Total Cost Reporting | New "What are management fees for" article

1:14

As part of the new total cost reporting requirement, and in anticipation of the new annual investment statement your clients will receive in January 2027, we’ve published an article in the Advice Zone for our savings clients.

The article takes a very practical approach to the topic and answers the question, “What are management fees for?”

After all, this is one of the first questions investors ask themselves. The post helps clients understand that fees are part of how their investments operate and are managed and what they’re used to pay for. 

 **Be sure to read the article yourself!**

You’ll find explanations and useful talking points to help you start the conversation with your clients before their new statement arrives and put the fees into the context of their financial strategy.

### Keep it in your bookmarks to easily share it with your clients.

 

**Reminder: the value of your advice**

A discussion about fees can be an opportunity to remind your clients of everything you do for them: understanding their needs, helping them make the right choices, and supporting them as their circumstances or the markets change.

You can also visit the page dedicated to total cost reporting in the Advisor Centre at any time.
