Look-through via underlying funds.
The management fee was 0.49% a year, or about $49 for every $10,000 held. This figure is the fund's own fee; the covered-call funds it holds run their option overlays internally, so there is no separate overlay fee, though those overlays change the return and distribution profile. Trading spreads are separate from this fee. This is the management fee as published by the provider; the total expense ratio can be slightly higher once fund operating costs are added.
Mostly return of capital
