FYI: Are exchange-traded funds without fees always the best choice? Before saying “yes”, investors and financial advisors alike should be aware of the total cost of fund ownership.
The ongoing fee war between ETF providers has been celebrated in media circles as a financial windfall for retail investors. Compared to actively managed mutual funds, the expense ratios on ETFs in similar investment categories have always been low. And now with the advent of so-called zero-fee ETFs, annual investment costs are even lower.
