INTRODUCTION
A mutual fund is just the connecting bridge or a financial intermediary that allows a
group of investors to pool their money together with a predetermined investment objective.
The mutual fund will have a fund manager who is responsible for investing the gathered
money into specific securities (stocks or bonds). When you invest in a mutual fund, you are
buying units or portions of the mutual fund and thus on investing becomes a shareholder or
unit holder of the fund.
Mutual funds are considered as one of the best available investments as
compare to others they are very cost efficient and also easy to invest in, thus by pooling
money together in a mutual fund, investors can purchase stocks or bonds with much lower
trading costs than if they tried to do it on their own. But the biggest advantage to mutual
funds is diversification, by minimizing risk & maximizing returns

CONCEPT OF MUTUAL FUNDS
Like most developed and developing countries the mutual fund culture has been
catching on in India. There are various reasons for this. Mutual funds make it easy and less
costly for investors to satisfy their need for capital growth, income and/or income
preservation. And in addition to this a mutual fund brings the benefits of diversification and
money management to the individual investor, providing an opportunity for financial success
that was once available only to a select few.
A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common
financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such
as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and
the capital appreciations realized are shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of
units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most suitable investment for the common
man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, -professionally managed basket of
securities at a relatively low cost. The flow chart below describes broadly the working of a
mutual fund:
Mutual Fund Operation Flow Chart
18
BENEFITS OF MUTUAL FUNDSInvesting in mutual has various benefits which makes it an ideal investment avenue.
Following are some of the primary benefits.
Professional investment managementOne of the primary benefits of mutual funds is that an investor has access to professional
management. A good investment manager is certainly worth the fees you will pay. Good
mutual fund managers with an excellent research team can do a better job of monitoring the
companies they have chosen to invest in than you can, unless you have time to spend on
researching the companies you select for your portfolio. That is because Mutual funds hire
full-time, high-level investment professionals. Funds can afford to do so as they manage large
pools of money. The managers have real-time access to crucial market information and are
able to execute trades on the largest and most cost-effective scale. When you buy a mutual
fund, the primary asset you are buying is the manager, who will be controlling which assets
are chosen to meet the funds' stated investment objectives.
DiversificationA crucial element in investing is asset allocation. It plays a very big part in the success of any
portfolio. However, small investors do not have enough money to properly allocate their
assets. By pooling your funds with others, you can quickly benefit from greater
diversification. Mutual funds invest in a broad range of securities. This limits investment risk
by reducing the effect of a possible decline in the value of any one security. Mutual fund unit-
holders can benefit from diversification techniques usually available only to investors
wealthy enough to buy significant positions in a wide variety of securities.
19
Low CostA mutual fund let's you participate in a diversified portfolio for as little as Rs.5, 000, and
sometimes less. And with a no-load fund, you pay little or no sales charges to own them.
Convenience and FlexibilityInvesting in mutual funds has its own convenience. While you own just one security rather
than many, you still enjoy the benefits of a diversified portfolio and a wide range of services.
Fund managers decide what securities to trade collect the interest payments and see that your
dividends on portfolio securities are received and your rights exercised. It also uses the
services of a high quality custodian and registrar. Another big advantage is that you can move
your funds easily from one fund to another within a mutual fund family. This allows you to
easily rebalance your portfolio to respond to significant fund management or economic
changes.
LiquidityIn open-ended schemes, you can get your money back promptly at net asset value related
prices from the mutual fund itself.
TransparencyRegulations for mutual funds have made the industry very transparent. You can track the
investments that have been made on you behalf and the specific investments made by the
mutual fund scheme to see where your money is going. In addition to this, you get regular
information on the value of your investment.
VarietyThere is no shortage of variety when investing in mutual funds. You can find a mutual fund
that matches just about any investing strategy you select. There are funds that focus on blue-
chip stocks, technology stocks, bonds or a mix of stocks and bonds. The greatest challenge
can be sorting through the variety and picking the best for you.
20
TYPES OF MUTUAL FUNDSGetting a handle on what's under the hood helps you become a better investor and put
together a more successful portfolio. To do this one must know the different types of funds
that cater to investor needs, whatever the age, financial position, risk tolerance and return
expectations. The mutual fund schemes can be classified according to both their investment
objective (like income, growth, tax saving) as well as the number of units (if these are
unlimited then the fund is an open-ended one while if there are limited units then the fund is
close-ended).
