Low-Cost Funds With the Best Returns

Mutual fund fees can eliminate thousands of dollars of your clients' returns over the years. Indeed, index funds and ETFs have used their low costs as a major part of their marketing for years.

We asked Morningstar to sort through its data to find the actively managed funds that have expense ratios less than 50 basis points, and then rank that list by three-year annualized returns. Scroll through to see the top 20 from that list or click here to view the one page version.
