SBI Fund Purchase Fees
Posted: Sun Sep 01, 2019 7:28 am
Update: This issue is resolved - turns out I just misread the PDF and there was nothing to worry about.
Just looking at buying some 三菱ＵＦＪ国際－ｅＭＡＸＩＳ Ｓｌｉｍ 全世界株式（オール・カントリー） on SBI and noticed that it has a 3.24% (inc tax) purchase fee. Is this competitive with others such as Rakuten? I hadn't noticed this fee before - it seems quite large to me. To quote their example, for a 1M investment, it's 32,400 yen.

There's also a 3% pre-tax sales fee when you sell it off too.
Compare this to buying a domestic ETF or stock worth 1M yen, which only costs 498 yen.
This seems to be a significant cost involved with choosing funds over stocks that I'd not noticed before.
edit: It seems I misread the PDF, and it's just using the 3.24% as an example calculation, but in most cases the rate is 0%. Phew.
When you actually click through to the purchase screen, under 買付手数料 it says なし。
