instruments and cash equivalents. The investor wanted to diversify some of his incremental surplus cash toward equity mutual funds, hoping to achieve higher risk-adjusted returns. Based on his risk appetite level and investment goals, he selected five open-ended small cap mutual funds: HDFC Small Cap Fund, Quant Small Cap Fund, Tata Small Cap Fund, SBI Small Cap Fund, and Nippon India Small Cap Fund. However, before investing in any mutual funds, the investor wanted to quantitatively evaluate their historical risk-adjusted performance. To do so, he used various well-known performance evaluation measures including the Sharpe ratio, Treynor ratio, M-square measure, Jensen’s alpha, Information ratio, and Sortino ratio. The investor wondered how the various mutual funds he had selected would perform. He compiled available data for the previous five years and made some financial calculations. He then evaluated the results of his financial exercise to determine the right investment decision.