Open-Ended SchemesOpen-ended schemes do not have a fixed maturity period. Investors can buy or sell units at
NAV-related prices from and to the mutual fund on any business day. These schemes have
unlimited capitalization, open-ended schemes do not have a fixed maturity, there is no cap on
the amount you can buy from the fund and the unit capital can keep growing. These funds are
not generally listed on any exchange.
Open-ended schemes are preferred for their liquidity. Such funds can issue and redeem units
any time during the life of a scheme. Hence, unit capital of open-ended funds can fluctuate on
a daily basis. The advantages of open-ended funds over close-ended are as follows:
Close-Ended SchemesClose-ended schemes have fixed maturity periods. Investors can buy into these funds during
the period when these funds are open in the initial issue. After that such schemes can not
issue new units except in case of bonus or rights issue. However, after the initial issue, you
can buy or sell units of the scheme on the stock exchanges where they are listed. The market
price of the units could vary from the NAV of the scheme due to demand and supply factors,
investors’ expectations and other market factors
Classification According To Investment Objectives
21
Mutual funds can be further classified based on their specific investment objective such as
growth of capital, safety of principal, current income or tax-exempt income.
In general mutual funds fall into three general categories:
1] Equity Funds are those that invest in shares or equity of companies.
2] Fixed-Income Funds invest in government or corporate securities that offer fixed rates of
return are
3] While funds that invest in a combination of both stocks and bonds are called Balanced
Funds.
Growth Funds Growth funds primarily look for growth of capital with secondary emphasis on dividend.
Such funds invest in shares with a potential for growth and capital appreciation. They invest
in well-established companies where the company itself and the industry in which it operates
are thought to have good long-term growth potential, and hence growth funds provide low
current income. Growth funds generally incur higher risks than income funds in an effort to
secure more pronounced growth.
Growth and Income Funds Growth and income funds seek long-term growth of capital as well as current income. The
investment strategies used to reach these goals vary among funds. Some invest in a dual
portfolio consisting of growth stocks and income stocks, or a combination of growth stocks,
stocks paying high dividends, preferred stocks, convertible securities or fixed-income
securities such as corporate bonds and money market instruments. Others may invest in
growth stocks and earn current income by selling covered call options on their portfolio
stocks.
Fixed-Income Funds Fixed income funds primarily look to provide current income consistent with the preservation
of capital. These funds invest in corporate bonds or government-backed mortgage securities
that have a fixed rate of return. Within the fixed-income category, funds vary greatly in their
stability of principal and in their dividend yields. High-yield funds, which seek to maximize
yield by investing in lower-rated bonds of longer maturities, entail less stability of principal
than fixed-income funds that invest in higher-rated but lower-yielding securities.
22
Balanced fundsThe Balanced fund aims to provide both growth and income. These funds invest in both
shares and fixed income securities in the proportion indicated in their offer documents. Ideal
for investors who are looking for a combination of income and moderate growth.
Money Market Funds/Liquid Funds For the cautious investor, these funds provide a very high stability of principal while seeking
a moderate to high current income. They invest in highly liquid, virtually risk-free, short-term
debt securities of agencies of the Indian Government, banks and corporations and Treasury
Bills. Because of their short-term investments, money market mutual funds are able to keep a
virtually constant unit price; only the yield fluctuates.
Specialty/Sector FundsThese funds invest in securities of a specific industry or sector of the economy such as health
care, technology, leisure, utilities or precious metals. The funds enable investors to diversify
holdings among many companies within an industry, a more conservative approach than
investing directly in one particular company.
RISK Vs. REWARDHaving understood the basics of mutual funds the next step is to build a
successful investment portfolio. Before you can begin to build a portfolio, one should
understand some other elements of mutual fund investing and how they can affect the
potential value of your investments over the years. The first thing that has to be kept in mind
is that when you invest in mutual funds, there is no guarantee that you will end up with more
money when you withdraw your investment than what you started out with. That is the
potential of loss is always there. The loss of value in your investment is what is considered
risk in investing.
