  • Two funds or ETFs are usually enough for most people: a safe fund and a riskier but higher return global stock fund. In this video, I focus on the global stock fund. There have been some changes over the last year, which led to me switching the single fund I hold in my core portfolio. So in this video, I will discuss these changes and show you what I think are some of the best funds available in 2024 for UK Investors.

  • @J-gw5sb
    @J-gw5sb Před 2 měsíci +1

    Do you have a video that outlines how you differentiate between 'safe' and 'risky' funds? Also - is this all in context of a pension/SIPP? I'm wondering if your approach differs in terms of types of funds, spread of risk between a pension/SIPP and a Stocks and Shares ISA.
    I'm currently looking at Vanguard VWRL / VWRP for S&S ISA (a global fund) - I had considered them medium risk, would you consider it risky? For my pension/SIPP I'm looking at FTSE Global All Cap Index Fund (both via Vanguard). Would you consider this one a risky fund?
    When you say 'a more risky global fund' are you saying that all global funds are risky or that you are just going to choose a global fund that happens to be higher risk?

    I have invested in a global stock VHVG. However my question is - what would you recommend the maximum in this single ETF before you invested the next amount. (Let’s say I have £250k)
    E.g should I:
    VHVG - £250k or
    VHVG - £100k
    FWRG - £100k
    Find a new one £50k to 100k

    Some ETFs cheaper than the 0.22 fee of Vanguard (acc or dist) are achieved through less stocks. For example Amundi All Country World Dist (WEBG) is 0.07, but the sampling to track the index only has 1109 stocks vs 3643 of VWRL. Same for FWRA Invesco FTSE Acc, it's 0.15 fees, but has 2039 stocks vs 3643 of VWCE of Vanguard. Can this impact the tracking in the long term?

      I see a lot of people on bogleheads UK choose the global bond index. Vanguard global bond index fund, GBP Hedged to cut out any currency fluctuation as you don't want to much volatility in your bond allocation, needs to be fairly stable ideally. Also Vanguard, ishares and some other providers do etfs that track the same index. I think it's Bloomberg Barclays global bond index. This bond index is well diversified and not as long duration as UK gilt index, so not so sensitive to interest rate movements.

My only goal is that when drawdown begins I have 5 years of income in a 'safe' fund and I will drawdown from that. Ongoing I will top it up after a good year for my equities, but not after a bad. So worst case scenario, equities can under perform for 5 years without me taking from them. For me this plan should be sustainable indefinitely.

    Bid/offer spread can be more expensive than the TER. Don't just pick a fund because it has a low ongoing charge, check the bid/offer spread! A fund with a higher AUM will generally have a lower bid/offer spread because of higher volume inflows. Stick with passive, highly liquid indexes.

The only problem with the etfs is if you want to do regular pound cost averaging, a regular amount going into your etf. Then you won't be able to buy partial shares of the etf and so each month some money not invested. So for that an index fund is better. But unfortunately Vanguard doesn't do open ended funds that track ftse dev world or ftse all world indexes. Just their ftse global all cap index fund, which I guess is OK but not ideal, or ftse dev world ex UK which is OK but a bit limited in terms of overall diversification

    @ivivivir Před 2 měsíci +2

    In Spain there is a difference between mutual funds and etfs relevant for tax purposes. You can transfer indefinitely from one mutual fund to another without taxes and fees while for etfs you have to sell and incur in tax payment as if they are stocks. In a long period and with some basic changes for adjustment, the etf option can eat a huge performance of the portofio. If you have gains of 30% for a period in your fund, lets say 100 fiat value from 75 fiat, having taxes of 21%, at the time of exiting the fund (if etf) for another fund (let's imagine full fiat amount change), you will pay about 5% of 100 to make the change possible and new fund will start with 95 fiat value. On the other hand, the new mutual fund will start compounding 100 fiat value after the change allocation from old mutual. Only after selling finally (not transfers between funds) you will pay taxes (it could be a lifetime or never).

      @UndisturbedMonk Před 2 měsíci +3

      Hedged funds are generally used to protect your currency from short term fluctuation, usually less than 5 years. Long term it's not recommended to hedge equities because of the higher annual cost. The USD has strengthened against the GBP over the long term, so if you were invested in a GBP hedged fund you would be worse off now and have paid higher charges to do so.

