moreMy article tries to analyse the repeated phenomenon of "star fund manager" failures in the Indian mutual fund industry via the route of connecting this phenomenon to a specific episode in the "Etihaas" epic of Mahabharata. The idea is to give a broad perspective to the issue on hand by using a specific instance in the powerful epic of Mahabharata.
This connection should help mutual fund investors to actively avoid chasing "star fund managers" & rather concentrate on quantitative parameters such as "worst drawdown/maximum drawdown" etc & qualitative parameters such as robust investment processes, investment philosophy etc of the concerned mutual fund company.
