BROKERAGE FEE

Brokerage is charged each time you place an order to buy or sell shares via our online custodial trading service. When you buy shares, the brokerage fee is added to the total value of your order. When you sell shares the brokerage fee is deducted from the total value of your order.

The brokerage for custodial orders reflects the costs associated in transacting with international brokers and international markets.


ADMINISTRATION CHARGE

Direct Broking charges an annual administration fee that reflects the requirements of administering and maintaining a custodial holding portfolio.

Direct Broking performs the following tasks on your behalf:

  • Daily reconciliation of holdings as held by the custodian
  • Processing corporate actions, including the payment of cash, payment of tax and allocation of shares
  • Providing tax details on an ad hoc basis for non-standard corporate actions

  • End of year Resident Withholding Tax reporting
  • End of year reporting for the calculation of Foreign Investment Fund tax obligations arising from the custodial holdings
  • Assorted administration activities as required by unforeseen market events and conditions
