Gerald L. Ray & Associates, Ltd. provides investment management services
for an annual fee.
The fee is based on the amount of assets under
management at the end of each quarter. Since 100% of our firm’s
revenue comes from fees and not commissions, clients can be
assured that we create customized portfolios designed for long-term
growth and income. In essence, our firm’s revenue increases
when client accounts increase in value. Your success is our
success.
Clients are billed on a quarterly basis. Only services and
charges related to the investment management of an account
are included in the investment management fee. Fees for trading
are charged by the custodian of the account. Our firm does
not hold client assets. The current annual fee schedule is
as follows:
|
| Annual Fee |
Account Market
Value |
| 1.0% |
On First $5 Million * |
| .75% |
On Next $5 Million |
| .50% |
On Balances Over $10
Million |
| * 1.25% |
On Balances Under $500,000 |
The investment management fees are negotiable
and are competitive in comparison to mutual funds. Internal
management fees of actively managed mutual funds typically
range between 1-2%, excluding sales loads, which can be as
high as 3% in fees. Unlike investing in mutual funds, our firm’s
investment strategy eliminates hidden costs, high portfolio
turnover and investor confusion. Most importantly, our portfolio
managers are always available to discuss individual equity
and fixed income investments with clients.
Our minimum investment
amount is $250,000, with consideration given to lesser amounts.
