Cdns pay highest mutual fund mgmt fees in the world

A lot has changed over the last few months, but one thing remains consistent. Canadians continue to pay the highest mutual fund management fees in the world, even though most funds fail to beat the market index. Management expenses chew up abut one quarter of the historical return of equities. This gives you significantly less return for the risk you are taking. Whether you feel optimistic, or discouraged, by the market, you still need to recognize that long term, you should consider your options beyond mutual funds.
