Active V Passive Investing: Which Is Better?

Should I buy and hold index funds for the long term or actively trade to beat the market? That’s the essential debate between active and passive investing. To get a better understanding of active and passive investing, and which one might be for you, Roshan Kanesan speaks with Ben Johnson, Director of Global ETF Research with Morningstar Research Services.

They get into fund performances, how fees factor into performance, what to watch when looking at fund facts sheets, and a look at Malaysian data on fund performance and survivorship.
