What investment services and advice can you provide me?

Portfolio Management – Abbey Street’s private wealth portfolio management draws on the unique advantage of perspective from institutional retirement plans and the decisions of their committees. Our asset allocation, manager selection, and due diligence direct the allocation of your portfolio assets among the various investment options that are available. Although Abbey Street does have certain investment strategies that it seeks to execute for all of its clients, Abbey Street tailors its advisory services to your individual needs and preferences. You engage Abbey Street to continuously monitor your investment accounts and provide advice. When you engage us for portfolio management services, you will sign an advisory agreement that gives us discretionary authority to determine the investment to buy and sell in your account. You may impose reasonable restrictions on our discretionary authority, which must be provided to us in writing and accepted by us.

Portfolio performance reporting is provided quarterly and there is a minimum initial and ongoing account size for portfolio management services. Prior to receiving advisory services, you are required to enter into a written agreement with Abbey Street setting the terms and conditions of the advisory relationship. More detailed information about our services is available in our Form ADV Part 2A, specifically under Item 4, “Advisory Business.”

What fees will I pay?
Abbey Street’s advisory relationships are administered through a monthly asset-based fee based on the value of the advisory account. The asset-based fee reduces the value of your account and will be deducted from your investment portfolio. Though all annual fees are negotiable, generally, Abbey Street’s fees for private family client relationships is based on a percentage of assets under management according to the following schedule:

  • $0 – $1,500,000 in assets – Annual fee of 1.50%
  • $1,500,000 – $6,000,000 in assets – Annual fee of 1.00%
  • $6,000,000 – $10,000,000 in assets – Annual fee of 0.90%
  • $10,000,000 – $20,000,000 in assets – Annual fee of 0.80%
  • Over $20,000,000 in assets – Annual fee is negotiable

Transaction fees through your custodian are not included in our advisory asset-based fee. Some investments may also impose additional fees that will reduce the value of your investment over time, such as mutual funds. The amount paid to our firm and your financial professional does not vary based on the type of investment we select on your behalf.

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 Our fees are clearly outlined in our advisory agreement and in our Form ADV Part 2A, under Item 5, “Fees and Compensation.”

Conversation Starters: Ask us the following questions –
Help me understand how these fees and costs might affect my investments. If I give you $10,000 to invest, how much will go to fees and costs, and how much will be invested for me?

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 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. Here is an example to help you understand what this means:

• The more assets you have in the advisory account, the more you will pay us. We therefore have an incentive to increase the assets in your account in order to increase our fees.
• Some of our advisors are also licensed to sell insurance and may receive commissions on purchases of insurance products.

We benefit from the advisory services we offer you. Additional information about these conflicts are provided in our Form ADV Part 2A under Item 10, “Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations.”

Conversation Starters: Ask us the following questions –
How might your conflicts of interest affect me, and how will you address them?

How do your financial professionals make money?
Our financial professionals are paid a salary. Those individuals that are also licensed to sell insurance may receive commission payments from the purchases of insurance products in addition to their salary.
