Figures as of 20 Jul 2026. Dividends reinvested at VIPB’s published payment dates (not the October convention). The since-launch figure starts from the ৳10 face value paid at the fund’s inception, matching the asset manager’s own convention.
Same fund. Two honest answers.
Both are right; they answer different questions. On the left, every dividend is taken as cash the way many investors actually use them, which is VIPB’s since-inception money-weighted return (XIRR). On the right, every dividend is reinvested to buy more units, the total return of the fund itself.
A ৳1 lakh investment held over since launch would be worth about ৳1.58 lakh with dividends reinvested, or ৳1.52 lakh taking every dividend as cash. Reinvesting compounds, so it ends higher; the gap is the cost of not reinvesting.
Why can both numbers be right? Seeing two different percentages for the same fund is normal, not a mistake. VIPB’s figure assumes each payout stayed in your hand (a cash-out, money-weighted XIRR). ReturnKoto? METHOD assumes every dividend went back into the fund (a reinvested, time-weighted total return). Both figures include the fund’s stock dividends and unit conversions, so nothing is left out; the difference is only whether dividends are reinvested or taken as cash, plus payout timing, how long you measure and the end date, any of which can tip either side higher. The Taken as cash toggle elsewhere on ReturnKoto? is our own time-weighted cash path for whatever period you pick; it is not the same rate as VIPB’s since-inception money-weighted XIRR on the left, even though both treat dividends as cash. VIPB has reviewed the fund data on this page, and neither figure is an error.
