How is my advisor paid to manage my investment funds?
In the spirit of a high level overview, there are some options available to Canadian investors to pay for the advice and service they receive from their investment advisor.
Your Manulife Securities statement. Annual Charges and Commissions section.
With the intent to increase investor clarity around investment fees, any account charges or commissions received by Manulife Securities will be listed on your statement under the headline Annual Charges and Commissions near the end of your statement. From there, Manulife Securities pays a portion of these fees to your advisor as compensation for the ongoing servicing of your account and providing advice.
