A fund of funds might charge annual management fees of 0.5% to 1% to invest in funds that charge another 1% annual management fee. So, the FOF investor in sum is paying up to 2%.
Mutual fund fees generally fall into two categories. Both categories, “shareholder fees” and “annual fund operating expenses,” are disclosed in the fee table in the front of a fund's prospectus. Some funds charge a commission to be paid to brokers when you buy or sell your shares.
The charges that you pay are used to cover the costs of running the fund, including our charge for managing the fund, in addition to the costs of distributing it. The value of your investment will reflect these charges and will be lower as a result. Charges vary from fund to fund and between share classes.
In order to keep the cost of a mutual fund down, investors should try to avoid any fund that has a load associated with them. That means the fund is paying a commission to whoever is selling their fund for them.
Management fees, whether paid as a mutual fund expense ratio or a fee paid to a financial advisor, typically range from 0.01% to over 2%. Generally, the range in fee amount is due to management strategy.
