That was hilarious. It's quite clear that Syfe is hitting back at Endowus for running that bit about sReits (Syfe is the ONLY Robo offering an sReits portfolio) in comparison to Global Reits. So Syfe now runs an article on ETFs in comparison to Unit Trusts (UTs are Endowus' primary vehicle for investment).

Before the table, they have a long para about: Understanding ETFs and unit trusts / mutual funds.
And they've raised the following points:
1) ETFs can be bought and throughout the trading day while UTs must take the end of day price.

Comment: Relevant if you're actually buying ETFs on the market, not quite relevant when you're buying ETFs through a Robo (as people do with Syfe), as you won't know the exact price you trade at anyway.

2) ETFs tend to be passively managed while UTs tend to be active. Success of the fund depends on whether or not the portfolio manager can consistently pick “winners”. 83% of all active fund managers have underperformed their benchmarks over the past 10 years.

Comment: True to a certain extent, but again irrelevant for Syfe customers, because all their portfolios (except 100% Reits+) are actively managed baskets of ETFs. So in the end, the success of an investor with Syfe depends on whether or not the portfolio manager can consistently pick “winners”. Therefore, there is no reason to expect them to do any better than active fund managers.

Point (2) in particular looks like a terrible own goal to me, so I will stop here for now.

realise why didnt syfe put in their usual mgt fees of 0.65-0.5% too??

Even if The chart / eg in the article shows calculations based on a sample $100,000 investment. In that case, Syfe's management fees is 0.4%.

oh the PLatform Fee is 0.65% management fees for Syfe and a platform fee of 0.60% for another fund platform in Singapore.

Good video. Seems like robos are not as good as expected.

I stared Endowus - one goal (using SRS) is July 21 and another goal (using cash) in Sep 21. Let me see how is progresses...

I think you are missing the point of the video - the way syfe is displaying returns is very misleading and confusing. Can you imagine clueless investors recommending friends with a small investing amount haolianing that their portfolio returns are great, when it is all from referral gains?

This is some MLM arrangement going on. They need to fix it.

Well, equity100 (and equity in general) took a nosedive yesterday and tending downwards this month, so if you have funds it could be good time to put some inside, even though for robos you don't really care much about trying to time and 'buy the dip'

My REITs today went into negative :s13: . Started around end Jan 2021 and DCA every other week. So far got strong relationship with our covid cases here, whenever lockdown or cases go up, REITs drop. Despite now still so many people crowding the malls

currently most markets are down due to contagion fear brought about by Evergrande
