Rolling returns · consistency

Not one start date — every start date.

A headline CAGR depends on when it starts. Rolling windows take every week since 2015 as a start and show the whole spread of outcomes an investor actually got.

What is on file: the plan gap

Same scheme, two plans. The Direct plan carries no distributor commission, so its NAV grows faster by roughly the commission each year. From the two NAV series: +1.26% a year over 3.01 years (15 Sept 2023 → 17 Sept 2026): Direct +16.56% vs Regular +15.30%.
