Performance fees are typically associated with hedge funds and absolute return funds, but some managers do tend to employ them on their more traditional investment products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The average annualised return from global, Japan, North America, UK all companies, and UK equity income funds with performance fees failed to keep pace with their peers. The biggest difference in performance was Japan. Funds with performance-related fees delivered an average annual return of just 0.34% compared to 2.81% for all 66 Japanese funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the story was different in Asia Pacific, excluding Japan, and mainland Europe. Funds in Asia Pacific with a performance fee delivered an average annualised return of 4.37% compared to a sector average of 3.22%, while European funds with a performance fee returned an average of 6.37% against 5.96% for the overall market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Table 1: Average annualised returns over five years from long-only funds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<table style=\"width: 100%\" class=\"wp-block-table m-0 w-100\" border=\"0\">  <tbody>  <tr>  <td class=\"text-align-right\" nowrap=\"nowrap\">&nbsp;<\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td>    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <\/tbody>  <\/table>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Source: Datastream<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1880\" height=\"1201\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2023\/10\/graph-average-annualised-returns.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2023\/10\/graph-average-annualised-returns.png 1880w, https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2023\/10\/graph-average-annualised-returns.png?resize=300,192 300w, https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2023\/10\/graph-average-annualised-returns.png?resize=768,491 768w, https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2023\/10\/graph-average-annualised-returns.png?resize=1024,654 1024w, https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2023\/10\/graph-average-annualised-returns.png?resize=1536,981 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1880px) 100vw, 1880px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rob Burgeman, senior investment manager at RBC Brewin Dolphin, said:<\/strong> \u201cA bit like with active management, there are certain regions where it is worthwhile considering funds with a performance fee and others where it is not. In markets like North America it is notoriously difficult to consistently outperform the benchmark indices, which is one of the reasons why there are so few bothering to attach a fee and passives have grown in popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt also underlines why it\u2019s so important to understand what you\u2019re paying for with a performance fee. There absolutely should be a high watermark \u2013 in other words, the fund\u2019s returns must meet its performance threshold over a set period of time, so any underperformance must be earned back first before any performance fee is charged -\u2013 or it is simply not worthwhile. A good example is Pershing Square, which comes with a 10% performance fee, but it has delivered you a return of more than 100% over five years, which is a lot more than a comparable passive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe key question is, does the fund offer something different? It should really only be considered where there are specific strategies or the fund offers exposure to specialist areas. In those instances, it might even be a good thing and align managers\u2019 and investors\u2019 interests. The other side of the coin is that it may also encourage managers to take excessive risk if the right checks and balances are not in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEither way, it\u2019s important to not become too fixated on costs. If you reject anything with an above average cost attached to it, you might be giving up an opportunity for significantly higher gains. The trick is to not be frightened by high charges, but don\u2019t be ignorant of them either \u2013 a professional adviser will be able to guide you through what you will actually pay.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Funds and trusts with a performance fee worth a look<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Odyssean Investment Trust \u2013 Rob said: <\/strong>\u201cOdyssean\u2019s approach is quite different to what you get elsewhere, owing in part to its managers\u2019 backgrounds in private equity. The trust holds a relatively concentrated portfolio of stocks that are bought at what the managers feel is a cheap price and then sold for more at a later date. The Odyssean team takes all its performance fees in shares, giving them significant skin in the game and aligning their own interests with other shareholders\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pershing Square \u2013 Rob said: <\/strong>\u201cPershing Square is constantly mentioned for its charging structure, which on the face of it looks expensive. But, in the last five years it has delivered annualised returns of 22.6% in sterling terms after costs, around double the historic annualised average for the S&amp;P 500<sup><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brewin.co.uk\/group\/\">1<\/a><\/sup>. On its current discount to net asset value (NAV), you are paying 64p for \u00a31 of assets \u2013 a -36% discount. It looks a compelling proposition, even if you are paying for performance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Five-year discrete performance:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<table style=\"width: 100%\" class=\"wp-block-table m-0 w-100\" border=\"0\">  <tbody>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">&nbsp;<\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <tr>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <td nowrap=\"nowrap\">    <\/td>  <\/tr>  <\/tbody>  <\/table>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Source: Bloomberg<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Rob Burgeman and his fellow investment managers at RBC Brewin Dolphin put together bespoke investment portfolios for clients based on their long-term objectives and their attitude to risk.
