Are roboadvisors actually operating like an active fund manager? In StashAway's case, they charge 0.8% and buy a basket of funds for you. Technically you are investing into a basket of funds, right?

Yup, you can treat SA as a fund so you're investing in fund of funds. High fees can eat into returns so go with a platform with lower charges.

Who pays for the spread and expense ratio if you invest in robo advisors like Stashaway? I understand they charge a 0.5% management fee, are there hidden costs like the spread and expense ratio that Stashaway is not making clear to investors?

Why would one buy into a" fund" that is composed of like 5 different funds? This seems to be the case for the roboadvisor funds? Is it that theytry to have better performance than the original funds?

For cash management accounts like endowus and stashaway they mostly invest in lion global money market funds Would it be better to invest directly in lion global and save the roboinvestors mgmt fee?

Is StashAway and Syfe truly passive investing? What's passive about it when the portfolios actually seem to be actively managed?

Does Nikko Asset Management has any active funds like the Ark investments?
