Buy/sell spread

The buy/sell spread is the difference between the entry (buy) and exit (sell) prices of the fund, and is charged as a percentage of the value of the trade you’re making. The buy/sell spread helps the fund cover transaction costs involved in the fund buying or selling assets, such as brokerage fees, bank fees, and government taxes.
