== Operations == Due to Vanguard's unique business model, where it is owned by those who invest in its funds, rather than a group of shareholders, it generates income differently to other asset management companies. Most of Vanguard's mutual funds and ETFs have an expense ratio, this is an annual fee charged to investors that cover the expenses associated with running a specific fund, an example of some of these expenses are: Fund Management, Administrative Costs, and Marketing Costs. However, because of Vanguard's business model, they have some of the lowest fees in the industry. A large reason for this is because the majority of their investment funds are designed to passively track/match a particular index vs trying to actively outperform the market. A particular fund's expense ratio can be easily found on their [https://investor.vanguard.com/investment-products/mutual-funds/profile/ website]. The fund management costs for vanguard vary from 0.22% to 0.24% for Ready-made portfolios, and 0.06% to 0.80% for individual funds<ref>https://www.vanguardinvestor.co.uk/what-we-offer/fees-explained</ref>. Vanguard also charges account fees, with only one fee being charged per annum, regardless of the amount of accounts held with Vanguard. These fees cover the costs of running the online service, customer support team, and keeping investments secure. The fee is based on the overall value of all Vanguard accounts in addition to any cash held with Vanguard. These fees are 0.15% per year if Β£0 to Β£250,000 is held with Vanguard, and a max of Β£375 if over Β£250,000 is held with Vanguard.