Risk then, refers to the volatility -- the up and down activity in the markets and individual
issues that occurs constantly over time. This volatility can be caused by a number of factors --
23
interest rate changes, inflation or general economic conditions. It is this variability,
uncertainty and potential for loss, that causes investors to worry.
Different types of mutual funds have different levels of volatility or potential price change,
and those with the greater chance of losing value are also the funds that can produce the
greater returns for you over time. So risk has two sides: it causes the value of your
investments to fluctuate, but it is precisely the reason you can expect to earn higher returns.
You might find it helpful to remember that all financial investments will fluctuate. There are
very few perfectly safe havens and those simply don't pay enough to beat inflation over the
long run.
TYPES OF RISKS
All investments involve some form of risk. Consider these common types of risk and evaluate
them against potential rewards when you select an investment.
Market RiskAt times the prices or yields of all the securities in a particular market rise or fall due to broad
outside influences. When this happens, the stock prices of both an outstanding, highly
profitable company and a fledgling corporation may be affected. This change in price is due
to "market risk". Also known as systematic risk.
24
Inflation RiskSometimes referred to as "loss of purchasing power." Whenever inflation rises forward faster
than the earnings on your investment, you run the risk that you'll actually be able to buy less,
not more. Inflation risk also occurs when prices rise faster than your returns.
Credit RiskIn short, how stable is the company or entity to which you lend your money when you invest?
How certain are you that it will be able to pay the interest you are promised, or repay your
principal when the investment matures?
Interest Rate RiskChanging interest rates affect both equities and bonds in many ways. Investors are reminded
that "predicting" which way rates will go is rarely successful. A diversified portfolio can help
in offsetting these changes.
Exchange riskA number of companies generate revenues in foreign currencies and may have investments or
expenses also denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in exchange rates may, therefore,
have a positive or negative impact on companies which in turn would have an effect on the
investment of the fund.
Investment Risks The sectored fund schemes, investments will be predominantly in equities of select
companies in the particular sectors. Accordingly, the NAV of the schemes are linked to the
equity performance of such companies and may be more volatile than a more diversified
portfolio of equities.
Call RisksCall risk is associated with bonds have and embedded call option in them. This option gives
the issuer the right to call back the bonds prior to maturity. Then investor how ever is
exposed to some risks here. The price of the callable bond many not rise much above the
price at which the issuer may call the bond.
25
Changes in the Government PolicyChanges in Government policy especially in regard to the tax benefits may impact the
business prospects of the companies leading to an impact on the investments made by the
fund. Effect of loss of key professionals and inability to adapt business to the rapid
technological change.
An industries' key asset is often the personnel who run the business i.e. intellectual
properties of the key employees of the respective companies. Given the ever-changing
complexion of few industries and the high obsolescence levels, availability of qualified,
trained and motivated personnel is very critical for the success of industries in few sectors. It
is, therefore, necessary to attract key personnel and also to retain them to meet the changing
environment and challenges the sector offers. Failure or inability to attract/retain such
qualified key personnel may impact the prospects of the companies in the particular sec

History of the Indian Mutual Fund Industry:
The mutual fund industry in India started in 1963 with the formation of Unit Trust of India, at
the initiative of the Government of India and Reserve Bank the. The history of mutual funds
in India can be broadly divided into four distinct phases
First Phase – 1964-87(UTI MONOPOLY)
An Act of Parliament established Unit Trust of India (UTI) on 1963. It was set up by the
Reserve Bank of India and functioned under the Regulatory and administrative control of the
Reserve Bank of India. In 1978 UTI was de-linked from the RBI and the Industrial
Development Bank of India (IDBI) took over the regulatory and administrative control in
place of RBI. The first scheme launched by UTI was Unit Scheme 1964. At the end of 1988
UTI had Rs.6, 700 crores of assets under management.
