Client Fees

Your Fiduciary

We make investment recommendations after we’ve learned about you through our Discovery Process. We educate you on the choices we recommend so the decisions you make are fully informed. This aligns our interests with yours.

Fee-Only

We are, and have always been, a fee-only wealth advisory practice (see our fee schedule below). We do not accept commissions of any sort on investments we recommend. Our custom portfolios are objectively constructed.

Account-Size Range

We invest our resources before we ask you to commit your own. When we mutually agree to work together, our relationship formally begins. Our clients invest from $250,000 to tens of millions through our investment services.

advanced legacy planning Fee

To create your customized legacy plan and related financial projections (see Advanced Planning Step 4.) MCM charges 0.15% or 15 basis points against your current estate’s value. You may also elect to first understand your future income and estate tax exposures (see Advanced Planning Step 3.) for $9500 before committing to your legacy plan creation. This $9500 charge will be credited against the 0.15% fee should you then decide to create a legacy plan.

Cash Management Fee

For money market, treasuries, or municipal bonds (and a demand deposit option for escrow services), MCM charges 0.30% or 30 basis points. For enhanced yield investments, the standard MCM fee schedule above applies. M&A escrow accounts will also be charged a one time $1000 set-up fee per account.
