Your investments will be managed in the same way by the same team at Fisher Funds

The key difference between the existing Fisher Funds TWO KiwiSaver Scheme fund and the Fisher Funds KiwiSaver Plan fund your investments are being transferred into is the fee. And the good news is that you will not be charged higher fees. In fact, five out of six funds will see a slight fee reduction when transferred to the equivalent fund in the Fisher Funds KiwiSaver Plan.

Market index returns have been used to fill in the risk indicator, as this fund has not been in operation for five years. Market index returns have been used from 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2025 and actual returns after that. As a result of those returns being used, the risk indicator may provide a less reliable indicator of the potential future volatility of the fund.

† The fees disclosed in the table are the total annual fund charges in each fund. They are a combination of the manager’s basic fee (charged directly to the funds by Fisher Funds for providing services including investment management) and the other management and administration charges (expenses incurred by the funds for services such as registry, accounting, and any underlying fund management fees and expenses). The other management and administration charges are a reasonable estimate of future costs based on (i) a combination of forecast and historic expenses charged both to the funds and the underlying funds invested into, and (ii) expected growth in the net asset value of the funds over time.

If you have agreed a fee with your adviser for providing you financial advice, this will continue unchanged as a member of Fisher Funds KiwiSaver Plan.
