FEE SCHEDULE

What is the difference between fee-only financial advisors and full-commission brokers?
Independent, fee-only financial advisors provide customized advisory services for a flat fee, an hourly rate, or a percentage of the assets being managed. This method of compensation means the advisor gets paid for providing professional advice on reaching your goals, not for an activity in your account. Full-commission brokers, on the other hand charge commissions or sales fees based on trading activity or product sales. Financial plans and investment recommendations from full-commission brokers are often product driven, raising conflict of interest issues which is why 90% of our clients are fee-based.
