Platform fee is accrued daily and deducted quarterly. It is calculated based on:
1. Bond holdings under one account,
2. Combined Unit Trust holdings of all FSM Global accounts under the main account holder, inclusive of any beneficiary account holdings.
The platform fee will be deducted from your holdings after the end of each quarter. The quarter ends on the last day of February, May, August, and November.
In summary, the platform fee of Cash and SRS holdings respectively will be deducted from the following sequence:
1. FSM Cash Account (SGD), OR
2. SGD Auto-Sweep Account, OR
3. AMOVA SHORT TERM BOND SGD (FORMERLY NIKKO AM), OR
4. EASTSPRING SGD CASH FUND A SGD, OR
5. Best Performing fund
Note:
- Quarterly platform fees will be deducted using only one of the methods listed above. If the fee exceeds the balance in the Cash Account, it will be fully deducted from the next available method (e.g., Auto-Sweep Account, and so on). The full quarterly fee will be deducted in a single transaction.
- For methods 2 to 5, the number of units to be deducted will be based on the price as of the last working day of the billing quarter. If that price is unavailable at the time of deduction, the latest available price will be used instead.
- A pro-rated platform fee may be incurred in the event of a full sell or transfer-out, and it will be deducted using methods 1 or 2. If there are insufficient funds, the fee will be deducted from the proceeds of the sold or transferred holdings.
