Unlike other advisors, we charge one fee that covers both portfolio management and advice. 0.90% pays for both.*
With other advisors, you pay two fees: one for advice and one for portfolio management. You may have to read the fine print to discover exactly what you will pay. The Private Client Group is different. We charge one transparent fee—it covers both advice and the underlying investments. And, it's likely lower than what you may pay for some investments alone.
Our one-fee approach is unique in the industry. That also means we jump through a few hoops to make it happen. Because investment products have built in portfolio management costs, they are automatically charged. At the end of each quarter, you get reimbursed for the portfolio management fee with a deposit back into your account. Your net fee remains .90%.*
