Fee Structure
J R Baker Group helps you select third-party investment managers to handle your portfolio. You pay an ongoing fee directly to the investment manager based on a percentage of the assets they manage for you. The third-party manager then pays a portion of that fee to J R Baker Group, up to a maximum of 1.15% per year. Fees are calculated based on your portfolio's value at the end of each quarter and are paid in advance. Account minimums vary depending on the specific third-party manager you choose, and fixed income accounts generally have higher minimums than equity accounts.
