VAGF has a TER of 0.08% a year, taken daily from the fund's value. With €10,000 invested that is about €8 a year. Your broker or bank may add dealing or custody fees.

Can VAGF be switched without paying tax?

No. ETFs are excluded from the tax-free switching regime, so to change product you must sell and pay tax on the gain. If you want to be able to switch, look for an index mutual fund on the same index.

Does VAGF pay dividends?

No. It is accumulating: dividends are reinvested inside the fund and you pay no tax on them until you sell.