Second Phase – 1987-1993 (Entry of Public Sector Funds)
1987 marked the entry of non- UTI, public sector mutual funds set up by public sector banks
and Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and General Insurance Corporation of India
(GIC). SBI Mutual Fund was the first non- UTI Mutual Fund established in June 1987
followed by Can bank Mutual Fund (Dec 87), Punjab National Bank Mutual Fund (Aug 89),
Indian Bank Mutual Fund (Nov 89), Bank of India (Jun 90), Bank of Baroda Mutual Fund
(Oct 92). LIC established its mutual fund in June 1989 while GIC had set up its mutual fund
in December 1990.
28
At the end of 1993, the mutual fund industry had assets under management of Rs.47, 004
cores.
Third Phase – 1993-2003 (Entry of Private Sector Funds)
With the entry of private sector funds in 1993, a new era started in the Indian mutual fund
industry, giving the Indian investors a wider choice of fund families. Also, 1993 was the year
in which the first Mutual Fund Regulations came into being, under which all mutual funds,
except UTI were to be registered and governed. The erstwhile Kothari Pioneer (now merged
with Franklin Templeton) was the first private sector mutual fund registered in July 1993.
Fourth Phase – since February 2003
In February 2003, following the repeal of the Unit Trust of India Act 1963 UTI was
bifurcated into two separate entities. One is the Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of
India with assets under management of Rs.29, 835 crores as at the end of November 2003,
representing broadly, the assets of US 64 scheme, assured return and certain other schemes.
The Specified Undertaking of Unit Trust of India, functioning under an administrator and
under the rules framed by Government of India and does not come under the purview of the
Mutual Fund Regulations.
The second is the UTI Mutual Fund Ltd, sponsored by SBI, PNB, BOB and LIC.
GROWTH IN ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT
29
India is at the first stage of a revolution that has already peaked in the U.S. The U.S. boasts of
an Asset base that is much higher than its bank deposits. In India, mutual fund assets are not
even 10% of the bank deposits, but this trend is beginning to change. Recent figures indicate
that in the first quarter of the current fiscal year.
The formation and operations of mutual funds in India is solely guided by SEBI (Mutual
Fund) Regulations, 1993, which came into force on 20 November 1993. The regulations have
since been replaced by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Mutual Funds)
Regulations, 1996, through a notification on 9 December 1996.
A mutual fund comprises four separate entities, namely sponsor, mutual fund trust, AMC and
custodian. They are of course assisted by other independent administrative entities like
30
banks, registrars and transfer agents. We may discuss in brief the formation of different
entities, their functions and obligations.
The sponsor for a mutual fund can by any person who, acting alone or in combination with
another body corporate establishes the mutual fund and gets it registered with SEBI. The
sponsor is required to contribute at least 40 per cent of the minimum net worth (Rs 10 crore)
of the asset management company. The sponsor must have a sound track record and general
reputation of fairness and integrity in all his business transactions.
As per SEBI Regulation, 1996, a mutual fund is to be formed by the sponsor and registered
with SEBI. A mutual fund shall be constituted in the form of a trust and the instrument of
trust shall be in the form of a deed, duly registered under the provisions of the Indian
Registration Act, 1908, executed by the sponsor in favor of trustees named in such an
instrument.
The trustees have the right to obtain relevant information from the AMC, as well as a
quarterly report on its activities. They can also dismiss the AMC under specific condition as
per SEBI regulations.
At least half the trustees should be independent persons. The AMC or its employees
cannot act as a trustee. No person who is appointed as a trustee of a mutual fund can be
appointed as a trustee of any other mutual fund unless he is an independent trustee and prior
permission is obtained from the mutual fund in which he is a trustee.
As per SEBI guidelines, an asset management company is appointed by the
trustees to float the schemes for the mutual fund and manage the funds raised by selling units
under a scheme. The AMC must act as per SEBI guidelines, trust deeds and management
agreement between trustee & the AMC.
The Importance of Accounting KnowledgeMutual funds in India are required to follow the accounting policies laid down in SEBI
(Mutual Fund) Regulations, 1996 and the amendments in 1998. This section of the workbook
summarizes the important Regulations, and periodical budgets.
