Investment fees and costs
Investment fees and costs are the fees and costs charged to you for managing each investment option. Australian Retirement Trust sets investment fees and costs to match expected costs. The estimated investment fees and costs are our best estimates based on recent experience and our current long-term expectations for ongoing investment costs. Investment fees and costs are deducted from the daily unit prices. For more information refer to the Super Savings guide.
Below are our current estimated investment fees and costs and transaction costs for our investment options.
1 The Investment fees and costs and Transaction costs shown above are indicative only and are based on the Investment fees and costs and Transaction costs for the year ended 30 June 2022, including several components which are estimates. The actual amount you’ll be charged in subsequent financial years will depend on the actual fees and costs incurred by the Trustee in managing the investment option.
