Fees and Compensation
Describe how you are compensated for your advisory services. Provide your fee schedule.
Disclose whether the fees are negotiable.
Guardian Wealth Management, Inc. charges fees to its clients for providing services. In the typical Investment
Advisory Agreement, Guardian charges a fixed percentage of assets under management as its fee. For
example, if the client hires Guardian to manage $1,000,000 and Guardian is charging 1% per year, billed
quarterly, then the client would pay Guardian $2,500 each quarter (assuming an account value which does
not change).
Guardian also offers fee-based planning. In a fee-based planning arrangement, Guardian charges a fee on a
one-time basis and in return provides an investment plan for the client to implement and monitor on his/her
own. Guardian does not assume management of the plan going forward and earns no compensation from the
plan beyond providing the original document.
The Investment Advisory Services Agreement with Guardian is terminable at any time. Any fees paid by the
client, but unearned based on the termination date, will be refunded to the client.
All fees earned by Guardian are based on the closing account value on the last day of each quarter.
Guardian’s maximum annual advisory fee charged to an Independent RIA for the investments and services
outlined in Item 4 – Advisory Business is two percent (2.00%) but is negotiable for a lower rate depending
on the client’s needs and is at the sole discretion of the advisor. Fees will be based on the account balance
at the end of the quarter. Comparable services for lower fees may be available from other sources. Fees are
prorated based on the number of days management is provided during the initial billing period. The
Custodian will debit the combined total of the fees disclosed above from the accounts managed by Guardian
and disburse fees to Guardian.
Hourly fees range from $150 to $250 per hour.
Fees charged by Guardian are negotiable and are settled on at the time of execution of the Investment Advisory
Service Agreement.
Describe whether you deduct fees from clients' assets or bill clients for fees incurred. If
clients may select either method, disclose this fact. Explain how often you bill clients or
deduct your fees.
All fees are deducted directly from the managed account. Such charges will be reflected in the client
account statement issued by the custodian.
Describe any other types of fees or expenses clients may pay in connection with your advisory
services, such as custodian fees or mutual fund expenses. Disclose that clients will incur
brokerage and other transaction costs, and direct clients to the section(s) of your brochure that
discuss brokerage.
Since Guardian does not execute transactions nor maintain custody of client accounts, Guardian does not
charge separate fees and expenses. Any fees or expenses charged by investment companies or custodians will
be disclosed by those companies and/or custodians and will be included in those entities agreements and
offering documents. For additional information, see the Brokerage and Soft Dollar section of this document.
If you or any of your supervised persons accepts compensation for the sale of securities or
other investment products, including asset-based sales charges or service fees from the sale of
mutual funds, disclose this fact and respond to Items 5.E.1, 5.E.2, 5.E.3 and 5.E.4.
1. Explain that this practice presents a conflict of interest and gives you or your supervised
persons an incentive to recommend investment products based on the compensation
received, rather than on a client's needs. Describe generally how you address conflicts that
arise, including your procedures for disclosing the conflicts to clients. If you primarily
recommend mutual funds, disclose whether you will recommend "no-load" funds.
2. Explain that clients have the option to purchase investment products that you recommend
through other brokers or agents that are not affiliated with you.
3. If more than 50% of your revenue from advisory clients results from commissions and
other compensation for the sale of investment products you recommend to your clients,
including asset-based distribution fees from the sale of mutual funds, disclose that
commissions provide your primary or, if applicable, your exclusive compensation.
4. If you charge advisory fees in addition to commissions or markups, disclose whether you
reduce your advisory fees to offset the commissions or markups.
Guardian is only compensated through its management fees. That means that Guardian is "fee-based".
Guardian receives no additional compensation on transactions which occur under an Investment Advisory
Services Agreement.
If Guardian recommends a security which will be held outside of the custodian, and for which the transaction
will occur through a broker/dealer, the Guardian advisor may receive compensation through a FINRA
registered broker/dealer. A client has the right to purchase securities recommended by a Guardian advisor
acting as a Registered Representative through another Registered Representative or FINRA broker/dealer. |
