ICICI Prudential PSU Equity Fund-Growth
The fund is rated 2 stars. Balance between returns and downside risk was a strength, while investment selection within each industry provided some support. Investment selection within each asset type was the main limitation and did not provide enough support for a higher rating. Higher annual fee of 2.34% was a minor drawback.
This fund has a bad track record with Asset Selection/Timing, a ok track record with Stock Selection/Timing, a good risk-reward ratio. It is important to note, however, that this fund has a 1850.346 AUM and a 2.34 expense ratio. Considering all these factors, we have rated this fund as 2.0 star.
Our score weighs long-term performance, risk and consistency — not just past returns.
