Fund of Funds
A mutual fund that invests in other mutual funds.

Notes:
For example, an investor would select a general risk profile and the fund-of-funds manager would pick underlying investments from a range of products managed by external managers. The big downside is you are paying management fees twice.

This method is sometimes known as "multi-management."

Fund of funds

fund of funds
An open-end investment company that invests only in the shares of other open-end investment companies. This type of mutual fund was popular during the 1960s but subsequently fell into disfavor with investors. Many analysts consider it more of a gimmick than a useful investment vehicle.