      ​@@coderider3022 If you invest into a GBP domiciled fund with an underlying currency of USD, then that is a unhedged fund. You're essentially placing a bet that the USD will strengthen against the GBP by investing in this type of fund. The benefits of a unhedged fund would be a lower annual cost. Long term equity positions shouldn't be hedged, it's for short term protection from currency fluctuation and you pay a premium by doing this. By investing into a fund that isn't domiciled in your home currency (USD, EURO) you're adding an extra level of complexity for no added gain. You will have to pay an FX fee each time you trade and depending on your broker this can be upwards of 1% or more. Invest into a fund that is domiciled in your home currency, the underlying currency of the fund doesn't matter but a GBP fund into EURO/USD has actually proven to be more beneficial long term as both EURO and USD have strengthened against the GBP and will probably continue to do so.

    looking at the KIID for the HSBC fund it says "The ongoing charges figure is based on last year’s expenses for the year ending 15/11/2023. Charges may vary from year to year." so i guess that's why they don't make some big announcement of a fee cut. some element of that figure is an outcome of their costs divided by AUM rather than a % amount they decide to charge holders. in the future those economies of scale they seem to have gained recently might go in reverse and the number might creep back up.

    Hi Ramin, I have to admit to now being a bit confused. Based on yours and others videos talking about 100% global index trackers for pension schemes, I've been moving away from bonds. But now you're saying that a safer fund is recommended? So does this mean moving back to some bonds in my pension scheme?

      Personal risk appetite, time horizon and aims are all that matter when investing at any given time. These guide a person to invest in a way that makes sense for them.
      If you find yourself watching videos and changing funds to create a different risk profile (say from a 60/40 to 100% equities) then it should be because you identified your risk appetite ('I accept seeing a 50% crash'), time horizon (say 10+ years) and aims match 100% equities. Ultimately you don't want to chop and change without very good reason for your own circumstances, nor end up carrying a level of risk completely unsuitable to your appetite. Both can lead to worse returns, and sometimes dramatically so.

    When you say you wouldn't buy the HSBC fund on HL as its expensive to do so - does this still apply if you have a LISA with HL? When I looked at it, as there are limited providers with LISAs, HL seemed like a reasonable choice but as far as I can see no matter if you invest in an ETF or fund you still have to pay the 0.45% management fee with HL. Am I correct or is there a better alternative for investments in a LISA? Thanks

      HL do charge the 0.45% on ETF as well but they cap the fees differently on different accounts eg on an isa the max you pay is £45 a year. So much cheaper to hold an etf on larger amounts. They do show this on the charges page in the web site but it is less obvious if you look at the charges tab of the fund page.

Or am I somehow misreading the chart? That said, it looks like much of the difference has only happened in the past month or so, so maybe the apparent difference has some time-period averaging artefact? Or is the difference maybe down to different expenses for the 2 funds. (I think the charts are of 2 funds rather than the pure indices???)
    And, while I'm here: Some more consistency over small % differences would be good to see. If you think it's worth saving 0.15% to switch platforms from Vanguard to eg Trading212 then why isn't a 0.3% difference in annual return something to headline?

    Mmm - y'all. S&P500 - and 'world' which is very heavily S&P500 - are great places *_to have had_* your money in for the last 15 years or so. Firstly: beware recency bias - and don't assume it will always be thus. Secondly: the S&P has some very well-established cycles (when looking at total return and adjusting for inflation): a more or less 15-year bull market followed by a more or less 15-year flat period. This has been happening since WW2: 1945 to 1965 = bull; 1965 to 1981 = flat; 1981 to 1999 = bull; 1999 - 2009 = flat (or worse) etc. We've now had a 15-year bull market and 'are due' a flat 15 years or so. I concede: 1) this time it 'might be different' with the Mag7 2) black swan events can mess with the cycle. But history tells us that the US is due a flat time and that EM's - with their great GDP growth yet flat stock markets - can't remain depressed indefinitely. So, I'm definitely looking towards EM's for my next 15 years or so - not a dead cert, but history telling me the odds....

      You'll find that most funds actually outperform the index and this is because the fund is either a synthetic replication fund (which I avoid), or the fund lends shares to make extra income to offset costs. The funds that lend shares are usually fully replicated because they actually hold the assets to lend. Ideally a fund that tracks the index or even outperforms would show that it's up to the task.

