If you want a fair comparison, do GDP vs value produced by that investment fund in a year.

I'm not suggesting its anything other than a ridiculous and meaningless thing to write, I was just saying that both GDP and AUM are measured in the same units (USD).

Apparently several people decided this fact was necessary to downvote ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No GDP is in $/time. Gross domestic product (GDP) is the monetary value of all the finished goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time period.

Though GDP is usually calculated on an annual basis, it can be calculated on a quarterly basis as well. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/g/gdp.asp

Alternatively, give AUM/GDP, i.e. the time it would take for the accumulated GDP to equal the AUM.

distance/h the per hour is implied when recording distances, however should the race not exactly record 1h the difference is not simply ignored.

Another example, look a records when the physical pools are slightly off of regulation distances for 100m/200m etc. Record keepers in no way ignore those differences.

It's obviously measured in km/h with h=1
