How Scripbox Algorithmically Selects Mutual Funds?
Scripbox uses time-tested principles, historical data, and valid assumptions about asset classes. We combine them with a rigorous process to finalize which asset classes make the most sense for specific types of objectives, considering the time needed to achieve them.
Once we select an asset class, our algorithm goes to work to select the best financial products.
The algorithm scores financial products on multiple parameters, giving relevant weights to each of the listed parameters, such as:
Track record of the product – how long has it been around?
Assets under management – how big is it – for example, the size of a mutual fund
Liquidity – how easy is it to move in or out of the product?
Consistency of performance – how much have the returns fluctuated?
The risk associated with the product – what risks impact the product?
Quality of underlying assets – we assess how risky the underlying assets are – for example, by considering bond ratings in the case of debt funds
With such a scientific and detailed approach Scripbox ensures:
