Pricing

One commission schedule, no hidden fees. What you see here is what you pay, plus third-party costs passed through at cost.

Currency conversion

Conversions for trading and settlement are executed at the interbank rate plus 0.10%. The rate applied is shown on every confirmation and statement. Accounts can hold balances in several currencies, so you convert only when you choose to.

Advice and portfolio management

Investment advice is charged on a retainer or per project, agreed in advance in writing. Discretionary portfolio management carries a management fee from 0.75% per year on assets under management, charged quarterly. A performance fee applies only where it is agreed in the mandate, and always with a high-water mark.

Brokerage commissions on transactions within a managed portfolio are charged at the rates above, and we do not receive inducements from product providers.

What is not included

  • Exchange, clearing and regulatory fees charged by third parties, passed through at cost
  • Stamp duties and financial transaction taxes, for example UK stamp duty reserve tax, French and Italian financial transaction taxes
  • Fees embedded by issuers in structured products and funds, disclosed separately before you invest
  • Correspondent-bank charges on international transfers

Before any transaction we provide ex-ante information on all costs and charges, and once a year a statement of the costs you actually paid, in line with MiFID II.
