Benchmark Metrics

ALPS/Kotak India ESG Fund has an annualized alpha of 1.59%, beta of 0.50, and R² of 0.24 versus S&P 500 Index. Calculated based on daily prices since February 15, 2011.

  • This fund participated in 88.89% of S&P 500 Index downside but only 70.69% of its upside — more exposed to losses than it benefited from rallies.
  • Beta of 0.50 may look defensive, but with R² of 0.24 this fund is largely uncorrelated with S&P 500 Index — low beta reflects independence, not downside protection. See the Volatility section for a true picture of this fund's risk.
  • R² of 0.24 means this fund moves largely independently of S&P 500 Index — capture ratios reflect limited market correlation rather than active downside protection. Consider using a more representative benchmark.
