How Do Fees Apply in a Portfolio?

Portfolio fees are intended to replicate management fees placed by advisors on a group of securities.

The Fee option allows you to select from 4 frequencies (never, monthly, quarterly, and annually) which will apply a portion of the annualized rate at the end of each period. For example if you choose a quarterly frequency and an annualized fee of 2%, then 0.5% will be deducted from the portfolio level on 3/31, 6/30, 9/30, and 12/31.

If you have a sleeved portfolio, please be aware that adding a fee on the parent portfolio and the underlying portfolios will add 2 layers of fees, one at the sleeve level and one at the parent portfolio level. Generally we suggest adding fees at only one level of the portfolio.
