UNIT TRUST TFSAs


Unit trusts are a popular way to invest and give investors access to a wide variety
of investment strategies. Generally, unit trusts are actively managed and the
manager makes buy and sell decisions between different assets. That means they are
usually more expensive than passive funds such as exchange-traded funds. The total
expense ratios (TER) listed below show what the total cost was in the funds most
recent year. Unit trusts lend themselves to the full range of risk levels. Most funds
allow for regular contributions or once-off investments. The return figures refer to
the most recent one- and three-year return periods annualised. For N/A, the fund is
less than one or three-years old.
