UBS Wealth Management USA FAQ

What wealth management fees does UBS Wealth Management USA charge?

UBS Wealth Management USA uses the following fee models.

Fee-only model. The main advantage of this model is clients don't have to worry their wealth managers are influenced by commissions when making financial recommendations. Fee-only advisors have a fiduciary duty toward their clients. That means they are legally required to put their clients' interests first and cannot sell them a product they don't need or that goes against their goals or risk tolerance.

Performance or incentive model. In this model, instead of charging a fixed fee or a fee based on the assets under management, the wealth manager charges a percentage of the upside of a benchmark index. If the client's account does not beat the benchmark the manager forfeits the fee. This model closely aligns the incentives of wealth management companies and customers, but it can also push managers to take on higher risk.
