A manager may be able to generate higher returns than an OE benchmark before costs, yet after costs investors’ returns may be below the benchmark. If a fund can beat the OE benchmark on an after cost basis, we say that the fund adds value for investors, to distinguish this situation from one where the manager has investment ability, but either extracts the rents from this ability in the form of fees and expenses, or dissipates it through trading costs.
