COMPARATIVE STUDY ON BANKING SECTOR MUTUAL FUNDS - NetworthTRANSCRIPT
Chapter -1
INTRODUCTION
Problem Definition
The Indian capital market has been increasing tremendously during last few years.
With the reforms of economy, reforms of industrial policy, reforms of public sector and
reforms of financial sector, the economy has been opened up and many developments
have been taking place in the Indian money market and capital market. In order to help
the small investors, mutual fund industry has come to occupy an important place. The
objective of this is to examine the importance and growth of mutual funds and evaluate
the operations of mutual funds and suggest some measures to make it a successful
scheme in India.
The essential purpose behind mutual funds is to secure two important benefits for
small investors:-
(a) Diversification of risk and
(b) Professional management of investments
As regards diversification mutual funds can spread their investments over dozens or
even hundreds of companies but this is not possible for a small investor. Diversification
reduces risk. As regards diversification of risk may be noted that success in the
investment game requires that one must be prepared to spend the time required for
selecting investments and one must also have the necessary skills.
A majority of ordinary investors can’t devote the time required or don’t have the skills.
This is not to say that all mutual funds are good. There are wide differences in their
performance. Such differences become noticeable only over a long period of 5-10
years. Over short periods of 1-2 years, a particular fund may, at one time, be among the
best, and at another time among the worst. Hence, you should choose from among the
mutual funds those which have a record of consistently good performance and possess
characteristics (e.g. the industry composition of investments) which will help to achieve
good long term performance.
In the case of equity funds, the ups and downs in the equity market have direct effect on
the performance of the equity funds. This is an inherent source of risk over both short-
term and long-term in the case of equity funds. An investor inequity funds should have
some understanding of the equity market’s behaviour. How do we ensure that the mutual
fund will be managed in the best interest of the unit holders? This problem is taken care
of partly by the regulatory system and partly by fairly fierce competition among the
mutual funds for the investor’s money.
Deposits have some similarities with structured investment products, which offer 100%
capital protection. In both cases, returns might be linked to the performance of one or more
indices, securities or commodities. However, the mechanisms for delivering protection of
capital are quite different. In the case of a deposit, the deposit-taking firm has an obligation
to repay the depositor, while in the case of a structured investment product, the protection
is usually provided by a third party issuer of debt securities.
Firms communicating with customers in relation to accepting deposits must, from 1
November 2009, comply with the rules in the Banking Conduct of Business Sourcebook
(BCOBS).1. In relation to deposit promotions, standards have not altered, as the new
rules in BCOBS 2 are equivalent to the COBS 4 rules that applied previously.
Key issues identified
Issues we identified from our sample included:
¸ Explanations about the nature of deposit protection or ‘guarantees’ were either
omitted or potentially misleading,
¸ Lack of clarity about the roles and relationship of the promoter and deposit taker;
¸ Headline rates that do not clarify that it is possible to receive no return;
¸ Complex restrictions and rates of return; and
¸ Uncertainty and inconsistency about how to describe and categorise structured
deposits.
Firms must ensure that descriptions of structured deposits in financial promotions are fair,
accurate and sufficiently clear for the average member of the promotion’s target audience to
understand. This may pose particular challenges where the basis for the return on the deposit
is more complex, but inexperienced customers may view structured deposits as
simple savings products. Although some structured deposits are indeed very simple, we
saw others that were either inherently complicated or described in a way that made
them appear so.
The main purpose is to examine the performance of the mutual fund industry in India and
Fixed Deposits in INDIA and compare their performance to know whether Fixed
deposits are better to invest in than Mutual Funds. The study should definitely safe-guard
the interest of Investors. Hence the research is carried to suggest the Schemes based on
their Risk Profile.ang some progress, the progress has been set with
1.1. Mutual fund
A mutual fund is a scheme in which several people invest their money for a
common financial cause. The collected money invests in the capital market and the
money, which they earned, is divided based on the number of units, which they hold.
The mutual fund industry started in India in a small way with the UTI Act creating what
was effectively a small savings division within the RBI. Over a period of 25 years this
grew fairly successfully and gave investors a good return, and therefore in 1989, as the
next logical step, public sector banks and financial institutions were allowed to float
mutual funds and their success emboldened the government to allow the private sector to
foray into this area.
There are many types of mutual funds. We can classify funds based on:-
1. Structure
Open-

