Yup understood the management fee is different.
This is only specifically WRAP FEE that they are talking about. I did counter them using the same statement.
I belief that agent is referring to the wrap account that IFAST offers through financial planners. Well, strictly speaking it's only comparing apple to apple when you compare Public Mutual agent to financial planners that sell funds from asset management companies other than Pub Mut. FSM is another ball game altogether, you gotta put through all the transactions yourself and decide on what funds to get on your own.This is only specifically WRAP FEE that they are talking about.

As to whether or not 1.5% p.a. wrap fee is worth it, it depends on how you buy & sell your funds. If you trade it like share market, the wrap fee may work out to be cheaper than upfront sales charge. Especially with Pub Mut style of switching penalty within 90 days. In FSM, you can even get 0 switching charge if you are willing to have longer lag time.

I sometimes wish fsm would have installed their own irr calculation instead of us having to go through the wonky excel sheets.
I don't think the excel sheets are wonky, I'm grateful there are excel experts who are willing to spend time to prepare them and generously share with us. But some forumers did rightly point out that sometimes it's hard to use other ppl's stuffs and may be easier if you just prepare your own excel sheet which meet your own objective instead
