Fees for underlying holdings and transaction costs
Fund fees are paid to the underlying funds in which your money is invested. Transaction costs are the costs that arises when the funds are trading in underlying instruments. Since the cost of trading varies from year to year, transaction costs are stated as an estimated amount based on the previous year’s costs. As of 2023, transaction costs includes both direct transaction costs (e.g. courtage and settlement fees) and indirect transcation costs (e.g. spread-costs). Read more here. All of these are included in your total fee and will vary depending on the composition of your portfolio.
The importance of a low fee
Over time, fees play a big part in the ultimate return. High fees that are deducted from your assets year after year eat up your capital and dampen the well-known effect of compound interest.