2. Nature
Equity
Debt
Balanced
3. Investment objective
Growth
Income
Money market etc.
CONCEPT OF MUTUAL FUND:-
A mutual fund is a common pool of money into which investors place their
contributions that are to be invested in accordance with a stated objective. The ownership
of the fund is thus joint or “mutual”; the fund belongs to all investors. A single investor’s
ownership of the fund is in the same proportion as the amount of the contribution made
by him or her bears to the total amount of the fund Mutual Funds are trusts, which accept
savings from investors and invest the same in diversified financial instruments in terms of
objectives set out in the trusts deed with the view to reduce the risk and maximize the
income and capital appreciation for distribution for the members. A Mutual Fund is a
corporation and the fund manager’s interest is to professionally manage the funds
provided by the investors and provide a return on them after deducting reasonable
management fees.
Working of Mutual Funds:
The following figure explains the working of Mutual funds
Figure-1
Common Terms Used
¸ Net Asset Value (NAV) : Net Asset Value is the market value of the assets of
the scheme minus its liabilities. Per unit NAV is the net asset value of the
scheme divided by the number of units outstanding on the Valuation Date
¸ Beta : A measure of the volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or a
portfolio in comparison to the market as a whole. Beta is calculated using
regression analysis, and indicates the tendency of a security's returns to
respond to swings in the market. A beta of 1 indicates that the security's price
will move with the market. A beta indicates that the security's price will be
more volatile than the market.
History of Mutual Funds
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 of India.
The history of mutual funds in India can be broadly divided into four distinct phases.
First Phase – 1964-87
Unit Trust of India (UTI) was established on 1963 by an Act of
Parliament. 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 Canbank 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). At the end of 1993,
the mutual fund industry had assets under management of Rs.47, 004 crores.
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.
The 1993 SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations were substituted by a more
comprehensive and revised Mutual Fund Regulations in 1996. The industry now
functions under the SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations 1996.
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
January 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.

1882. The sponsor of RMF is Reliance Capital Limited and Reliance Capital Trustee Co.
Limited is the Trustee. It was registered on June 30, 1995 as Reliance Capital Mutual
Fund which was changed on March 11, 2004. Reliance Mutual Fund was formed for
launching of various schemes under which units are issued to the Public with a view to
contribute to the capital market and to provide investors the opportunities to make
investments in diversified securities.RMF is one of India’s leading Mutual Funds, with
Average Assets Under Management (AAUM) of Rs. 88,388 crores (AAUM for 30th Apr

1.1(C) UNIT TRUST OF INDIA MUTUAL FUND:-
'Unit Trust of India was created by the UTI Act passed by the Parliament in 1963.
For more than two decades it remained the sole vehicle for investment in the capital
market by the Indian citizens. In mid- 1980s public sector banks were allowed to open
mutual funds. The real vibrancy and competition in the MF industry came with the setting
up of the Regulator SEBI and its laying down the MF Regulations in 1993.UTI
maintained its pre-eminent place till 2001, when a massive decline in the market indices
and negative investor sentiments after Ketan Parekh scam created doubts about the
capacity of UTI to meet its obligations to the investors. This was further compounded by
two factors; namely, its flagship and largest scheme US 64 was sold and re-purchased not
at intrinsic NAV but at artificial price and its Assured Return Schemes had promised
returns as high as 18% over a period going up to two decades.
Vision:-To be the most Preferred Mutual Fund.

