ETF management fee |
Each ETF provider charges a management fee for providing the ETF to investors. The fee is applied to your investment per year and varies depending on the ETF. It’s not an out-of-pocket fee. Rather, it’s deducted from the ETF’s unit price. The fee is shown when you browse the investments. The fee is charged by the ETF provider, not by CommSec. |
