Description

Are your expensive active mutual funds and ETFs actually active? Or, as is too often the case, are they only pretending to be active? Do they charge a high active fee but then behave more like an index fund? If so, you are the victim of closet indexing.

Andrew Slimmon, Managing Director at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, leads the Applied Equity Advisors team and serves as Senior Portfolio Manager for all long equity strategies. He speaks with Barry Ritholtz about the best ways to avoid the funds that charge high fees but fail to provide the benefits of active management.
