Predictive Power of Fees in Asia
Low-cost funds consistently outperform their expensive peers
Morningstar research repeatedly shows that fees serve as a highly reliable predictor of a fund's future success. Because fees are certain, persistent, and deducted directly from returns, they represent a hurdle for active managers. Historical data shows that higher-cost funds are much more likely to be liquidated, merged, or simply underperform their more affordable peers over time.
In this report, you'll find data-driven evidence showing how the cheapest fee quintiles consistently achieve higher success ratios across core asset classes. Get an exclusive look at how we evaluate expenses through the new Medalist Rating Price Score (MPS), helping you clearly identify whether a fund’s fee is a competitive advantage or a significant headwind.