31
Net Asset Value (NAV)A mutual fund is a common investment vehicle where the assets of the fund belong directly to
the investors. The fund does not account for investors' subscriptions as liabilities or deposits
but as Unit Capital. On the other hand, the investments made on behalf of the investors are
reflected on the assets side and are the main constituents of the balance sheet. There are,
however, liabilities of a strictly short-term nature that may be part of the balance sheet. The
fund's Net Assets are therefore defined as the assets minus the liabilities. As there are many
investors in a fund, it is common practice for mutual funds to compute the share of each
investor on the basis of the value of Net Assets Per Share/Unit, commonly known as the Net
Asset Value (NAV).
The following are the regulatory requirements and accounting definitions lay down by SEBI.
NAV = Net Assets of the scheme / Number of Units Outstanding, i.e. Market value of
investments + Receivables + Other Accrued Income + Other Assets
Accrued Expenses-Other Payables-Other Liabilities
No. Of Units Outstanding as at the NAV date
A fund's NAV is affected by four sets of factors:
-- Purchase and sale of investment securities
-- Valuation of all investment securities held
-- Other assets and liabilities, and
-- Units sold or redeemed
Pricing of Units:
Although NAV per share defines the value of the investor's holding in the fund, the
fund may not repurchase the investor's units at the same price as NAV. However, SEBI
requires that the fund must ensure that repurchase price is not lower than 93% of NAV (95%
in the case of a closed end fund). On the other side, a fund may sell new units at a price that is
different from the NAV, but the sale price cannot be higher than 107% of NAV. Also, the
difference the repurchase price and the sale price of the unit is not permitted to exceed 7% of
the sale price.
32
=
Fees and Expenses:
An AMC may incur many expenses specifically for given schemes, and other
common expenses. In any case, all expenses should be clearly Unidentified and allocated to
the individual schemes. The AMC may charge the scheme with investment management and
advisory fees that are fully disclosed in the offer document subject to the following limits:
@ 1.25% of the first Rs. 100 crore of weekly average net assets outstanding in the
accounting year, and @ 1% of weekly average net assets in excess of Rs. 100 crore.
For no load schemes, the AMC may charge an additional management fee up to 1% of
weekly average net assets outstanding in the accounting year.
Initial Issue Expenses:
When a scheme is first launched, the AMC will incur significant expenses, whose
benefit will accrue over many years. All expenses cannot, therefore, be charged to a scheme
in the first year itself. SEBI permits "amortization" of initial expenses as follows:
For a closed-end scheme floated on a 'load' basis, the initial issue expenses shall be
amortized on a weekly basis over the period of scheme. For example, a 5-year (i.e. 260 week)
closed-end scheme with initial issue expenses of Rs. 5 lakhs must charge Rs.1923 (5 lakhs /
260 weeks) every week to the fund. It cannot charge the entire amount of Rs. 5 lakhs at the
time of issue.
For an open-end scheme floated on a 'load' basis, initial issue expenses may be amortized
over a period not exceeding five years. For example, if an open-end scheme has initial issue
expenses of Rs. 10 lakhs, it need not charge this entire amount to the fund in the year of issue.
Instead, it may charge Rs. 2 lakhs (10 lakhs / 5 years) per year to the fund, thereby spreading
the charge of initial issue expenses over a maximum of 5 years. Issue expenses incurred
during the life of an open-end scheme cannot be amortized.
33
Un amortized portion of initial issue expenses shall be included for NAV calculation,
considered as "other asset". The investment advisory fee cannot be claimed on this asset.
Hence, they have to be excluded while determining the chargeable investment management /
advisory fees. While calculating the maximum amount of chargeable expenses, the un
amortized portion of the initial issue expenses will not be included as part of the average
weekly net assets figure.
Accounting Policies: Investments are required to be marked to market using market prices. Any unrealized
appreciation cannot be distributed, and provision must be made for the same.
Dividend received by the fund on a share should be recognized, not on the date of
declaration, but on the date the share is quoted on ex-dividend basis. For example, if a fund
owns shares on which dividend is declared on April 5, and the shares are quoted on ex-
dividend basis on April 20, the dividend income will be included by the fund for
distribution/NAV computation only April 20.
In determining gain or loss on sale of investments, the average cost method must be
followed to determine the cost of purchase. This will be applied by security.
