Hacksaw - it is a thin margin model for both us and the BD, but it works. We realize that scale at the group level allows for those thin margins, while also protecting those margins over the long term. The BD has $1.2T, and our group works with $12B, so with those size numbers at both levels we are able to work skinny.

I would also mention that the admin pricing on advisor as portfolio manager is very competitive as well. We compete with firms that charge anywhere from 10-30 basis points for program fees on the advisor as port manager program, when we are at 3-8 basis points. If an advisor has $100 Million in advisory that is a significant difference in higher retained revenue, decreased cost to the client or both. We have some situations were other BD's may pay $300k higher in transition dollars, but their advisory charges are $200-$300k higher, annually. Pretty simple math to determine the improvement over a 10 year period of time. That higher up front check can be very costly. |
So you're saying that for every $1 my client pays, I would receive $.935? |
Where is the SAM/SWM program fee?

We are a corporate RIA affiliated, so we use SAM only. Its 3-8 depending on AUM, and we do have some flexibility on the flat SAM pricing. Would need to discuss to come up with something that works for everyone.

Oh I know. $65k split between 2 companies for the risk and overhead associated with a $1mm producer plus making a profit, seems WAY too tight to me. Only way to make that work is to get size, and get it quickly.

Wait. So is the SAM fee (3-8 bps) not included in the payout?

NO it is NOT. He lied to us because he failed to mention the SAM Program Fee.
If you charge 1.00%. 3-8BPS comes out off the top.
So let's say 8 BPS. So, 0.92 goes to your 93.5% Grid.
So really you get $86 out of $100.
That's a fact Jack!

It is not included in the payout. The house keeps the 3-8bps, and then the rest is paid out at the grid. My understanding is that most BD's run it that way. So if you were at 3bps, and you charged 1.03%, you would receive 93.5% of the remaining dollar after the house kept the .03%, or put another way, client pays $1.03 and you are paid 93.5 cents in this example

Correct. They keep the 15bps, LPL keeps the 3-8bps. Then to the payout.

Right but your payout doesn’t start anywhere near 93 1/2

That makes more sense, but also not what you said when I asked directly the question bolded. Might want to tighten that up.
In reality, at $1mm in production, the payout is somewhere between 86.02% and 90.695% (93.5% after 3-8bps). But that's also if I'm charging 1%. If I was higher, it's higher, and if lower, it's lower.
charge 1.25% = 87.515% - 91.256% charge .75% = 83.527% - 89.75%
Still good - decent payouts by the way.

Neither does his
Edit to add - Mine is higher than his "93.5%", but we also have the added compliance of our own RIA

Why not?
Why don't you consult with your partners / upper management and tell them you have a chance to be an ongoing active participant on a forum that could double up your AUM over time, and you don't have to pay a thing for it.
If you get business from being here, your acquisition cost is $0. What is it normally? I bet it's a 5 figure number.

If you all recall, I suggested a group AH LPL trip to the 4 seasons and no one took me seriously.
