The costs that don't show up in the brochure.

Three calculators built around the numbers brokers under-disclose: holding fees, FX spread, and the compounding drag of dividend withholding. Use them to see what your portfolio actually costs.

Methodology

Real inputs, not averages

Each calculator uses actual broker fee schedules, not rounded industry averages. Numbers change when brokers change — we update them.

Compounding, not one-year snapshots

A 0.15% annual custody fee looks trivial. Across 20 years on a growing portfolio it is not. Every tool shows the long view.

FX is never free

Most broker calculators ignore currency conversion. Ours treats it as a first-class cost, because for European investors it always is.