Purchase / sale of investments should be recognized on the trade date and not settlement
date
Bonus / rights shares should be recognized only when the original shares are traded on the
stock exchange on an ex-bonus /ex-rights basis
Income receivable on investments, which is accrued, but not received for 12 months beyond
due date, should be provided for, and no further accrual should be made for such investment
An investment shall be regarded as non-performing if it has provided no returns through
dividend/interest for more than 2years at the end of the accounting year
VALUATION Mutual funds value their investments on a 'mark-to-market' basis with reference to the date
on which they are valued i.e., the valuation date.
Valuation of Traded Securities:
34
Where a security is traded on a stock exchange, it is valued at the last quoted closing price
on the stock exchange where it is "principally traded".
If a security is not traded on any stock exchange on a particular valuation day, the value at
which it was traded on the selected/other stock exchange on the
Earliest previous day may be used, provided such date is not more than 60 days prior to the
valuation date.
Valuation of traded securities, once the market price is obtained as above, is quite simple.
The fund will multiply its current holding in number of shares or bonds by the applicable
market price to get the "mark to market" value.
valuation of Non-traded Securities: When a security is not traded on any stock exchange for 60 days prior to the valuation date,
it must be treated as non-traded' scrip.
Non-traded securities shall be valued 'in good faith' by the AMC on the basis of appropriate
valuation methods, which shall be periodically reviewed by the trustees and reported by the
auditors as fair and reasonable. The following principles are to be applied for the valuation of
non-traded securities:
Equity instruments: are to be valued on the basis of capitalization of earnings solely or in
combination with its balance sheet Net Asset Value. For this purpose, capitalization rate will
be determined by reference to the price or earning rations of comparable traded securities
with an appropriate discount for lower liquidity to be used.
Debit instruments: are to be valued on a yield to maturity basis, the capitalization factor
being determined for comparable traded securities with an appropriate discount for lower
liquidity.
Call money, bills purchased: under rediscounting and short term deposits with banks are
to be valued at cost + accrual: other money market instruments at yield at which they are
currently traded; non-traded instruments (not traded for 7 days) will be valued at cost plus
interest accrued till the beginning of the valuation day plus the difference between
redemption value and cost, spread uniformly over the remaining maturity of the instruments
35
Government Securities: are to be valued at yield to maturity based on prevailing
market rate
Convertible debentures and bonds: non-convertible component is to be valued as a
debt instrument, and convertible as any equity instrument. If after Conversion, the resultant
equity instrument would be traded pari passu with an existing instrument, which is traded, the
value of the latter instrument can be adopted after an appropriate discount for the non-
tradability of the instrument.
RISK INVOLVED IN MUTUAL FUNDS INDUSTRY:
Mutual funds are not free from risk. It is so because basically the mutual funds also invest
their funds in stock markets on shares, which are volatile in nature and are not risk free, the
following risk are inherent in their dealing.
INHERENT RISK FACTORS:
1) Market Risks:In general there are certain risks associated with the every kind of investment on shares. They
are called market risks. These market risks can be reduced, but cannot be completely
eliminated even by a good investment.
2) Scheme RisksThere are certain risks inherent in the scheme itself. It all depends upon the nature of the
scheme. For instance, in a pure growth scheme, risks are greater.
3) Investment Risks Whether the mutual fund makes money in shares or loses depends upon the investment
expertise of the Asset Management Company. If the investment advice goes wrong, the fund
has to suffer a lot.
4) Business RisksThe corpus of a mutual fund might have been invested in a company’s shares. If the business
of that company suffers any set back, it cannot declare any dividend. It may even go to the
extent of winding up its business.
5) Political RisksSuccessive Governments bring with them fancy new economic ideologies and policies. It is
often said that many economic decisions are politically motivated.

PARAMETERS DESCRIPTION
The following parameters were considered for analysis:
Beta
Alpha
Correlation coefficient
Treynor’s Ratio
Sharpe’s Ratio
Jensen’s Ratio
37
BetaBeta is a measure of volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or portfolio in comparison to
the market as a whole. Beta measures a stock's volatility, the degree to which a stock price
fluctuates in relation to the overall market. Investment analysts use the Greek letter beta, ß. It
is calculated using regression analysis. A beta of 1 indicates that the security's price will
move with the market. A beta greater than 1 indicates that the security's price will be more
volatile than the market, and a beta less than 1 means that it will be less volatile than the
market.
