I did not discuss the HSBC fund in great detail here and i probably should have, I am sorry for this! It is an index fund and the brokers I use are primary ETF only. In my experience, the fee savings on this funds is offset by other fees charged by platforms that provide the fund. However, below is a sheet I have compiled. It goes through some of the major brokers and their fund options in a bit more detail, in case you are considering options outside of those I have listed in my description and which I personally use. handy cheat sheet together: financialinterest.com/index-fund-cheat-sheet/ It has an overview of leading brokers, their fees, their most popular funds, a glossary to simplify complicated jargon, and more!

Great video, Damian! I completely agree with your approach to investing in passive, low-fee global index funds. It's all about keeping things simple and cost-effective. Fees can eat away at our returns over time, so I appreciate your diligence in finding the most cost-efficient options. Thanks for sharing your insights!

Re Vanguard fees, I believe the Vanguard US parent company is a mutual co, owned by and for the benefit of their US investors. Charging higher fees in their non US jurisdictions (UK & AUS) enables them to keep the US fees artificially low 😢

@LEWIS1992 8 месяцев назад

Great video! It's worth remembering that fees can change, so I don't think it's worth the faff of moving everything to a new platform unless the fees are SIGNIFICANTLY different. Gonna stick with Vanguard for now.

@pistopitpit 6 месяцев назад

If customers stick with Vanguard, then the fees on that platform are unlikely to change.

@festerarl6653 8 месяцев назад

Good reminder for me. I'm moving more to passive with global OEIC's - V/g and HSBC - on a zero cost platform. I am keeping a small percentage in active funds but that suits my personality. KISS springs to mind. Keep it simple stupid!

@jakkuwolfinsomnia8058 8 месяцев назад

My take on it is like this: Low risk (safety orientated) => index funds (exposed to all companies worldwide) Moderate-High risk (return orientated) => Stocks/Shares (willing to take the risk for the potential for higher returns) Keeping it simple while having some structure to my approach. That’s what makes sense to me at least. It doesn’t matter if an investment brings back a 10% return if it costs you 1-2% in fees

@IAMMARTICUS1470 5 месяцев назад

I would probably add that index funds aren't completely low risk, as the stock market does fluctuate a lot. I'd probably have them as medium risk, with low risk being bonds/gilts, possibly precious metals or just plain old savings accounts now that interest rates are higher.

@mevishmushtaq-ahmed9130 Месяц назад

I'm new to the channel, work in finance, and love hearing different opinions. While I agree with you on the passive v active debate. I don't think this is too prevalent on smaller cap funds. (AIM listed UK stocks.) There is a clear track record of active (multiple funds) being better than passive...However, I always think passive is better than active majority of the time.

Aren't there some higher taxes on all overseas funds as opposed to UK funds since you are a UK resident. Is it not better to find the UK index that is closest performing to a global index and invest in that in order to save on taxes?

@halamrose3372 3 месяца назад

I've recently discovered you Danien and value your content. The Investco ETF uses sampling rather than buying all the stocks in the index. What are your thoughts on this strategy? I apologise if this question has been asked, it seems hard to search comments on a video.

@vinylwarmth 6 месяцев назад

Why do you use an app to buy your funds and not in a Vanguard Stocks & Shares ISA directly?

@user-md6ec7wp4m 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the heads up! Always good to review and check your investments are competitive. I think the differences between funds, as you mention, within the same category/type is minimal, they tend to have similar performance (they are doing the same thing). Looking for the "perfect" fund/etf etc is just not that feasible and wastes a lot of time. The most important thing for me is to make a decision and execute, so you start/keep investing. I think the 85% rule works well here and is helping me to make decisions and not procrastinate in the spreadsheets.

@davidriley2784 8 месяцев назад

what's the 85% rule?

@LEARjsy 4 месяца назад

I relate to your comments a lot. Too much time spent reading, researching, analysing trying to 'get it right / not make a mistake', when I should just not try to overcomplicate things. Looking presently at stripping things back - making a sensible decision based on a few good all-round global equity funds and then sitting back and doing nothing other than an occasional review!

@FinancialThing 7 месяцев назад

Great video Damien. Lower fees are always better. The only downside to the Global Tracker is my Fidelity Global tracker has under-performed my Fidelity US tracker by 14% over the last 4 years. They both have very low fees (Global 0.12% and US 0.07%).

@andrewtweedy3150 8 месяцев назад

Another gr8 video damien as usual :) I'm a big fan of VWRL/VRWP but i was leaning toward the invesco etf for the 0.07% saving. I was also looking into VHVG/VFEG @ 90/10% which works out at 0.13% for pretty much the same regional allocations as VWRP. The invesco has approx 3% more allocated to US for an extra .02% against using the 90/10 split so for some that might be worth it. You can go on forever though! splitting down by region to shave off that extra .0000000001% :)

@jonathanbates154 2 месяца назад

Can you suggest where to look for world index funds available to the Canadian Market?

@AndrewGill73 5 месяцев назад

OK, just be careful of the tracking errors. Sometimes a ETF with a low fee is because their sampling methodology/technology is inferior resulting in significant underperformance to the index it's designed to track. Importantly Invesco FWRG has 799 holdings whereas Vanguard VWRP holds 3,633 holdings. So this explains why the fee is lower - it's the sampling methodology. Time will tell.

@andrewheron2399 8 месяцев назад

Are some of these USD base funds cheaper because they loan stock?

@Jose_Lima 6 месяцев назад

[Currency] You might want to consider investing in the original fund's currency because it normally has lower total expense ratio and for what I could backtest, the Performance difference comparing to local currency versions of the same fund is bigger than the exchange rate in the long run...

There is actually an EVEN more inclusive index than the global allcap. It's called the 'ftse global total cap'. This also includes micro-cap stocks! Would be interesting if a fund came out that somehow included these...would it be worth it?

@wololo4761 8 месяцев назад

Probably not. The simple reason being that any individual microcap stock would likely have such a small impact on the fund total value that it would have negligible effect.
