Fees are calculated as a percentage of assets under management. Accounts are charged in advance or arrears for a three-month period based on account balances. The annual advisory fee will not exceed 2.5% of the managed account value, and the negotiated rate is identified in the investment advisory agreement. The annual percentage rate is negotiable based on several factors, including the services offered, the complexity of the services, the total amount of assets involved in the household, and the relationship with the advisor. Clients may also be charged a commission and/or service fee for trades executed in their account, which is also negotiable.
