Percentage Fee: PAG generally charges a fee that is a percentage of the assets to be managed. The fee is negotiable, with a maximum annual fee of 2.25%. The fee is based on the value of the investments in your account and charged quarterly in advance. A fee that is a percentage of the assets to be managed may create a disincentive for your Advisor to perform additional work for a client because that work will not increase his or her compensation. Your Advisor may have an incentive to perform less work for clients with fewer assets. Since fees increase when assets increase, your Advisor has an incentive to encourage you to increase the assets in your account.
Flat Fee: PAG may also agree to charge a fixed or flat fee for its services, charging a specific dollar amount for a specific time period. A fixed fee may create a disincentive for your Advisor to perform additional work for you because that work will not increase his or her compensation.
Hourly Fee: PAG may also agree to charge an hourly fee for all time spent working on a client’s behalf. An hourly fee may create an incentive for your Advisor to perform additional work for the client because his or her compensation will increase with any additional work.
Wrap Fee and Non-Wrap Fee: If you are in a wrap fee program, trading costs will be charged to your Advisor, so he or she will have a disincentive to perform work for you by trading in your account. If you are in a non-wrap fee program, you will pay a per-transaction charge in addition to the percentage fee.
Subscription Fee: Your Advisor may provide publications or seminars for which you may be required to pay a subscription fee.
Custodian Fees: You will be charged fees by the custodian where your account is held for services such as account maintenance, and you should review the fee schedule published by the custodian for those specific fees.
If you use the services of a portfolio manager or third party investment advisory firms, you will be charged fees depending on the terms of your agreement with them.
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 ask your Advisor for personalized information and make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.
