TER, spread et coûts cachés
Les coûts sont l'ennemi silencieux du long terme : de petits écarts s'accumulent.
Points clés
- TER faible ne suffit pas
- Spread et frais pèsent
- Comparer l'ensemble
- Réduire les coûts est un gain certain
Visible and invisible costs
TER is the annual fund cost, but it is not the only one.
Bid-ask spread, broker commissions and operational taxes all affect the final result.
Why costs matter so much
Over long periods, costs compound just like returns.
A small annual difference can become huge after ten or twenty years.
Quick checklist
Compare two similar instruments by index, TER and liquidity.
Ask whether you are paying for extra complexity without receiving a concrete benefit.
