International Tax Law: Investment Funds Taxation

By Hugo Passemard

Hugo Passemard is going to start with a topic he likes to cover around summer every year and it's a topic that maybe isn't the most exciting to talk about but it is one that directly impacts your investment returns and that's taxes. You'll often hear how ETF's tend to be more tax efficient than mutual funds but you may not fully understand why that's the case and that's what the author going to focus on here today. There are a few things that Hugo Passemard thinks every investor should be aware of as it relates to taxes and one of those areas is the tax differences between ETFs and mutual funds. If you compare the before and after tax returns of a hypothetical investor from 1926 through 2016 and there are some nuances to the data but what the author found was that large cap US stocks returned ten percent annually before tax after tax that number was only eight percent for government bonds before tax returns were five and a half percent after tax only three and a half percent which by the way that barely outpaced inflation, which was two point nine percent.
