- Supervisor services
- administration services
- investment management services
- registry and custody costs
- marketing
- auditing
- legal
- printing and postage.
Our fees
Our management fees are based on the fund you're invested in. They're deducted from your investment and will reduce your returns.
The Other Fees (Estimate) is an estimate of fees charged by underlying funds in which the scheme invests. These fees are reflected in the unit price of the underlying funds, and are therefore not deducted directly from your account.
