Osaic Wealth offers several investment management programs where fees are charged as an annual percentage of your portfolio, typically billed monthly or quarterly. Because individual financial professionals negotiate their own fee schedules and programs vary by platform, exact rates depend on the specific account type and manager selected.

  • Advisor Managed Portfolios and Unified Managed Account Programs — Fees vary based on negotiations with your financial professional and the specific asset allocation models or third-party managers chosen.
  • Plan Participant Retirement Program — Annual management fees charge up to 3.00% of your account assets, structured as a fixed percentage or a tiered fee schedule.
  • Program Annuities — Annual advisory fees for managing outside annuities will not exceed 1.50% of program assets for new accounts.

Account minimums vary widely by program, ranging from $5,500 to $10,000 for certain automated or platform accounts, while other programs depend on the specific investment product or third-party manager.
