I am looking to add international exposure to my portfolio, and I have come down to looking at the Schwab International Index Fund® (SWISX) and the Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund Admiral Shares (VTIAX).
I imagine they have largely the same holdings, and they have largely had similar returns in that time. The main difference I see is their expense ratios.
While I know this kind of aspect changes at the whim of a broker (although the recent trend of lowering fees has been to our benefit), there is a bit of difference in the two options.
SWISX | VTIAX |
---|---|
0.06% | 0.11% |
With a current difference of almost twice the exp. ratio of Schwab, is Vanguard's fund worth the investment?
