Fees
Management fees and other expenses charged by funds are important because they have a direct impact on returns for investors.
The ongoing charges figure (OCF) for the Franklin fund is 1.86%, and the fees charged for the MFS product are higher at 1.92%. The median OCF for actively managed European equity funds available to Hong Kong retail investors is 1.91%, according to FE Fundinfo.
