How we charge

It is important to understand what fees you will pay and what services you will receive in return.  When you invest with St. James's Place you pay for our advice and the products we recommend.

Following an initial consultation (see “New Clients”) we will be able to give you an indication of what specific charges are likely to apply based on your strategy and taking into account the size of your investments, specific plan types and funds.  As part of any recommendations we make, and prior to you making any investments, you will receive a personalised illustration which sets out the charges that will apply to your specific investments.  Further information on our charges can be found here

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
