Has anybody invested in the new offerings from Rabobank and Blackrock?
They are offering a variety index funds with .75% entry and .75% exit fees and a mgmnt fee of .45% annually. Signed up myself for a small regular investor plan.

I`m no expert but to me it sounds a bit expensive the .45% Anuall mgmt fee for essentially tracking an index without real purchases.

This for example (I cannot add link) is much lower.

Beware of US tax implications if going at it yourself.

I just compared a few of them to equivalent ETFs and in all cases the total costs were higher for the funds as opposed to the ETS....
