Fees

Financial Planning & Asset Management

Simple, Transparent Pricing

We believe you deserve to know exactly what you’re paying — and why. At Lake Road Advisors, we’re a fee-only firm, which means we’re compensated solely by you. No commissions. No product sales. Our fee is a simple percentage of the assets we manage on your behalf — and as your portfolio grows, your rate goes down.

Financial Planning & Asset Management

You pay a percentage-based fee on the full amount of assets we manage. We longer offer stand alone flat fee planning engagements.

Fees are determined by your total portfolio size as shown below:

What’s included: Everything. Financial planning and investment management are bundled together — there are no separate planning fees or add-on charges.
Who we work with: We typically work with families who have a minimum of $1,000,000 in investable assets, whether that’s old 401(k)s, IRAs, or brokerage accounts.

Our Fee Schedule Portfolio Size Annual Fee

Up to $1,000,000 → 1.25%
$1,000,001–$2,000,000 → 1.10%
$2,000,001–$3,000,000 → 0.95%
$3,000,001–$4,000,000 → 0.85%
$4,000,001– $6,000,000 → 0.75%
$6,000,000+ → 0.65%

How it works: Your fee is based on your total portfolio size — not split across tiers. So if you have $1,250,000 with us, your entire balance is charged at 1.10%, not 1.25% on the first million.

Example: A $1,250,000 portfolio = $13,750/year, billed quarterly.
