Fees

Our business model is very transparent, with full disclosure. Clients can calculate to the penny how much money they make. There are no hidden mark-ups on bonds. Clients own the securities directly, and once a month get to see everything in the portfolio. We provide our rationale and analysis on each security in written commentary.

We manage portfolios for individuals and foundations on a discretionary basis. We manage client portfolios on a segregated basis in order to customize to each client’s objectives as detailed in their Investment Policy Statement.

Performance Incentive Fee (when earned):
