Steffen Walter Sep 7, 2008:
Far too little context to judge, Ryan - there's still room to improve your asking style :-)
Kaiya J. Diannen Sep 7, 2008:
Do you have any other text that might shed light on where these "Abgaben" are going? The answer could be fees like the 12b-1 fees in the US, which are passed on to and paid by the investors, or it could be taxes that the fund is responsible for paying.

Fees

The SEC advises "Fees and expenses are an important consideration in selecting a mutual fund because these charges lower your returns. Many investors find it helpful to compare the fees and expenses of different mutual funds before they invest."

Depending on context "charges" might work better.

Example sentence:

Calculating Mutual Fund Fees and Expenses
