Fund Supermarket comparison

For all fund supermarkets we rebate 100% of our initial commission and 75% of our ongoing commission on Unit Trusts, OEICs and SICAVs.

Below is a basic comparison between the supermarkets with which we are currently registered. This is a starting point to provide a general idea, and may not cover every circumstance. The table is no substitute for the detail within the current Terms & Conditions and Key Features for each supermarket, and up-to-date information for specific funds you are interested in.

If you are interested in a supermarket not included below, please contact us.

1 - For Cofunds PEP/ISA transfers, if all commission is rebated, for many funds the initial charge is effectively reduced to zero. This also applies for some funds on Fidelity FundsNetwork.
2 - Recognised offshore fund switch charge on Fidelity FundsNetworkTM is 1% (e.g. SICAVs).

Whilst single-priced funds have a single price at which units or shares are bought and sold, dual-priced funds have a bid and offer price. The bid price is the price at which units/shares are sold, and is lower than the offer price at which you buy units/shares. The difference between the bid and offer price is the bid-offer spread. The bid-offer spread includes the initial charge for the fund. Please note that the size of the bid-offer spread can change from day to day and is bigger than the initial charge. The creation price represents the offer price, less the standard initial charge.

A dilution levy can also apply to single-priced funds under some circumstances.
