FYI: Are zero-fee exchange-traded funds on the horizon in the U.S.?
Between the low overhead costs possible through economies of scale, and the additional income that fund managers can generate by lending securities to short-term borrowers, the barrier could be broken in the next year or two. Even a negative-fee ETF—where the fund pays investors to invest—might be possible
