Fee Estimator
You'll pay an annual advisory fee based on the value of your assets under management. For example, the fee is 1.25% on the first $5 million. Fees are deducted quarterly in advance. A separate fee may be charged on "held away" assets, generally 1.25%. Clients also incur fund management fees and other embedded costs. An annual administrative fee of up to 0.07% is charged to cover custodial fees. DS may negotiate a lower fee based on certain criteria.