There's a lot more to ETFs than just the fund charge.

      I've taken a look at all of the All World ETFs available to us in the UK and your best bet would be the:
      iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF USD (Acc) with the ticker symbol: SWDA
      This ETF has the highest Assets Under Management (AUM) of any All World fund at over 57 billion euros under management and has the highest year after year volume inflows as well at around 10 billion euros in 2022 and 15 billion euros in 2023, which shows positive yearly fund growth. Some funds are very niche/specific to certain strategies and themes, which makes their year to year growth unstable and unpredictable as these funds can come and go as economy's and markets change which can trigger more selling than buying (which you don't generally want for a long term position). An all world fund doesn't have this problem as it captures everything, including those niche markets, which makes the future outlook of an all world fund steady in growth as it's seen as a buy and hold investment, not a 'buy so i can capture this specific theme while it's doing well, then sell a couple months later to gain the profit' investment like a theme specific ETF.
      It's been out since 2009 (which makes it the oldest of All Worlds funds) and has performed slightly more positive than the index it tracks every year since 2013 (which is what you want). When a fund launches, its liquidity is low, hence why it performed slightly worse than the index within its first 3 years of launch (2009 - 2012). This is normal among All World funds compared to say an S&P 500 fund, because the All World fund holds and tracks lower liquidity markets, which the S&P 500 doesn't as the top 500 US companies are all large cap, highly liquid companies. Now that it has grown in size to become the largest All World fund, so has its liquidity, allowing it to outperform the index and should continue to do so as more investors put money into it, which has been shown by its strong yearly growth.
      It's an Optimized Sampling fund, so it holds a portion of the stocks within the index and it can lend those stocks to a third party for interest in order to offset some of the fund costs, which is what helps to produce a positive tracking error. It's virtually impossible for a fund provider to buy and hold every stock in the world (Full Replication) due to low liquidity, niche markets and general high cost, so it only holds a portion of those stocks, usually the biggest companies that make up the largest portion of the index, so your Apple, NVIDIA, Tesla, Microsoft, etc.
      The fund's performance has matched SPDR's All World fund (they track the same index, so identical performance), while the Ishares fund offers an overall better fund that ticks all the boxes with a longer track record (2009 vs 2019) as well as the most AUM which = higher liquidity = lower bid/offer spreads each time you buy which will make the Ishares one cheaper long term while offering identical performance due to both funds tracking the same index.
      Hope this has helped selecting your fund.

    Hi Ramin, nice of you to have revisited the Best Index Funds for 2024. I see you have switched your 90% index fund portfolio from Vanguard FTSE Dev World ex-UK fund to the VHVG ETF - Could you please elaborate on the reasons why you decided to switch?

      @@Pensioncraft Thank you so much for your reply - Like yourself I have also placed more emphasis on the costs and I was in VEVE but decided to switch to the World ex-UK fund and noticed now the VHVG is available at least with an ETF we don't have to wait a couple days for the order to complete. Once again keep up the good work and my Best to you!

    Amundi Prime Global (PRIW) is a Solactive-indexed developed market ETF for 0.05%, so half the cost of LGGG. Yes it's an income ETF, but why pay twice as much in fees for an accumulation ETF that tracks the same(ish) index?

    Excuse my perhaps naive question. You mention buying HSBC FTSE All-World Index Fund through Hargreaves is expensive. When I look at Hargreaves they are saying the ongoing charge is 0.12% with no other initial charges or dealing charges. So, why is this any different from buying this different from buying this fund from anywhere else?

      I think it's because the platform charge for funds is 0.45% uncapped, whereas if you had the etf version on the HL platform its 0.45% but capped at £45. So anything over 10k the etf would be cheaper.

      Keep in mind that looking back over past decades the US has not always outperformed the rest of the world and many "experts" say the US is over-priced currently. Having said that, I'm mostly invested in US, just not 100%, about 65% last time I checked.

      “The average S&P 500 stock has joined the "Magnificent Seven" in overvalued territory, according to Goldman Sachs Group. While this doesn't necessarily mean the rally that began in October 2022 is nearing its end, high valuations typically lead to weaker returns over the months ahead, according to Goldman's analysis.”
      You can also look at historical P/E ratios for S&P 500 to see this.

      Just go for a global tracker, they're weighted to the US anyway so why not get the diversification over S&P
