Frequently asked questions
Which has a higher 3-year return, Union Multicap Fund or WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund?
Union Multicap Fund's 3-year rolling CAGR of 18.3% is higher than WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund's 17.3%. Union Multicap Fund sits in the 55th percentile of its category on this metric, versus the 27th percentile for WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund - though note both funds may belong to different categories with different medians, so a raw CAGR comparison doesn't account for how each fund performed relative to its own peers. A higher historical return also doesn't necessarily mean lower risk; check the risk metrics below before concluding either fund is the "better" choice.
Which has a lower expense ratio, Union Multicap Fund or WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund?
WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund's direct-plan expense ratio is 0.52 percentage points lower than Union Multicap 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, Union Multicap Fund or WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund?
By standard deviation (a measure of how much a fund's returns swing around its own average), Union Multicap Fund has been more volatile than WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap 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 (0.33 for Union Multicap Fund vs 0.58 for WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap 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, Union Multicap Fund or WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund?
WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund has ₹4,302 Cr in assets under management, versus ₹1,496 Cr for Union Multicap 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 has a higher yield to maturity (YTM), Union Multicap Fund or WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund?
Union Multicap Fund's portfolio YTM (5.409%) is higher than WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund's. YTM is the weighted-average return a debt fund's current bond holdings would earn if held to maturity, assuming no defaults and coupons reinvested at the same rate - a useful forward-looking yield estimate for debt funds the way rolling CAGR is for equity funds, though it's an estimate based on today's portfolio, not a guaranteed return, and can move as bonds are bought/sold or as interest rates change.
Which fund has a longer track record, Union Multicap Fund or WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund?
Union Multicap Fund launched on 2022-11-28, making it older than WhiteOak Capital Multi Cap Fund (launched 2023-08-31). 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.
