In the same event, PMS AIF WORLD announced 3rd annual awards in the Alternates Industry. These were conceptualised on a thoughtful & simple format of risk adjusted returns. For these Smart Money Manager Awards, PMS AIF World collaborated with Team IIM-Ahmedabad to design a sophisticated methodology. This article and effort to explain the awards format in detail. The data used for calculations is as of 31.12.2021.

For investors, what matters is how much return is generated per unit of risk. This is because, while many products generate returns in long term, but investors seldom get benefit owing to the extreme volatile patterns of these returns where investors tend to lose confidence during bad times and do not remain invested. Hence, risk adjusted returns act as a safe parameter to conclude upon best performing funds.

131 PMSs & 37 AIFs participated in these awards. The analytics is first of its kind effort in this industry and truly is a good academic initiative towards informed investing.

Entire study involved deep diving the data of all participating PMSs across returns and risk factors and calculating annualised rolling returns, standard deviation, beta, Sharpe ratio, and information ratio. Thus, provided us lots of insights and that form basis of our knowledge driven approach to investing.

Two objectives were covered, one, to recognise the long term, medium term, as well as short term performances. And, second, to acknowledge the best newcomers and also applaud the portfolios that performed best post the pandemic.
