Illustration of part of a typical “price page” as published in the press or on the web. Note that, by convention, prices of unit trusts are quoted in
cents to two decimal places. A price of 226.81 in the newspaper is R2.26 and 81/100 of a cent. The number of units held is typically also shown
on the investor’s statement to several decimal places.
It is sometimes argued that a kickback is not really a “hidden cost” and doesn’t affect the investor
at all. This argument contends that the portion of the manager’s fee being paid to the adviser or LISP
was part of the disclosed fees to begin with and would have been retained by the manager had it not
been paid over to the adviser or LISP. The investor, therefore, is no worse off than had the kickback
not been paid – the amount represented to the investor as available for investment (after fees) has
not changed.
While this is true, kickbacks do distort the investor’s perception of the amount that may have been
available for investment if all commissions and rebates were excluded (for example, by choosing
a competing product). Furthermore, kickbacks potentially distort the principle of negotiated fees
agreed by client and adviser: the client may not have agreed to the disclosed fee had he or she
known about the kickback.