1.2 Bank Fixed Deposits
Bank Fixed Deposits are also known as Term Deposits. In a Fixed Deposit
Account, a certain sum of money is deposited in the bank for a specified time period
with a fixed rate of interest.
The rate of interest for Bank Fixed Deposits depends on the maturity period. It is higher
in case of longer maturity period. There is great flexibility in maturity period and it
ranges from 7days to 10 years. The interest is compounded annually and is added to the
principal amount. Minimum deposit amount is Rs 1000/- and there is no upper limit.
Loan / overdraft facility is available against bank fixed deposits. Premature withdrawal is
permissible but some penalty is levied. Tax Deductible at Source, if the interest paid/
payable on deposit exceeds Rs.5000/- per customer, per year, per branch.
1.2(A) State Bank of India Fixed Deposits
State Bank of India fixed deposit is a good option to earn higher income on
surplus funds. Bank offers flexibility in period from 15 days to 10 years and can be
opened with a nominal amount of Rs. 1000/- only. Against your fixed deposit you can
take loan/overdraft during your urgent financial requirement. There is premature
withdrawal facility, transfer of term deposit within bank network with out any charge,
interest is accumulated in your account timely and gets compounded quarterly, automatic
renewal of your deposits on maturity. You can convert your special term deposit and vice
versa.
1.2(B) Federal Bank Fixed Deposits
Federal Bank fixed deposit gives you option to give instructions while placing
deposits with regard to closure or renewal of deposit. There is nomination facility. You
can withdraw your money at premature or can get premature renewal of the deposit. You
can take advance also against deposit.
Federal Fixed Deposit Benefits
v Minimum amount Rs.1000.
v Quarterly /Monthly interest payments.
v Advance upto 90% of deposit.
1.2( C) ICICI Bank Fixed Deposit
ICICI Bank was originally promoted in 1994 by ICICI Limited, an Indian financial
institution, and was its wholly-owned subsidiary. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors
of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail
finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services
Limited, with ICICI Bank.
ICICI bank has a set of choice of investment plans attached to fixed deposit. You get a wide
range of tenures along with auto renewal facility on maturity of deposits. You can open
term deposit with nominal amount of Rs 1000/- only. Bank has a loan facility against
deposit. The re-investment plans on fixed deposits are lucrative as re-investment fixed
deposit rates do not change in fact works like a recurring debit account transaction.

1.4 RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
The Research Objectives are formulated using KSA model as follows.
1.4 (A) KSA model
Definition of KSA
KSA model is a competency model of individual. KSA is the same KSAO.
KSA include Knowledge, Skills and Abilities (also called KSAs model) that an
applicant must have to perform successfully in the position. KSA are listed in the
“Qualifications and Evaluation” section of the job announcement.
Components of KSA:
1. Knowledge
A body of information needed to perform a task.
• For example, Human Resources Knowledge includes knowledge of
personnel recruitment, selection, training, compensation and benefits,
labour relations and negotiation, and personnel information systems.
2. Skills
Skills are the proficiency to perform a certain task.

