Advice Disclosure Statement
Bradley Nuttall Nelson Ltd (FSP712591) holds a Financial Advice Provider (FAP) Licence issued by the Financial Markets Authority (FMA), and we are licensed to provide financial advice services. Any restrictions on this license do not bind Bradley Nuttall Nelson.
Nature and scope of our advice service
Bradley Nuttall Nelson (BNN) provides a full range of Financial Planning Services, including financial advice and comprehensive financial planning. Financial advice entails developing appropriate investment recommendations aligned with one’s needs and return expectations, tailored to one’s age and stage. Comprehensive financial planning includes detailed personalised cash flow modelling and regular reviews, ensuring one’s priorities and plans are achievable. BNN is not limited to any product provider, and we use a range of providers to deliver our service. Products advised on include Managed Funds (Equity and Bond Funds), International and Domestic Equities and Bonds, Currency, Direct Equities (Shares), Direct Bonds, Unit Trusts, Listed Property Companies, Private Equity, KiwiSaver, and fixed term deposits. Client’s investments/monies are held on one of two dedicated Custodian platforms, either FNZ Custodians Ltd or Apex Group via Investment Custodial Services Limited.
Fees and costs
The fees charged in part depend on the nature and scope of the service/advice provided. A full disclosure of our costs, both “initial ” and ” ongoing,” is provided before engagement and commencement of work.
- A one-off fee may apply for the preparation and implementation of the financial plan. Typically, the charges for advice range between $500 and $2,000 plus GST, depending on the complexity. An ongoing investment management and client service fee is applied monthly or quarterly and is calculated on a tiered fee scale relating to the client’s funds under advice.
- Investments held on the Custodial platforms are also subject to custodial fees.
- Fund managers also have investment manager fees.
We will provide you with details of the fees applying when we have more information about your personal circumstances and client requirements.
Conflicts of Interest and receipt of incentives
We do not consider that we have any conflicts of interest as we do not receive any remuneration by way of rebates, financial inducements, trips, or sponsorships from any product provider of any kind. Any rebates or cost reductions that we have negotiated are directly rebated to client accounts.
