Underlying Fund Expenses
Vanguard and Dimensional charge an Underlying Fund Expense for each underlying fund.
Depending on which investment option your client selects for his or her account, the fund expenses range from:
| Options | Fee Range |
|---|---|
| Enrollment Date Investment Options | 0.031 percent to 0.045 percent |
| Static Investment Options | 0.000 percent to 0.112 percent |
| Customized Investment Options | 0.000 percent to 0.353 percent |
The Underlying Fund Expenses do not appear on your clients’ quarterly statements because Vanguard and Dimensional deduct them from the applicable underlying fund. The performance and market values of an account containing Vanguard or Dimensional include the deduction of any fund expenses.