METHODS OF DATA COLLECTION
Secondary data:
Secondary data means already available through books, journals, magazines,
newspaper, and internet. . The major sources of secondary data are given below.
∑ Textbooks
∑ Websites
∑ News papers
∑ The required data has been collected from websites like
www.moneycontrol.co m , www.bseindia.com.
ANALYSIS:
For the proper analysis of data statistical (mean, standard deviation and
co-variance) and financial (Beta and CAPM) method was used.
DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
Data analysis and interpretation is the process of assigning meaning to the
collected information and determining the conclusions, significance, and
implications of the findings. The steps involved in data analysis are a function of
the type of information collected, however, returning to the purpose of the
assessment and the assessment questions will provide a structure for the
organization of the data and a focus for the analysis.
Quantitative Data is presented in a numerical format collected in a standardized
manner e.g. surveys, closed-ended interviews, tests analyzed using statistical
techniques
The analysis of NUMERICAL (QUANTITATIVE) DATA is represented in
mathematical
terms. The most common statistical terms include:
∑ Mean – The mean score represents a numerical average for a set of responses.
∑ Standard deviation – The standard deviation represents the distribution
of the responses around the mean. It indicates the degree of consistency
among the responses. The standard deviation, in conjunction with the
mean, provides a better understanding of the data. For example, if the
mean is 3.3 with a standard deviation (StD) of 0.4, then two-thirds of the
responses lie between 2.9 (3.3 – 0.4) and 3.7 (3.3 + 0.4).
∑ Variance-A measure of the dispersion of a set of data points around their
mean value. Variance is a mathematical expectation of the average
squared deviations from the mean. Variance measures the variability
(volatility) from an average. Volatility is a measure of risk, so this statistic
can help determine the risk an investor might take on when purchasing a
specific security.
∑ Co-variance- A measure of the degree to which returns on two risky
assets move in tandem. A positive covariance means that asset returns
move together. A negative covariance means returns move inversely.
One method of calculating covariance is by looking at return surprises
(deviations from expected return) in each scenario. Another method is to
multiply the correlation between the two variables by the standard deviation of
each variable.
Possessing financial assets that provide returns and have a high covariance
with each other will not provide very much diversification.
For example, if stock A's return is high whenever stock B's return is high
and the same can be said for low returns, then these stocks are said to have a
positive covariance. If an investor wants a portfolio whose assets have diversified
earnings, he or she should pick financial assets that have low covariance to each
other.
In the project work, NAV and Nifty values are considered from 1st January 2005
to 31st December 2012. These values were then considered quarterly to calculate
mean, standard deviation, co variance. This was followed by calculation of
CAPM. During the project 3
mutual funds i.e SBI mutual fund, Reliance Mutual fund and UTI mutual funds
was considered. On the other hand 3 fixed deposits were also considered i.e SBI
Fixed Deposit, ICICI Fixed Deposit and Federal Bank Fixed Deposit.
The rate of return associated with the level of risk and the performance of mutual
funds is compared and analysed with respect to the performance of fixed deposits
in India.
The entire aim of the project work is to analyse the fact that Fixed Deposits are
better investing option than Mutual Funds.
∑ Sharpe Ratio: A ratio to measure risk-adjusted performance. The Sharpe
ratio is calculated by subtracting the risk-free rate from the rate of return
for a portfolio and dividing the result by the standard deviation of the
portfolio returns. The Sharpe ratio formula is:
Calculation of Sharpe Ratio:-
S(x) = ( Rx - Rf ) / StdDev(x)
Where,
x is some investment
Rx is the average annual rate of return of x
Rf is the best available rate of return of a "risk-free"
security StdDev(x) is the standard deviation of Rx
The Sharpe ratio tells us whether a portfolio's returns are due to smart investment
decisions or a result of excess risk. The greater a portfolio's Sharpe ratio, the
better its risk-adjusted performance has been. A negative Sharpe ratio indicates
that a risk-less asset would perform better than the security being analyzed.
The research design followed in the study is as follows:
∑ Title of the Study : “COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE
PERFORMANCE OF THREE INCOME FUNDS
(MUTUAL FUNDS) WITH THE TOP THREE
FIXED DEPOSIT’S SCHEMES OF BANKS (SBI,
ICICI & FEDERAL BANK) IN INDIA”
∑ Period : 01-Jan-2013 to 31-mar-2013
∑ Sample size : 3 schemes of Mutual Funds
: 3 schemes of Fixed Deposits
∑ Representative sample : 3 Mutual Funds:- SBI MAGNUM FUND, RELIANCE
MUTUAL FUND and UTI MUTUAL FUND.
: 3 Fixed Deposits:- SBI, ICICI, FEDERAL BANK.
∑ Project Design : The project design selected for this project is
Descriptive project design. Descriptive design is one
that is concern with describing the characteristics of
consumers/ dealers who use/ sell the product/ services.
Hence here the characteristics and performance of
Mutual funds and Fixed deposits are studied through
secondary information.
Sampling technique : Systematic sampling technique used keeping in mind with
the following, funds and fixed deposits which are in to the market for more than 5
years, different investment styles are chosen to know the importance of risk and return
involved.
1.6 LIMITATIONS OF THE PROJECT
The limitations of the project are as follows:-
v The time constraint was one of the major problems.
v The study is limited to the different schemes available under the
mutual funds and fixed deposits selected.
v The study is limited to selected mutual fund and fixed deposit schemes.
v The lack of information sources for the analysis part.
v Sample limitation
v Reliability: - The data collected by me is not much reliable
v Parameters: - All the parameters have not been taken.
v Lack of Awareness
v Past performance may or may not sustain in the future
v Unpredictable change in the market condition will prove difficulty
in analysis of preferred sector for investing
v Investor preference is analyzed based only on observation
v Market risk is not taken in to consideration due to non possibility
of information
v Micro level data have been taken in analysis; Macro level data may
affect the returns.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Review of the literature plays an important role in any research, it is
considering the importance of mutual funds and several academicians have tried
to study the performance of various mutual funds. Literature on mutual fund
performance evaluation is enormous.
Standard deviation, average variance and average coefficient of variation (COV)
are techniques used for measuring the performance of Mutual Funds and Fixed
Deposits.

Abstract
Financial innovations have become the central driving force taking any
financial system towards economic efficiency. Indian Capital market has shown a
spurt growth with financial innovations becoming a regular feature leading to
change in investor's preferences for newly fangled financial innovations. Mutual
fund has become an obvious choice for most of the investors because of its
performance in terms of providing higher returns at high risk.
At the same time there are bank that offers Fixed Deposit schemes that look
attractive enough. And even some of the top Mutual Funds that offer income
schemes often find it challenge to compute with this FD schemes.

