Via HSBC expat its something like a flat fee of GBP15 (or USD equivalent) and the TER is obviously going to be much cheaper (TER for IWDA which I think tracks the same index as the HSBC global equity fund is 0.2%).Original Post Deleted
BUT you have to remember with HSBC Expat:
- Need minimum balance (got to be Premier elsewhere)
- Have to convert HKD to GBP/USD, etc
With Flexinvest:
- No trading fees
- Low barrier of entry
- Don't need to be Premier customer
- Can trade in HKD
- As fund is domiciled in Ireland, still benefit from the Irish - US tax treaty for 15% dividend witholding
