Item 5: Fees and Compensation
A. Fee Schedule
Asset-Based Fees for Portfolio Management
Total Assets Under Management Annual Fee
$0 - $2,000,000 1.25%
Above $2,000,000 1.00%
The final fee schedule is attached as Exhibit II of the Investment Advisory
Contract. Clients may terminate the agreement without penalty for a full refund
of APWC's fees within five business days of signing the Investment Advisory
Contract. Thereafter, clients may terminate the Investment Advisory Contract
immediately upon written notice.
APWC uses the value of the account as of the last business day of the prior billing
period, after taking into account deposits and withdrawals, for purposes of
determining the market value of the assets upon which the advisory fee is
based.
Financial Planning Fees
Because the cost to a Client for the financial planning services provided by APWC
is included in the asset-based fees that a Client pays, Clients will not be charged
a separate fee for financial planning services. Clients may terminate the Financial
Planning Agreement without penalty within five business days of signing the
Financial Planning Agreement. Thereafter, clients may terminate the Financial
Planning Agreement generally upon written notice. APWC holds the right to
change financial planning fees due complexity and/or the client not meeting the
minimum stated asset requirements.
Foundation Planning Fees
The fixed rate for creating client financial plans is between $2,500 and $12,000,
depending on complexity. Fees are charged 100% in advance, but never more than
six months in advance.
Hourly Fees
The hourly fee for these services is $400 per hour for Senior Advisor, $150 for
certified professional staff and $75 for all other professional staff. Fees are charged
100% in advance, but never more than six months in advance. The highest rate
applies: $400 for Senior Advisor, $300 for business partners, $150 for certified
professional staff and $75 for all other professional staff.
B. Payment of Fees
Payment of Asset-Based Portfolio Management Fees
Asset-based portfolio management fees are withdrawn directly from the client's accounts
with client's written authorization on a quarterly basis or may be invoiced and billed
directly to the client on a quarterly basis. Clients may select the method in which they are
billed. Fees are paid in advance.
Payment of Financial Planning Fees
As stated above, the cost to a Client for the financial planning services provided by
APWC is included in the asset-based fees that a Client pays, Clients will not be charged a
separate fee for financial planning services. Unless agreed upon exception in the wealth
management agreement. Fees in this case are to be paid from check or billed from
account at the Custodian.
C. Client Responsibility for Third Party Fees
Clients are responsible for the payment of all third-party fees (i.e. custodian fees,
brokerage fees, mutual fund fees, transaction fees, etc.). Those fees are separate
and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by APWC. Please see Item 12 of
this brochure regarding broker-dealer/custodian.
D. Prepayment of Fees
APWC collects fees in advance. Refunds for fees paid in advance will be returned
within
fourteen days to the client via check or return deposit back into the client’s account.
For all asset-based fees paid in advance, the fee refunded will be equal to the
balance of the fees collected in advance minus the daily rate* times the number of
days elapsed in the billing period up to and including the day of termination.
(*The daily rate is calculated by dividing the annual asset-based fee rate by 365.)
Fixed fees that are collected in advance will be refunded based on the prorated
amount of work completed at the point of termination.
For hourly fees that are collected in advance, the fee refunded will be the balance
of the fees collected in advance minus the hourly rate times the number of hours
of work that has been completed up to and including the day of termination.
E. Outside Compensation for the Sale of Securities to Clients
Neither APWC nor its supervised persons accept any compensation for the sale
of securities or other investment products, including asset-based sales charges or
service fees from the sale of mutual funds. |