Abstract
In this paper the performance evaluation of Indian mutual funds and fixed
deposits is carried out through risk-return analysis. The data used is daily closing
NAVs.
"Security Market Line" (SML) uses the systematic risk termed beta. Beta is
defined as the covariance between a security (or portfolio of securities) and the
market as a whole, divided by the variance of the market. The market as a whole
is considered the point
of tangency between the SML and the efficient frontier This is the
foundation for the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

Abstract
Equity mutual fund is risk adjusted return in which individual fund does
not earn higher returns from following the momentum strategy in stock (Carhart,
1997) because of investment constraints (Almazan, 2004). Restriction on
competing products is the reason of the development of money market and short
term bond funds (Klapper, 2000). Therefore, an investor should invest in small
equity fund whose trading activity is high (Dahlquist, 2000) or whose expense
ratio is low ( Malkiel, 1995) . Funds that heavily underperform have very high
expense ratio, while funds that are successful do not increase revenues by raising
their fees but benefit from increased size of their funds (Elton 1996, Carhat 1997).
Actively managed equity funds charge higher fees than index tracking funds or
bond and money market funds, reflecting the higher costs of employing
investment management staff to achieve diversification and strategy (James et al.
1999). Funds charge lower fees when they have smaller boards and a large
proportion of independent directors (Tufano and Sevick, 1997). Larger and more
mature funds as well as no load funds have lower expense ratio (Malhotra and
Mcleod, 1997). Aggressive growth funds charge higher entry and exit fees to
discourage redemption because they hold more of the smaller, less liquid stocks
(Chordia, 1996). However, despite the basic academic advice offered to investors
to prefer low expense index funds, actively managed funds continue to be popular
(Gruber, 1996). To decrease the risk it is advised to use derivative. Bond mutual
fund uses derivatives more than equity mutual funds. Use of derivative is
negatively correlated with fund age and positively correlated with fund size
(Johnson and Yu 2004) and it is positively correlated with asset turnover (Koski
and Pontiff, 1999). Derivatives are used for trading rather than hedging (Minton et
al. 2009).
Methodology
Index formula of (P1 /P0 *100) has been followed to get the value of the invested
money. It has been adjusted with inflation by depreciation the inflated value.
Harry Markowitz (1952)
Abstract
It provides a theory about how investors should select securities for their
investment portfolio given beliefs about future performance. He claims that
rational investors consider higher expected return as good and high variability of
those returns as bad. From this simple construct, he says that the decision rule
should be to diversify among all securities, securities which give the maximum
expected returns. His rule recommends the portfolio with the highest return is not
the one with the lowest variance of returns and that there is a rate at which an
investor can increase return by increasing variance. This is the cornerstone of
portfolio theory as we know it.
His portfolio theory shows that an investor has a choice of combinations of return
and variance depending on the percentage of wealth invested in various
combinations of risky assets.
William Sharpe (1964) and John Lintner (1965)
Abstract
They show that the theory implies that the rates of return from efficient
combinations of risky assets move together perfectly (will be perfectly
correlated). This gave birth to the "Security Market Line" (SML). The difference
between the Capital Market Line (CML) and SML is the measure of risk used for
the horizontal axis. The CML uses the variance of returns, whereas the SML uses
the systematic risk termed beta. Beta 1s defined as the covariance between a
security (or portfolio of securities) and the market as a whole, divided by the
variance of the market. The market as a whole is considered the point of tangency
between the SML and the efficient frontier This is the foundation for the Capital
Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

Abstract
Mutual fund companies collect the savings of the investors and make a big
corpus of these savings and invested in a well diversified portfolio of different
companies. It is generally believed that mutual funds are able to diversify the risk.
Mutual fund industry has just four decades old in India. During this short span of
time it has made tremendous growth. So considering these points this paper is an
attempt to study the performance evaluation of selected mutual funds in terms of
risk and return relationship. For this rate of return method, Beta, Standard
Deviation has been used. Nifty has been used as a benchmark to study the
performance of mutual funds in India. The study period has been taken from 1st
January2005 to 31st December 2012.

