Why fees are the first thing we compare

A fee gap that looks tiny on paper compounds into real money. Two examples from our guides, each based on £10,000 invested over 10 years with 8% assumed annual growth:

China · cheapest vs priciest fund

~£939

The gap between a 0.19% and a 0.74% annual fee — on funds tracking the same market.

South Korea · cheapest vs priciest fund

~£560

The gap between a 0.09% and a 0.65% annual fee. The cheapest fund is also the largest.

Illustrative figures only, assuming identical gross growth and no platform fees. Returns are not guaranteed and will vary. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.

About

Tom Halliley

UK private investor since 2018

I built this website for myself because I was tired of having to piece everything together every time I wanted to look into investing in something specific. If I wanted to know which ETFs were available for a country, or what the costs looked like on different platforms, I had to jump between fund pages, platform websites and articles just to get a clear picture.

This site started as my own research and slowly turned into a place where I could keep everything in one spot. That includes ETFs, platforms, pensions and the other things I kept needing to look up again and again.

I just want the information here to be useful and easy to understand.
