Each Forsyth Barr Fund invests into an underlying fund, which comes with a fee charged by the fund manager. Not by Tempo. We estimate these fees will be between 0.10% and 0.75%.

For all types of investors

Tempo suits any type of investor no matter how you choose to invest. It doesn’t matter if you’re new to investing, or well-seasoned. There's no minimum amount you need to invest, or transaction fees applied to your contributions.

You can withdraw your money whenever you like and won’t be charged for it. Even though you’re not locked in, we don’t recommend using Tempo like a bank account. Generally the longer you invest, the more opportunity your investments have to grow (or recover from dips).

Buy and sell spreads

At times of higher than usual market ups and downs, we may apply a buy or sell spread to the price of units in our funds. A buy spread is added when you buy units and a sell spread is deducted when you redeem them as a result of a withdrawal or switch. These spreads are used to cover higher than usual transaction costs that can arise in certain circumstances from an investor’s purchase, withdrawal or switch. They aren't a fee paid to Tempo or a fund manager.

If we consider market conditions are normal, generally, there won't be any buy or sell spreads. We'll publish any buy or sell spreads here, if they happen. You can find more information buy and sell spreads in the Product Disclosure Statement.
