SOLUTION-BASED FEE STRUCTURE
Traditional Investments – Active Management
For active investment advisory and portfolio management services using traditional investments (mostly individual stocks), we assess a fixed fee monthly in arrears that is based on the value of the assets under management (AUM). The fee is assessed using the tiered scale shown below. It is applied to total household account value rather than by each individual account. Clients have a choice of having the fees drawn directly from their investment accounts (for ease and convenience) or they may be invoiced separately and paid from another personal account.
Traditional Investments – Passive Management
For passive investment advisory and portfolio management services using traditional investments (mostly low-cost ETFs), we assess fees the same way as we do active management except it is a flat fee of 0.50% per year charged monthly without regard to value of AUM. This fee includes a fee paid to our subadvisor, TradingFront, which assists with automatic quarterly rebalancing and technology services.
Tax-Focused Solutions - Retirement Plans, Donor Advised Funds and Health Savings Accounts
We act as a 3(38) investment manager for 401(k) and cash balance pension plans and assesses a fixed fee that ranges from 0.10% to 0.25% per year. This fee is charged quarterly in arrears based on the total plan value at the end of the quarter. Fees may be assumed and paid for by the plan sponsor or the participants depending on the plan design.
For Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) investment advisory services we assess a fee of 0.15% per year charged quarterly in arrears based on the value of the account at the end of quarter, which is in addition to the separate fees assessed by the platform provider.
For Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) investment advisory services we assess a fee of 0.10% per year charged quarterly in arrears based on the value of account at the end of quarter, which is in addition to the separate fees assessed by our platform providers.
Alternative Investments (Structured Notes, Private Equity, Hedge Funds)
Fees for these offerings generally vary depending on the issuer, time to maturity, and size of the investment. In addition to the issuer's fee, we assess a fixed management fee of 0.50% per year charged quarterly in arrears based on the value of the investment. This fee covers our ongoing due diligence and investment monitoring services. All clients will be provided with the prospectus and offering documents prior to executing the investment, as required.
Cryptocurrency
Fees for investment advisory services are fixed at 0.25% per year charged quarterly in arrears based on the account value at the end of the quarter. We may utilize various custody and trading platforms as needed.
Managed Futures
This service is not provided directly by Nashional Investments as an independent registered investment advisory firm, but rather by Jeff Nash as an Associated Person (AP) and Branch Manager of Lakefront Futures & Options, DBA aiSource. Commissions are generally charged based on the trading activity of one or more CTAs who act and trade using their own discretion and/or systematic approach. Investors who participate as limited partners in managed future funds that are offered will be charged a fixed fee that may differ from the AUM grid shown above. Please note: BEFORE entering into any trading, Jeff will go over all fees associated with the trading so you will be aware of what to expect once trading begins for that particular program.
