Update: Mutual Fund Portfolio Overlap Tool with SEBI Classified Stock Sectors

Published: October 16, 2024 at 6:00 am

As readers may know, five mutual fund portfolios can be compared with the Google Sheets-based freefincal mutual fund portfolio overlap tool.

Mr Sundararajan Srinivasan has updated the tool by replacing the existing (incomplete) Stock Sector listing with the standard SEBI classification.

Features

  • It allows you to compare the portfolio of five mutual funds. These can be a mix of equity, hybrid, and debt mutual funds (excluding overnight funds).
  • Suppose mf1, mf2,mf3,mf4 and mf5 are the funds chosen; we find the no of common stocks and percentage overlap in equity between mf1 and mf2; mf1 and mf3; …. mf2 vs m4 … mf4 vs mf5 (all ten combinations).
  • We can compare the sectoral distributions. For example, mf1 has 10% of pains while mf2 has 5% of banks, and mf4 has 25% of foreign equity.
  • We can compare the credit rating distribution in the case of hybrid funds and debt funds. For, e.g. mf1 has 15% of SOV bonds, mf2 has 5% of treasury bills, mf3 has 7% of AA bonds rated by CRISIL while mf4 has 9% of AA bonds rated by CARE, etc.
  • The portfolios are downloaded from Moneycontrol. The sheet is blazing fast on Google Sheets.
  • What is the price of the sheet? The sheet is free but available only to those who purchase the freefincal mutual fund (and stock) portfolio tracker on Google Sheets.
  • Please add pattu@freefincal.com to your contacts list to receive free updates and bug fixes.
  • Existing users: Please use the same original link and make a copy to use the updated sheet. Email us if you need assistance.
