Brooks Macdonald Cuts Platform Charges
The reduced ongoing charges apply to the PMPS business that manages almost £1.0 billion for advisors and their clients.
UK-listed wealth manager Brooks Macdonald
has cut charges for its Platform Managed Portfolio Services,
highlighting price competition in the sector.
The firm said it has set a reduced charge of 1.0 per cent for
active and 0.5 per cent for passive investments,
respectively.
As at the end of September, the PMPS business was overseeing
nearly £1 billion ($1.29 billion) in assets, across 10 risk
profiles.
“By targeting a lower OCF for our Platform Managed Portfolio
Service, we are providing an offering to advisors to deliver for
their clients in a way that aims to ensure the total cost to the
end client remains competitive,” Robin Eggar, co-head of UK
investment management at the firm, said.
Since 2012, Brooks Macdonald PMPS strategies have been launched
across 14 platforms.
