HEAD-TO-HEAD: Blackrock versus Church House
FSA compares two absolute return products: the Blackrock UK Absolute Alpha Fund and the SVS Church House Tenax Absolute Return Strategies Fund.
Fees
The Blackrock UK Absolute Alpha fund has an ongoing charges figure (OCF) of 0.92%, but levies a 20% performance fee, according to McDermott – although he is doubtful about how often the threshold is met to trigger the performance fee.
The OCF of the Church House fund is 0.84%, which is around the median for the sector.
“Both fees are competitive,” he said.
