Fidelity Trims Fees on 3 Bond ETFs

Fidelity lowered the expense ratios on its three actively managed fixed income exchange-traded funds. The new fees went into effect April 1, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Fidelity&#39;s bond ETFs, all of which launched in 2014, are the the Fidelity Corporate Bond ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/FCOR#NYSE">FCOR</a>), Fidelity Limited Term Bond ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/FLTB#NYSE">FLTB</a>) and Fidelity Total Bond ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/FBND#NYSE">FBND</a>). The expense ratios on all three ETFs are now 0.36 percent per year, or $36 on a $10,000 investment, down from 0.45 percent.
FBND, <a href="https://screener.fidelity.com/ftgw/etf/goto/snapshot/snapshot.jhtml?symbols=FBND">which had $373.4 million</a> in assets under management as of March 29, is the largest of Fidelity&#39;s actively managed bonds ETFs. That ETF looks to beat the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index. FBND holds 725 bonds and has a 30-day SEC yield of 3.10 percent.
<h3>
	The Other ETFs</h3>

Nearly 66 percent of the ETF&#39;s holdings are rated investment-grade while 25.69 percent are rated AAA, <a href="https://screener.fidelity.com/ftgw/etf/goto/snapshot/snapshot.jhtml?symbols=FLTB">according to issuer data</a>.

<h3>
	Fee Friendly</h3>
Fidelity is no stranger to low-fee ETFs. Each of the issuer&#39;s 11 sector ETFs, including popular funds such as the Fidelity MSCI Information Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/FTEC#NYSE">FTEC</a>) and the Fidelity MSCI Health Care ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/FHLC#NYSE">FHLC</a>), charge just 0.084 percent per year.
