With the Stan Clark Financial Team you pay a percentage fee based on the total market value of the assets we manage on your behalf, instead of commissions on every trade.
Using this method, our goals and objectives are consistent with yours: we get paid more as the value of your accounts grows. This aligns our financial interests directly with your performance.
By linking our fee to the value of the assets managed, not to the number and size of transactions, we eliminate transaction fees from adversely affecting investment decisions. Fees are fully disclosed and transparent.
The percentage fee is based on your family’s total investments held with our team. The more you hold, the lower your rate.
