The overall fee for an Advisory Solutions account comprises the components below.
- Program Fee
The Program Fee schedule on the first $500,000 is annualized at either a 1.35% or 1.50% rate, depending on the account and model type, and is subject to lower fees, depending on the account size.
For UMA Models, there are also SMA Manager Fees based on the specific SMAs and proportion of each SMA in the account.
Edward Jones receives certain outside service and money market fund revenues pertaining to the Program Investments held in an Advisory Solutions account. These are returned to account holders in the form of a Fee Offset, reducing the overall fee.
Fund Model Fees and Expenses
The total expenses of investing in a Fund Model and Benefit Plan Fund Model include the Program Fee and the Administrative Fee (less any applicable Fee Offset), plus the internal expenses of the mutual funds held in your model.
UMA Model Fees and Expenses
The total expenses of investing in a UMA Model include the Program Fee, the Administrative-UMA Fee and the Weighted SMA Manager Fees (less any applicable Fee Offset), plus the internal expenses of the mutual funds held in your model.
As you consider your investment options, we encourage you to meet with your Edward Jones financial advisor to help determine which approach is best-suited to your situation, including how you prefer to pay for your investments.
In addition to the Advisory Solutions Program Fee, clients will indirectly bear the internal fees and expenses of the funds they hold.

An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. Although a money market fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money market fund.
