What is the difference between Vests and mutual funds?
Vests are similar to mutual funds in concept since they provide portfolio exposure to equities. These are baskets of stocks and/or ETFs that reflect an idea, theme or strategy. However, unlike mutual funds, Vests are:
- Transparent & customizable (you buy the stocks into your account directly vs. buying units of the fund)
- Liquid (no lock-ins)
- More cost-effective (no % fees or exit loads)
