Frequently asked questions
Which has a lower expense ratio, Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund or HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund?
Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund's direct-plan expense ratio is 0.02 percentage points lower than HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund's. Over long holding periods, a persistent expense-ratio gap compounds into a materially different final corpus even if the two funds' gross returns are similar - it's one of the few fund attributes you can compare with total certainty upfront, unlike future returns, since the fee is contractually fixed rather than a historical estimate.
Which fund carries more risk, Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund or HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund?
By standard deviation (a measure of how much a fund's returns swing around its own average), HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund has been more volatile than Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund over the trailing window. Standard deviation captures total volatility in both directions - up and down - so a higher figure means bigger swings generally, not necessarily bigger losses specifically. Sharpe ratio (1.31 for Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund vs 1.15 for HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund) is a better single measure of risk-adjusted return, since it weighs the return earned per unit of volatility taken rather than volatility alone.
Which has higher AUM, Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund or HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund?
Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund has ₹2,433 Cr in assets under management, versus ₹82 Cr for HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund. A larger AUM generally means deeper liquidity and lower per-unit fixed costs for the AMC to spread across investors, but an AUM that's very large relative to a fund's category and strategy (especially in small/mid cap categories, where the investable universe is smaller) can also make it harder for a manager to enter and exit positions without moving the price - bigger isn't automatically better, especially for less liquid categories.
Which fund has a longer track record, Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund or HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund?
HSBC Asia Pacific (Ex Japan) Dividend Yield Fund launched on 2014-02-03, making it older than Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund (launched 2020-09-04). A longer track record means more real market cycles (bull runs, corrections, rate cycles) the fund has actually navigated, which is useful context for judging consistency - but it isn't a guarantee of future performance, and a newer fund isn't automatically worse, especially if it's run by an experienced manager or team with a track record at a prior fund.
