Macdonald, Shymko & Company has developed a proprietary comprehensive program for Strategic
Asset Monitoring, (S.A.M.). The S.A.M. program provides clients with
advisory, implementation and monitoring services, based on our investment philosophy.
S.A.M. provides you with a monitored
investment program geared to help you reach your investment goals. Services under the S.A.M.
program include:
- Investment Policy Statement Process
- Monitoring Process
- Reporting Letter With Suggestions and a Consolidated Portfolio Report
- Discussion of Reports and Portfolio Suggestions
- Implementation (buying, selling, rebalancing)
- Annual Portfolio Meeting
Your investment assets are generally held through our custodial relationship at an independent custodian. The S.A.M. fee is assessed based on a percentage of assets in the
program. The following is an indication of the MSC S.A.M. fee:
- Portfolios of $1 million - slightly less than 1%
- Portfolios of $3 million - approximately 0.70%
- Portfolios of $10 million - approximately 0.45%.
Our S.A.M. fee includes the custodial fee charges if held through our custodial relationships. There is no minimum portfolio size for this program, however the minimum annual fee is $1,200
per year. Reporting freequency will be commensurate with portfolio size.
