Assante Connect Fees

We charge a flat annual Investment Management Fee of 0.40%. The fee is calculated using daily balances and debited from the client account at month end.  There are no additional fees for rebalancing your account, no commissions, and Assante Connect will never charge your clients to move investment accounts in or out.

Management Expense Ratio (MER)

The funds we invest in charge a fee of their own. This goes towards their operating costs such as paying the fund manager, trailing commissions*, legal fees, etc. The MER is charged within the fund and unlike the Investment Management Fee, you will not see this fee deducted from your account. 

All of our performance figures are net of the MER to account for this fee and our Portfolio Managers use a selection of ETFs to keep the average MER of your investments between 0.60% and 0.70%. The MER of your account is displayed on your Assante Connect dashboard at all times. 

*None of Assante Connect's funds include trailing commissions.

Advisor Service Fee

Advisors are able to select a service fee between 0% - 1% based on the level of service they plan to provide to the client.  This service fee can be changed with client consent.