Abstract
The study found that public-sector sponsored funds do not differ significantly
from private-sector sponsored funds in terms of mean returns%. However, there is
a significant difference between public-sector sponsored mutual funds and
private-sector sponsored mutual funds in terms of average standard deviation,
average variance and average coefficient of variation (COV).
Fama and McBeth (1973)
Abstract
They examine the return of securities, using OLS techniques and find that
the CAPM, or market model, explains returns well. They examined three testable
implications of the market model, (1) the relationship between risk and return is
linear,
(2) beta is a complete measure of risk, and (3) higher risk should be associated
with higher returns. They conclude that none of the three testable implications can
be rejected. The results are consistent with efficient markets and a sound asset
pricing model, however, the estimated intercept was somewhat higher than Rf.
Roll (1978)
Abstract
He shows there is ambiguity when performance is measured by the SML.
The difficulty is that different market indices provide different rankings.
While previous work was mathematically, theoretically, and intellectually
rigorous, the author not only defined this market portfolio but made an attempt to
estimate a covariance matrix with it. Theoretically, the market portfolio IS the
composition of all investible assets. In practice, since this is not measurable, some
proxy must be used for the true market portfolio The trouble is that even an
equally weighted and value weighted Index of the same securities can produce
conflicting performance results when used as the proxy for the market portfolio.
The ambiguity of the SML arises because a different beta can be generated for
assets and portfolios by using different indices. Therefore, beta is not an attribute
of the individual asset. Beta is a measure of the risk of an asset if included in a
portfolio of risky assets consisting of the market portfolio and a risk-less asset.
Therefore, differences in portfolio selection ability cannot be measured by the
SML criterion. If the index is ex-ante mean variance efficient, it is impossible to
discriminate between winners and losers. If the index is not ex-ante mean-
variance efficient, designating winners and losers is possible, but another index
can designate different winners and losers and there is no way to determine which
one is correct.

Abstract
In this paper the performance evaluation of Indian mutual funds is carried
out through risk-return analysis. The data used is daily closing NAVs. The source
of data is website of Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI). The study
period is 1st January 2005 to 31st
December, 2012. The results of performance measures suggest that most of the
mutual fund have given positive return during 2005 to 2012.
Sarish and Ajay Jain
Abstract
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 capital appreciation realized is shared by its unit holders in
proportion to the number of units owned by them. The term risk has a variety of
meanings in business and everyday life. At its most general level, risk is used to
describe any situation where there is
uncertainty about what outcome will occur. Life is obviously very risky. Even the
short term future is often highly uncertain. In probability and statistics, financial
management and investment management, risk is often used in more specific
sense to indicate possible variability of outcomes around some expected.
Zacharias Thomas (1997)Ph D
Thesis, ‘Performance effectiveness of Nationalised Bank- A Case Study of
Syndicate Bank’, submitted to Kochin University (1997),
Abstract
Thesis studied the performance effectiveness of Nationalized Bank by
taking Syndicate Bank as case study in his Ph.D thesis. Thomas has examined
various aspects like growth and development of banking industry, achievements
of Syndicate Bank in relation to capital adequacy, quality of assets, Profitability,
Social Banking, Growth, Productivity, Customer Service and also made a
comparative analysis of 'the performance 34 effectiveness of Syndicate Bank in
relation to Nationalized bank. A period of ten years from 1984 to 1993-94 is taken
for the study. This study is undertaken to review and analyze the performance
effectiveness of Syndicate Bank and other Nationalized banks in India using an
Economic ManagerialEfficiency Evaluation Model (EMEE Model) developed by
researcher. Thomas in this study found that Syndicate Bank got 5th Position in
Capital adequacy and quality of assets, 15th in Profitability, 14th Position in
Social Banking, 8th in Growth, 7th in Productivity and 15th position in Customer
Service among the nationalized banks. Further, he found that five nationalized
banks showed low health performance, seven low priority performance and eleven
low efficiency performance in comparison with Syndicate Bank

