A fund manager fee conundrum

Research consistently shows a fund’s total fee burden impacts on long term returns for investors. As a general rule lower fund costs mean more left over for investors. This is certainly true of deep liquid markets (like large cap US equities) where information and skill is widely disseminated – it’s hard for one manager to repeatedly outperform over for 3-5 year periods. The bi-annual S&P Dow Jones SPIVA report on active manager (under) performance is compelling reading.
