Hi! I just want to clarify a point regarding the fees. They will be taken proportionally, meaning the account with the largest balance will pay the largest portion of the fees.

It's a strange one. I get they're probably losing money on these low value accounts but those low value accounts will potentially become the next generation of high value accounts. So it seems like they're giving up future income for lower admin costs today. Maybe they could've waived the minimum charge for anyone making a regular direct debit payment or something. I don't know.

I've invested with Vanguard for the last 5 years. I was quite stunned to receive their email about the charge increases. It was short, blunt and gave no real explanation as to why. My income is low, but I do invest regularly and have slowly built up my holdings with Vanguard. I am though way, way, below the £32000 figure, and that £4 a month just looks like price gouging, and a PR disaster..., if that is, they are bothered about PR. I'll be looking at alternatives in very short order.

It was costing me about £0.21 a month to hold this. With this £4 fee change, within 3.6 years, I would lose all my profits made over that time (possibly more due to not having as much invested over time). Seems like they just don't want customers or hope people aren't aware of the changes. Thanks to you and Damien for pointing it out. I would never have known as I barely read those sorts of emails.

I just don't understand why they have done this - especially splitting the fees between your accounts, which seems only to harm the investor's tax efficiency without adding anything to Vanguard's profits, surely? Why not allow customers to choose which accounts their fees are taken from? I switched my SIPP from Aviva to Vanguard this year primarily because their fees were so competitive. As a company that have made low fees and accessibility for small investors their big selling points I think they've shot themselves in the foot with this. At the moment this will have quite a small financial impact on me but hmm.... will I stay with them on principle? Not sure.

It's still a percentage it's just the minimum charge is £4 a month (I suspect it will actually be £12 a quarter) So once you have sold your investments and it's sat in cash there will be no fees. You can then set up a transfer. Or alternatively just start the transfer now. You could leave a few pence in cash in your account if you plan on using Vanguard again in the future to save setting it all up again.

Well... that's a tough one, methinks. From their beginnings in the UK Vanguard was not planning on catering to people who could only afford to invest little sums of money each month, as evidenced by the fact that the minimum payment by debit card was £500 and the Direct Debit was needed to be for £100/month. My SIPP fee is currently £21/year - with the new fee this will more than double to £48/year - for a fee of over 0.30%. But I am also in the position that I could move money into Vanguard which would immediately increase the invested balance to the point that the fee stays the same. As T212 doesn't offer a SIPP yet (pushed into at least Q1/2025) and IE doesn't allow transfer-Ins yet.... Decisions, decisions

My isa and gia are with T212 and have vanguard funds in them as it's cheaper. Be careful people don't go watching this and moving pensions to another provider that charges less and performs way less.

Vanguard in the US is effectively a 'non-profit' owned by the US investors, whereas Vanguard subsidiaries in the UK, Australia etc. are 'for profit' branches that are also operating in a smaller market, so localization costs are relatively higher per investor in those markets vs the US. Hardly a surprise. ps. there is no reason why the fixed cost per account should not be paid by all investors -- the fact that it is relatively higher for a 'small investor' just means those people should use one of the many other low/no cost investment platforms while they start saving and investing. If the Vanguard base fees are too high, use a different platform. ps. Those saying "well, I'll leave because of the small monthly fixed admin fee" are doing exactly as intended -- the whole point of putting in a modest fixed monthly fee is to cull all those myriad tiny accounts that actually cost more to maintain than the % fees generate. Vanguard is not a charity, and larger Vanguard accounts have no moral obligation to accept rent-seeking behaviour by smaller investors.

I stick with Vanguard 100% - investing is long term and I prefer investing with a very reputable platform which makes profits therefore sustainable business model.

Unfortunately, that £4 a month compounded over a long period will make a huge difference the the fund final value. Especially if you are at the start of the investing journey.

@ 48 a year it would give someone with an excellent average market return of 10% over 10 years , 826£ and of course there is a fee even now so this amount is much less in reality. We can argue that is a lot but is not a lot really and having our future and really hard earned money with an excellent company like Vanguard is worth much more than that. I don’t work for Vanguard btw:-)

I'd like to transfer my small SIPP to Invest Engine but they're not yet taking transfers.
@benmckenziefilmsКүн бұрын
Same mate. Just opened the SIPP a couple weeks ago, I only have £100 in there. Now I have to go through the hassle of moving that as £4 a month fee in that is dumb

I guess I will move all my ISA investments from Vanguard to Trading 212

Bear in mind that, if any of your Vanguard holdings are in funds rather than ETFs, you won't be able to transfer them in specie, as Trading 212 doesn't offer funds.

Definitely not a nice move and they might suffer from many small investors leaving the platform.
