MER is the annual management fee only and excludes brokerage and buy/sell spreads. Coverage varies between funds: some exclude a major market (for example ex-US funds like VEU, or ex-Australia funds), so a lower fee does not mean broader exposure. Check each fund's geographic scope on its detail page. Compare any two side by side on the compare tool.
