What fees will I pay?

Generally fees are charged on the market value of client assets in each account and calculated and paid quarterly in advance. The market value of the securities in each account for purposes of determining the following quarter’s advisory fee is calculated as of the close of trading on the last business day of each quarter. For “CDI^TM” SMAs, retail clients are charged an annual investment advisory fee that generally ranges between 0.450% and 1.200%. The investment advisory fee is charged by and paid to our affiliate, NBIA.

Other Fees and Costs - With the exception of advisory clients investing through retirement accounts, clients will generally be subject to the underlying fees and expenses of the products purchased in their accounts. In addition, retail investors will generally incur other fees and expenses associated with their account, including, but not limited to, custodial fees and expenses (where the custodian is selected by the client), transfer taxes, and electronic fund, wire and other account transfer fees.

Additional Information - Because we are generally compensated based on the revenues generated from investors, this creates an incentive for us to encourage investors to increase the amount of assets invested and to recommend or allocate to products and strategies that will increase our compensation. Please see “Examples of Ways We Make Money and Conflicts of Interest” below.

You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce any amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.

What are your legal obligations to me when acting as my investment adviser? How else does your firm make money and what conflicts of interest do you have?

When we act as your investment adviser, we have to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. At the same time, the way we (and our advisory affiliates) make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the recommendations and investment advice we provide you. Here are some examples to help you understand what this means.

Examples of Ways We Make Money and Conflicts of Interest.

For a more detailed list of potential conflicts of interest that can impact how we render advice, please see our Conflict Disclosures at www.nb.com/conflicts-disclosure-nbc https://www.nbprivatewealth.com/canadian-conflict-disclosures-nbc. Please also refer to NBIA’s Conflict Disclosures at http://www.nb.com/conflicts_disclosure_nbia/ https://www.nbprivatewealth.com/conflicts-disclosure-nbia. Proprietary Products: the “CDI^TM” strategies managed by NB Canada are proprietary strategies. As we are generally compensated based on revenues generated, this creates an incentive for us to allocate clients assets to more expensive strategies, even where such strategies do not have the best performance.