Here is a basic guide to various betas:
Negative beta - A beta less than 0 is possible but highly unlikely. People used to
think that gold and gold stocks should have negative betas because they tended to do
better when the stock market declined, but this hasn't been true overall.
Beta = 0 - Basically this is cash (assuming no inflation).
Beta between 0 and 1 - Low-volatility investments, such as utilities, are usually in
this range
Beta = 1 - This is the same as an index, such as the S&P 500 or some other index
fund.
Beta greater than 1 - This denotes anything more volatile than the broad-based
index, like a sector fund.
Beta greater than 100 - This is impossible because the stock would be expected go
to zero on any decline in the stock market. The beta never gets higher than two to
three.
The beta value for an index itself is taken as one. Equity funds can have beta values, which
can be above one, less than one or equal to one. By multiplying the beta value of a fund with
the expected percentage movement of an index, the expected movement in the fund can be
determined. Thus if a fund has a beta of 1.2 and the market is expected to move up by ten per
38
cent, the fund should move by 12 per cent Similarly if the market loses ten per cent, the fund
should lose 12 per cent.
Alpha
A measure of risk, used for mutual funds with regards to their relation and the market. A
positive alpha is the extra return awarded to the investor for taking a risk, instead of accepting
the market return
The formula for alpha is:
Alpha = [ (sum of y) - ((b)(sum of x)) ] / n
n =number of observations (36 mos.)
b = beta of the fund
x = rate of return for the market
y = rate of return for the fund
39
Standard Deviation
Standard deviation is probably used more than any other
Measure to describe the risk of a security (or portfolio of securities). If you read an academic
study on investment performance, chances are that standard deviation will be used to gauge
risk. It's not just a financial tool, though. Standard deviation is one of the most commonly
used statistical tools in the sciences and social sciences. It provides a precise measure of the
amount of variation in any group of numbers--the returns of a mutual fund.
Measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. The more spread apart the data is,
the higher the deviation. Standard deviation is applied to the annual rate of return of an
investment to measure the investment's volatility (risk).
Correlation
Correlation is a useful tool for determining if relationships exist between securities. A
correlation coefficient is the result of a mathematical comparison of how closely related two
variables are.
The relationship between two variables is said to be highly correlated if a movement in one
variable results or takes place at the same time as a similar movement in another variable.
Correlation analysis is a measure of the degree to which a change in the independent variable
will result in a change in the dependent variable. A low correlation coefficient (e.g., ±0.1)
suggests that the relationship between the two variables is weak or non-existent. A high
correlation coefficient (e.g., ±0.80) indicates that the dependent variable will most likely
change when the Independent variable changes. Correlation can also be used for a study
between an indicator and a stock or index to help determine the predictive abilities of changes
in the indicator.

PORTFOLIO MEASUREMENT METHODS:
We are interested in discovering if the management of a mutual fund is performing well; that
is, has management done better through its selective buying and selling of securities than
would have been achieved through merely “buying the market” ––picking a large number of
securities randomly and holding them throughout the period?
The most popular ways of measuring management’s performance are
1. Sharpe’s Performance Measure
2. Treynor’s Performance Measure
3. Jensen’s Performance Measure
SHARPE’S RATIOSharpe’s is the summary measure of portfolio performance which properly adjusts
performance for risk. It measures the risk premiums of the portfolio relative to the total
amount of risk in the portfolio.
The Sharpe’s index is given by:
Sharpe’s Index = (Average return on portfolio – Risk less rate of interest)
(Deviation of returns on portfolio)
Graphifically the index measures the slope of the line emanating from the risk less rate
outward to the portfolio in question. Thus, the Sharpe Index summarizes the risk and return
of a portfolio in a single measure that categorizes the performance of the fund on a risk-
adjusted basis. The larger the value of Sharpe Index the better the portfolio has performed.
TREYNOR’S RATIOTreynor’s ratio measures the risk premium of the portfolio, where risk premium equals the
difference between the return of the portfolio and the risk less rate. The risk premium is
related to the amount of systematic risk assumed in the portfolio. Graphically; the index
measures the slope of the line emanating outward from risk less rate to the portfolio under
consideration.
