Fees for financial planning or consulting are negotiated based on complexity and scope, and can be a single fee, hourly fee, or retainer. Wealth management fees are based on a percentage of the average daily value of assets, assessed monthly in arrears. IWN charges a Program Fee in addition to the investment management fee charged by the IAR. IWN will not allow IARs to impose a total fee lower than the Firm’s Program Fee of 0.10% of assets per year or more than 2.50% of assets per year. Fees are negotiable with the IAR.
