What are the fees for a Slavic Managed IRA account?
There is a flat management fee of .6% or 60 basis points (BPS) for each of the portfolios (This includes all custodian fees from the platform custodian, Mid-Atlantic Trust.) The management fee is charged as a percentage of the assets you have in your Slavic Managed IRA account. The fee is very low — fractions of a percent — so it is calculated using a basis point system. A basis point is 1/100 of a percent, meaning it takes one hundred basis points to equal one percent. To figure out the fee you would pay, simply multiply the total amount of your account asset by the 60 basis point, remembering to convert the basis points into hundredths of a percentage point.

Here’s an example:
A Slavic Managed IRA account with a $10,000 balance at 60 basis points (bps) would translate to a $60.00 annualized fee ($10,000 X .0060 = 60). All asset base fees are calculated quarterly and automatically deducted from your Slavic Managed IRA account. All fees are disclosed upfront and will be reflected on your account statement.
