How it works
At Canaccord Wealth, we provide fee-based wealth planning advice. This means our costs are tailored to the client's specific circumstances. Before we start work, we’ll always:
- Assess the clients situation to find out what they need
- Clearly set out the cost of that advice in writing
We won’t charge anything until the client is happy with, and has agreed to both our fees and the advice we’ll be providing.
If your client decides to invest with us, we usually charge an investment management fee that’s linked to the value of their portfolio and the investment service they choose. As with our wealth planning service, we’ll provide full details of all our fees and any other costs (such as third-party fund charges, tax, or duties), so that all parties are clear with everything before we begin.
Your clients first consultation
Our initial consultation is completely free and without obligation. This first meeting is designed to help us understand your client's circumstances - to decide whether they'd benefit from wealth planning advice or expert investment management, and in which areas.
After this consultation, if both parties agree our services are useful, we’ll provide a ‘service agreement’. The agreement will:
- Summarise the areas of advice we believe you need
- Confirm our costs
- Advise whether VAT is payable
We won’t start work until the client agrees to this and our Terms of Business, to make sure everything is clear before we begin.