Abstract
In his paper,’ financial performance of banks in India,’ in ICFAI Journal
of Bank Management No 7, he has examined that how financial management
plays a crucial role in the growth of banking. It is concerned with examining the
profitability position of the selected sixteen banks of banker index for a period of
six years (2001-06). The study reveals that the profitability position was
reasonable during the period of study when compared with the previous years.
Strong capital position and balance sheet place, Banks in better position to deal
with and absorb the economic constant over a period of time.
Subramanian and Swami
Abstract
In their paper, Comparative performance of publc sector banks in india”
Prjanan, Vol. XXII, have analyzed and compared the efficiency in six public
sector banks, four private sector and three foreign banks for the year 1996-97.
Operational efficiency is calculated in terms of total business and salary
expenditure per employee. The analysis revealed that higher per employee salary
level need not result in poor efficiency and business per employee efficiency co-
efficient was also calculated. Among the PSBs, Bank of Baroda registered the
high efficiency and operating profit per employee. Among the private sector
banks Indus Bank followed by Citibank Registered highest and second highest
operating profit per employee respectively. However, among the Nationalized
Banks there existed wide variations in efficiency.Frequent changes are order of
the day for the topics of this nature. Therefore, one should rely on latest
information. Some organizations like, RBI, IBA, SBI and ICRA have carried out
several research studies on various issues relating to banking and exclusive
banking journals/periodicals like Bank Quest, The Bankers, RBI occasional
papers, RBI bulletins and general magazines like Business Today, Business India,
Finance India, have been publishing papers on various aspects like NPAs, capital
adequacy, branch expansion, credit dispensation, deposit mobilization, service
quality, technology, performance evaluation, etc. Same studies and papers suitable
to this study are being reviewed here.

Interpretation
¸ The Risk Free Rate is 1.73.The investor should select return higher than the
risk free rate.
¸ From above it can be clearly concluded that Fixed Deposits are performing
better than mutual funds.
¸ SBI Mutual Fund return is less than risk free rate. So the investor should not
select this scheme.
¸ The maximum return is from SBI Fixed Deposits, but if we compare with
market return that is Nifty (4.32) it is less than it
The higher the risk involved in the investment, it should give higher return. But from
the above table it is clear that mutual funds have higher risk associated than fixed
deposits but from performance point of view, fixed deposits are giving higher returns
as compared to mutual funds.
¸ When Beta is negative, it’s good to invest because asset generally moves in the
opposite direction as compared to the index.
¸ From the above table it is seen that only UTI Mutual Fund has a positive Beta that
indicates that movement of the asset is generally in the same direction as, but more
than the movement of the index.
¸ CAPM states that the expected return based on expected rate of return on the market,
the risk-free rate and the beta coefficient of the stock.
¸ Here, UTI Mutual Fund having highest CAPM i.e 1.74 indicates that it’s return is
more than risk free rate and premium is added to it.
¸ Sharpe ratio should be usually be positive so it is most beneficial from investing point
of view.
¸ Here, SBI Mutual Fund has a negative Sharpe Ratio indicating that its performance is
not upto the mark or rather low

Table- 29
Interpretation
∑Thus, in this limited span of time, it has been observed that Fixed Deposits
are performing better than Mutual funds.
∑Fixed Deposits are giving better returns than Mutual funds and at the same
time the risk associated with Fixed Deposits are low as compared to Mutual
Funds.
∑Mutual Funds provide more investing options but are more risk prone.
∑Fixed Deposits offer less investing options but are having low risk.
∑Investing is concerned with higher returns at low or minimal risk which is
provided by Fixed Deposits.
Suggestions
Thus it is clear from the above conclusion that Mutual Funds provide a low rate of return
and are riskier to invest as compared to Fixed Deposits that are comparatively secure and
yield high returns.
Thus , it is better to invest in Fixed Deposits due to the following reasons:-
Safety
The fixed deposits of reputed banks and financial institutions regulated by RBI
(Reserve Bank of India) the banking regulator in India are very secure and
considered as one of the safest investment methods.
Regular Income
Fixed deposits earn fixed interest rates for their entire tenure, which is usually
compounded quarterly. So, those who want an income on a regular basis can
invest into fixed deposits and use the interest rate as their income. This makes a
fixed deposit very popular way of investing money for retirees.
Saves tax
With the directives of the income tax department stating that investment in fixed
deposits up to a maximum of Rs.100,000 for 5 years are eligible for tax
deductions under section 80 C of income tax act, fixed deposits have again
become popular. Fixed Deposits save tax and give high returns on invested
money.
¸Guaranteed return.-The only reason why our parents and many in our
generation also have this single concept of investment is because of its safety
features.
¸Easy to raise a loan against your FD- One can borrow up to 90 per cent of the
FDs amount.
¸ Flexible maturity date, it is for this features that you can invest for a time
frames that is as less as 6 months to as long as 10 years or even more.
