  • Transamerica Announces Fee Reductions on 26 Fund Share Classes

    September 2, 2020 by Transamerica

    DENVERAug. 31, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Transamerica today announced management fee reductions on 26 share classes for mutual funds and variable annuity funds. Contingent upon share class, these reductions total 259 basis points annually and range from as much as 20 to two basis points per share class. The cumulative impact for 26 share classes is on approximately $4.98 billion in combined assets as of June 30, 2020. Charts listing the reductions by share class and date are shown below.

    These fee reductions are part of Transamerica’s ongoing commitment to seek maximum value for investors. This action is the second set of management fee reductions this year for Transamerica mutual funds and variable annuity funds. While the company’s commitment to reassess fees is ongoing, this action is timely. It allows investors to help build additional financial solutions during some of the market’s most turbulent times. This fee reduction is another example of how Transamerica continues to look for ways to enhance value to investors.

    “We’re pleased to offer these lower fee structures as they allow investors to enhance their long-term investment goals,” said Tom Wald, Chief Investment Officer for Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. “By putting more of their money to work, these fee reductions can help fund shareholders better plan for the future.”

    Transamerica Asset Management, Inc., which oversees the sub-advisers on all of Transamerica’s funds, believes no single investment firm is the best at managing every asset class. It takes a diversified approach that applies the portfolio management experience of numerous and varied asset managers throughout the industry to give investors a full range of strategies. As of June 30, 2020, Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. maintained $77 billion in net assets under management.

    “Combining industry-leading portfolio management with lower fund fees is a core value proposition we look to provide,” Mr. Wald noted.
