FOF is actively managed: the manager selects holdings rather than tracking an index. Active funds typically charge higher expense ratios than index funds (FOF's is 0.95%) in exchange for the discretion to over- or under-weight positions. ### When was FOF launched?

On a $10,000 investment compounding at 7% gross return, a 0.95% expense ratio quietly compounds against your balance every year. The Fee Compounding Forecast card above projects the dollar drag for any holding period and assumption you pick. The typical result for a 1.0% expense ratio on a 30-year hold is roughly 25% of the final balance lost to fees. ### How does FOF charge its expense ratio? The expense ratio is deducted in tiny daily slices from FOF's net asset value (NAV). You never see a bill. The price quoted on every exchange is already net of fees. There's no "fee day" to avoid; the cost is continuous and built into the trading price. ### Why does FOF cost more than a fund like VOO? FOF is actively managed (current expense ratio 0.95%). Active funds charge more than passive index trackers in exchange for the manager's discretion to over- or under-weight positions. The Cost Verdict card above tells you whether FOF's fee is competitive for the active-management cohort. ### Are there cheaper alternatives to FOF? The Lower-Fee Alternatives card above lists closed-end funds following the same investment strategy as FOF (0.95%) but at a lower expense ratio. Each row shows the fee gap, the peer's AUM as a liquidity sanity-check, and a direct link to that fund's analysis page. Cheaper price doesn't automatically mean better.
