Do exchange traded funds have management fees?


Do exchange traded funds have management fees?

yes, but they are often smaller than mutual funds. If you have a specific etf you're looking at go to finance.yahoo.com, type in the ticker, and click profile on the left side of the screen.

SPY, the S&P 500 tracker, for example has an expense ratio of .08%:

I agree - some fees on ETF's are lower - but you need to research it since this is not always the case. Report It

Yes they do, but those fees are generally much smaller than similar fees for Mutual funds. Usually 0.5% or less, sometimes as low as 0.1%.

Of course. Nothing is free.

Yes.
