What the fee difference costs you

Growth projections use a user-adjustable expected return, defaulting to 7%, and are applied net of each fund's MER so the fee drag is visible. They are not forecasts and deliberately do not extrapolate the trailing return: the trailing year shown below was an unusually strong one for global equities and projecting it forward would be misleading.

Every comparison, written up

Each pair below has its own page: the same table, plus the part a table cannot cover -- withholding tax, currency conversion, which account it belongs in, and whether the cheaper fund is actually the better one for you.

Every figure on these pages comes from src/_data/etfs.yml, which records an as-of date and a source for each fund so the same number cannot drift between pages.
