### Why does GCPB cost more than a fund like VOO?

GCPB is a passive index fund (current expense ratio 0.40%). Differences from broad-market ETFs like VOO usually come from index licensing fees, asset class (bond funds typically run cheaper than equity), or fund scale (smaller funds spread fixed operating costs across less AUM).
