Laxman Pai, Opalesque Asia: The highest average basis point fees went to hedge fund-of-funds (107 bps) and private real assets (83 bps), according to the 2023 Investment Management Fee Study by Callan.

The study reflects trends on 2022 fees representing $609 billion in assets under management (AUM) and $1.5 billion in total fees paid.
