Financial advice website Fool.co.uk has
advised those looking for greater
dividends on their
investments to look into the new
tracker range from Vanguard.
The
investment funds are passively-managed which means that any
fees which usually go to the manager are passed on to the
customers.
Fool.co.uk explained that a £100-a-month investment over 25 years
returning nine per cent through an actively managed fund would give
dividends of £98,200, while a passively-managed option would
provide £103,590.
David Kuo, director of the website, said: Given that over 70
per cent of actively-managed funds fail to beat the market, most
investors are better off
investing through
trackers .
The
Investment Management Association recently said that confidence
in those with
money in
stocks and shares is rising.
Its GB Investor Confidence Index rose to positive figures in the
last month, up to 106, and this figure is 35 points higher than it
was in November 2008.
