Separating "Fact" from Fiction
Recently, Saba Capital Management, L.P. ("Saba") sent a letter to shareholders that provided misleading information about Delaware Enhanced Global Dividend and Income Fund (NYSE: DEX), and DEX feels compelled to set the record straight.
Saba compares DEX's expense ratio to those of unnamed, unspecified fund products offered by Vanguard, Fidelity, iShares, among others. These open-end mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are different products than DEX, which is an actively managed closed-end fund that utilizes leverage to provide an attractive monthly distribution of 10% of NAV. Please consider whether this is an appropriate comparison.

In the letter, Saba noted that DEX's expense ratio was 2.38%. Did you know that Saba Closed-End Funds ETF (BATS: CEFS), Saba's own ETF that invests in closed-end funds, has an expense ratio of 2.55%?
According to Morningstar data, Saba's ETF is nearly 5 times higher than the average expense ratio for ETFs!
