Charges
As the emphasis for The Satis Wealth Management Service is on forming a long-term relationship with our clients, the charging structure is based on an ongoing basis with no initial charges, applied by Satis. Our investment minimum is £500,000 and most clients expect to reach £1 million in the foreseeable future.
The charge for the service is met by a tiered ongoing percentage which is based on the funds under the management of Satis. The service is subject to a minimum fee of £5,000 per annum.

If the relationship ends after the Discovery period, then all costs incurred will be covered by Satis. In cases where you instruct Satis to work on your behalf, but decide to end the relationship before the first year’s fee can be taken, an abort fee may be payable. This will be the difference in the fees paid by you to Satis so far, and our annual minimum of £5,000.
Please note the above charges are examples only. All charges will be provided in writing and agreed before any areas of the advice is implemented.
Payment for the Satis Wealth Management Service is taken on a monthly basis and as default from the cash held in your investment account. The account will be managed to ensure that sufficient funds are held to cover all charges as they become payable. Should you wish, payment can be made directly by yourself to us via cheque or electronic transfer.
