Principal Fees and Costs

Generally, investment advisory accounts are charged a monthly fee that is a percentage of the total dollar amount of assets in your account. As a general matter, the more assets in your investment advisory account, the higher the fee you will pay. This means we have an incentive to encourage you to increase the assets in your investment advisory account. If you open an account in one of our wrap fee programs, the advisory fee includes payment for our investment advisory services, trade execution, custody of securities at Morgan Stanley and compensation to your FA. Certain programs also charge additional fees for other services and platform maintenance. Additionally, if you grant discretion over your assets to a third party or affiliated investment manager, you will be charged an additional advisory fee for their services. Finally, you may be charged additional costs if that investment manager decides to execute your transactions with a third-party broker-dealer instead of with us.

Other Fees and Costs

In both brokerage and investment advisory accounts, in addition to the fees that you pay to Morgan Stanley and the thirdparty fees that are referenced above, certain investment products contain built-in fees and expenses as described in that product’s offering material. Note, if your account is a margin account and you have an outstanding balance, you will pay margin interest.

Additional Information

You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce the amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying. See the Your Account and Service Fees, How Morgan Stanley Is Compensated or the Margin section of the applicable IAI Booklet for more detail. For specific information about the fees and costs charged in your investment advisory account, please refer to Items 5A, B, C and D in the applicable program’s ADV Brochure.
