The snail trail analysis shows that the fund had a really good start, but failed to keep up the good run. It maintained course in the underperformance quartile for a long period. 

Tracking Error

The tracking error chart shows how the fund ‘tracks’ against the index. The higher the TE, the more active the fund’s return has been, with the 2-4% range considered to be barely active, the 4-6% range considered to be reasonably active, and anything higher attributed to concentrated/focused funds. Funds with TE of less than 2% can be considered to be closet indexers.

The volatility in the TE explains the active management of the fund. The fund had a peak TE of 9.5700% during April 2021. Lately, the volatility decreased and the fund had a TE of 6.1650% by Oct-2022. The fund is highly active. 

Information Ratio

The information ratio is a measure of risk-adjusted return as its excess return per excess unit of volatility. Active funds must have an IR higher than 1, higher than 1.3 is considered ideal. 

The IR significantly dropped by Jun-2021 and started to recover by Aug-2022. By Oct-2022, IR for the fund was 0.3550 which is below the average level. The active management failed to beat the benchmark returns.
