Item 5 – FEES AND COMPENSATION
CSA Investment Management Services and CSA Alternative Investment Strategies
Advisory Fee
For the CSA Investment Management Services, the annual advisory fee is between .5 and 2.5% of the market value of the
portfolio which is billed either monthly or quarterly either in advance or in arrears (stipulated in the client’s advisory agreement)
based on the market value of the portfolio on the last day of the previous quarter.
Proration for New Accounts
For new client accounts, the first payment is a pro-rata calculation due upon execution of the advisory agreement that takes into
consideration the number of days remaining in the quarter and the initial value of the portfolio. The formula used to calculate
the initial advisory fee would be as follows: (Result of Quarterly Calculation) x (Days Remaining in Quarter) / (Total Number
of Days in Quarter). For advisory fee calculation purposes, a calendar quarter is a period beginning on January 1, April 1, July 1,
or October 1 and ending on the day before the next quarter. A day is any calendar day including weekends and holidays. For
new accounts, the number of days remaining in the quarter is the number of calendar days following the funding date of the
new account.
Valuation
Valuations are provided to CSA from the custodian and/or client statements. In the event a security is not priced by the client’s
custodian or CSA believes that the custodian’s price does not adequately represent investment value, we may obtain a price from
the issuer of the security or other independent third-party or otherwise take steps to “fair value” the security, in accordance with
CSA’s internal valuation procedures.
Direct Debit or Invoice
It is up to the client whether they wish to have the advisory fees withdrawn directly from their custodian account or pay by
check. With client authorization, CSA will automatically withdraw CSA’s advisory fee from the client’s account held by an
independent custodian. Typically, the custodian withdraws advisory fees from the client’s account during the first month of each
quarter based on CSA’s instruction. All clients will receive brokerage statements from the custodian no less frequently than
quarterly. The custodian statement will show the deduction of the advisory fee for those clients who authorize the advisory fees to
be withdrawn directly from their custodian account. CSA will send an invoice to all clients who choose not to have advisory fees
withdrawn directly from their custodian account. The invoice is payable upon receipt and will include the fee calculation and
amount due.
Billing Statements
CSA will send a statement to each client who authorizes CSA to instruct the custodian to withdraw fees directly from the account.
The statement will show the amount of the fee, the value of the client’s assets upon which we based the fee, and the specific
manner in which we calculated the fee. It is the client’s responsibility to verify the accuracy of the fee calculation. The custodian
will not determine whether the fee is properly calculated.
