Effective February 1, 2025, the firm reduced fees on 168 share classes across 87 funds. The fee reductions are expected to save investors more than $350 million this year alone.1 Why investment costs matter Vanguard Founder John C. Bogle explained why investment costs matter this way: In investing, realize that you get what you don't pay for. Whatever future returns the markets are generous enough to deliver, few investors will succeed in capturing 100% of those returns, simply because of the high costs of investing-all those commissions, management fees, investment expenses, yes, even taxes-so pare them to the bone.2 May 1 will mark Vanguard's 50th anniversary. All along, we have emphasized the importance of limiting the cost of investing. Lower costs leave more money in investors' funds and raise their potential returns. Indeed, across the industry, lower-cost funds have historically outperformed higher-cost funds on a net-of-expenses basis.3 Source: Vanguard |
