What Is a Fund of Funds? Structure, Advantages, and Fee Risks
What Is a Fund of Funds?
A Fund of Funds (FoF) pools your money and invests it across a portfolio of other funds—mutual funds, hedge funds, private equity, or venture capital. Instead of picking individual stocks or bonds, you buy into a professionally managed basket of funds.
That sounds convenient, and it is. But just like any other asset class, FoFs have their own share of drawbacks.
The Big Risk Most Investors Miss
One of the key drawbacks of Fund of funds is that investors are charged fees at two levels:
· Management fees at the FoF level
· Fees from the underlying funds
This "fee-on-fee" structure can quietly erode returns over time. And that's just one of several risks investors need to be aware of.
Why This Matters Now
With the constant influx of new FoF models entering the market, timing couldn’t be more critical for Investors to understand deeper the advantages and disadvantages of investing in a FoF. Investors need to know the right questions to ask before committing capital to determine if investing in a FoF is right for their portfolio.
