Cost example
Worked example with €10,000 and 5 % growth per year before costs, which is an assumption and not a forecast: after 20 years EXS1 at a 0.16 % TER would come to about €25,700, and DBXD at 0.09 % to about €26,060. The gap is €110 after 10 years and €360 after 20. The TER does not cover every cost of a fund. How far an ETF actually trails its index shows up in the tracking difference, and the 2 funds also differ in distribution policy and replication method.
