sales load
See load.

sales Load
In mutual funds, a commission that pays the person(s) who sold the investor shares in the fund. There are three types of sales load. A front-end load means that the shareholder pays the fee when buying into the fund, while a back-end load means that he/she pays when selling his/her shares. An investor with a level-load fund pays periodically throughout his/her time as a shareholder. Studies have shown that load funds perform neither better nor worse than no-load funds. A sales load is perhaps more commonly simply known as a load.
