Reduced Portfolio Costs

IBOSS Reduce Portfolio Costs

IBOSS is delighted to announce that from Q3 2023 the OCF will be lower across all 32 of our DFM MPS portfolios.

Following successful negotiations with multiple leading fund houses we have managed to secure reduced pricing across a range of funds, of which several are also held across our OEIC Fund Range. For context, one of the fund houses has only signed off a handful of these deals with other asset management providers during the past 2 years.

Costs, like interest, have a compounding effect over time and can have a dramatic impact on investment returns, one that’s not always obvious or transparent.

IBOSS Chief Investment Officer, Chris Metcalfe, said: “In the world we are all currently living in, the cost of almost everything seems to be going up. We are therefore delighted to be able to offer advisers and their clients lower charges, and some of the very best in terms of competitive pricing across the DFM MPS marketplace.”

Using the IBOSS Core MPS range as an example, we can now offer an OCF as low as 0.34%* in our low-risk portfolio and our high-risk portfolio has dropped from 0.65% to 0.58%*.

We expect costs to be reduced even further in Q4 once the full impact of our newly agreed terms comes into effect.

*The DFM MPS ongoing charges figure is produced using the preferred share classes, this may differ from platform to platform.
