A front-end sales load, also called a front-end load or front-end sales charge, is an upfront fee investors pay when they buy mutual fund shares. Funds typically use these fees to compensate brokers who sell the fund’s shares. A front-end sales load is deducted from the purchase and reduces the amount available to buy fund shares.
