In general, we charge a percentage of assets under management for portfolio management services, which typically range from 0.25%-2.0%. These fees are assessed on an annual basis, in advance or arrears depending on the terms of your investment advisory agreement. You should be aware that the more assets there are in your account, the more you will pay in fees. This means we have an incentive to encourage you to increase the assets in your account. Our financial planning fees are retainer based and depend on the nature of services. For firms that TMG acquires, we will honor fee schedules that are in place at the time of the acquisition which will vary.

In addition to our fees, you may incur additional fees and costs related to the investments in your account, such as custodian fees, account maintenance fees, transaction costs, surrender charges, wire transfer and electronic fund fees, internal management fees of mutual funds and variable annuities, and other product related fees such as redemption fees. We may also utilize sub-advisers for certain portfolios which will have additional fees which are disclosed to clients.

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. Please refer to our Form ADV Part 2A Brochure for more detailed information about our services, also available at www.themathergroup.com.

When we act as your investment adviser, we have to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. That means we are required to act in your best interest throughout our entire advisory relationship. At the same time, the way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the investment advice we provide you. An example of what this means is a perceived conflict may arise when we receive client referrals from third parties to whom we pay referral fees. This is a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to pay referral fees so that the third parties will refer clients to us that they otherwise might not refer to us.

The firm’s revenue is derived from the advisory fees that we collect from your account. We do not receive compensation for the sale of securities to our clients.
