More over this study also focuses on the other attributes of the selected portfolios like Beta, standard deviation and Covariance, risk profile, management fee and asset allocation of the funds. Monthly data has been collected from monthly reports managed by mutual fund managers for the year 2008-2011. The results indicate the actual performance, risk analysis and returns of the funds they also show the contribution of risky and risk free funds in a portfolio.
