You will be charged an ongoing quarterly fee based on the value of the investments in your account. Our Investment Management service fee schedule ranges from 0.80% to 1.35% depending on the value of the investments in your account. The more assets you have in your advisory account, the more you will pay us. We therefore have an incentive to increase the assets in your advisory account in order to increase our fees. The amount you pay will depend, for example, on the services you receive and the amount of assets in your account. Our firm’s fees will be automatically deducted from your advisory account, which will reduce the value of your advisory account.
The broker-dealer that holds your assets may charge you a transaction fee depending on the security type when we buy or sell an investment for you. The broker-dealer’s transaction fees are in addition to our firm’s fees for our Investment Management service.
You may also pay charges imposed by the broker-dealer holding your accounts for certain investments and maintaining your account. Some investments, such as mutual funds, index funds, and exchange traded funds charge additional fees that will reduce the value of your investments over time.
You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce any amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.
