We’ve compiled answers to the most common questions we hear from clients—so you can feel confident, informed, and empowered as you plan your financial future.
Yes, we are. A fiduciary must place their clients’ best interests ahead of his or her own. Fiduciaries must disclose what their fees are, how they are compensated, and any potential conflicts of interest that might influence a client to use their services. There is a notable difference in the standard of care that fiduciary and non-fiduciary investors are held to. Non-fiduciary investors are only required to recommend investments that are suitable; they are not required to recommend investments that are in their clients’ best interest. Although an investment may be suitable, it may not be the best choice for you, and non-fiduciary investors are not legally required to disclose that. Our team members take pride in our commitment to client service.
In order to ensure that our clients receive the exemplary service and personalized attention that we are known for, our clients have a minimum of $1,000,000 in investable assets.
As you explore different options for your financial future, you may hear the terms “fee-only” and “fee-based” mentioned by different wealth management firms. With fee-only management, there are no commissions, no kickbacks, and no proprietary products. Your exact fee is determined by the size and complexity of your situation and generally ranges from 0.50% to 1.50% of assets under management. A fee-based firm may earn commission, fees, and/or kickbacks on products they recommend and sell in addition to the assets under management fee. Here at GDS Wealth Management, we are a fee-only firm, meaning we are paid an annual percentage for the assets you have under our management. We aim to make our fee structure fully transparent.