Treynors ratio is given as (Average return of portfolio –Risk less rate of interest)
Treynor Index = ------------------------------------------------------- Beta coefficient of portfolio
41
Jensen’s Performance Measure (Michael)
It refers the actual return earned in portfolio and return expected out of portfolio given its
level of risk.
CAPM – is used to calculate the expected return. The difference between the expected return
and act retain can be said the return earned out of the mandatory of systematic risk.
This excess return refers the manager’s predictive ability and managerial skills.
CAPM
rp = rf + (rm – rf)
Differential return is calculated as follows:
p = rp - rp
p =positive ––> Superior returns
p = Negative ––> Unskilled management (worse portfolio)
p = 0 ––> Neutral performance
Higher alpha represents superior performance of a fund and vice versa.

INDUSTRY PROFILE ( Industry profile then company profile)
Banking in India originated in the last decades of the 18th century. The oldest bank in
existence in India is the State Bank of India, a government-owned bank that traces its origins
back to June 1806 and that is the largest commercial bank in the country. Central banking is
the responsibility of the Reserve Bank of India, which in 1935 formally took over these
responsibilities from the then Imperial Bank of India, relegating it to commercial banking
functions. After India's independence in 1947, the Reserve Bank was nationalized and given
broader powers. In 1969 the government nationalized the 14 largest commercial banks; the
government nationalized the six next largest in 1980.
Currently, India has 96 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) - 27 public sector banks (that is
with the Government of India holding a stake), 31 private banks (these do not have
government stake; they may be publicly listed and traded on stock exchanges) and 38 foreign
banks. They have a combined network of over 53,000 branches and 17,000 ATMs.
According to a report by ICRA Limited, a rating agency, the public sector banks hold over 75
percent of total assets of the banking industry, with the private and foreign banks holding
18.2% and 6.5% respectively
Early history
Banking in India originated in the last decades of the 18th century. The first banks were The
General Bank of India which started in 1786, and the Bank of Hindustan, both of which are
now defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of India, which
originated in the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost immediately became the Bank
of Bengal. This was one of the three presidency banks, the other two being the Bank of
Bombay and the Bank of Madras, all three of which were established under charters from the
British East India Company. For many years the Presidency banks acted as quasi-central
banks, as did their successors. The three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of
India, which, upon India's independence, became the State Bank of India.
Indian merchants in Calcutta established the Union Bank in 1839, but it failed in 1848 as a
consequence of the economic crisis of 1848-49. The Allahabad Bank, established in 1865 and
still functioning today, is the oldest Joint Stock bank in India. It was not the first though. That
honor belongs to the Bank of Upper India, which was established in 1863, and which
43
survived until 1913, when it failed, with some of its assets and liabilities being transferred to
the Alliance Bank of Simla.
When the American Civil War stopped the supply of cotton to Lancashire from the
Confederate States, promoters opened banks to finance trading in Indian cotton. With large
exposure to speculative ventures, most of the banks opened in India during that period failed.
The depositors lost money and lost interest in keeping deposits with banks. Subsequently,
banking in India remained the exclusive domain of Europeans for next several decades until
the beginning of the 20th century.
Foreign banks too started to arrive, particularly in Calcutta, in the 1860s. The Comptoire
d'Escompte de Paris opened a branch in Calcutta in 1860, and another in Bombay in 1862;
branches in Madras and Pondichery, then a French colony, followed. HSBC established itself
in Bengal in 1869. Calcutta was the most active trading port in India, mainly due to the trade
of the British Empire, and so became a banking center.
The Bank of Bengal, which later became the State Bank of India.
The first entirely Indian joint stock bank was the Oudh Commercial Bank, established in
1881 in Faizabad. It failed in 1958. The next was the Punjab National Bank, established in
Lahore in 1895, which has survived to the present and is now one of the largest banks in
India.
Around the turn of the 20th Century, the Indian economy was passing through a relative
period of stability. Around five decades had elapsed since the Indian Mutiny, and the social,
industrial and other infrastructure had improved. Indians had established small banks, most of
which served particular ethnic and religious communities.
