Fees, Costs, Conflicts and Standard of Conduct

What fees will I pay?

Our advisory fees for Investment Management are asset based. We charge an annual fee between 1.00% and 1.95% on a quarterly basis, payable in advance, based on the account value at the prior quarter end. Investors in the Funds are charged a 1% annual management fee and an incentive fee of 20%. The more assets there are in your advisory account, the more you will pay in fees; thus, the firm may have an incentive to encourage you to increase the assets in your account.

Clients may incur charges from Financial Institution(s) and other third parties such as brokerage commissions, custody fees, exchange fees, SEC fees, mutual fund fees, exchange traded fund fees, wire transfer and electronic fund processing fees. 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 make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying. For additional information, please see our Form ADV Part 2A, Item 5

What are your legal obligations to me when acting as my investment adviser?

When we act as your investment adviser, we are required to act in your best interest and not put our interests ahead of yours. At the same time, the way we are compensated creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the investment advice we provide you.

How else does your firm make money and what conflicts of interest do you have?

We are affiliated with Austerra Stable Growth Fund, LP and Austerra Stable Income Fund, LP. We receive compensation based on the performance of these Funds.

How do your financial professionals make money?

We are compensated based upon a percentage of the assets under management. In addition, the Austerra Funds pay an incentive fee based on positive performance.

Frequently Asked Fee Questions:

  • Help me understand how these fees and costs might affect my investments. If I give you $1,000,000 to invest, how much will go to fees and costs, and how much will be invested for me?
  • How might your conflicts of interest affect me, and how will you address them?
