Fee Formulas

Management Fee:

Formula:

Management Fee = SUM: (% / 365 * S)

Component

Meaning

S

Average value of the Portfolio during the Accounting Period.

%

Annualized Management Fee rate (percentage).

This is applied individually for each component (Product or Non-Product) based on its corresponding rate source.

Success Fee:

Formula:

Success Fee = (Sj – Smax – MF – Inflow + Outflow) * %

Component

Meaning

Sj

Portfolio value at the end of the current Accounting Period, expressed in Portfolio Currency (PF CCY). This is the net value after considering market movements, inflows, outflows and fees.

Smax

Portfolio value at the end of the Accounting Period when the Success Fee was last charged. If none, initial assets value.

MF

Management Fee charged for the current Accounting Period.

Inflow

Total value of assets contributed or added to the portfolio between the last Success Fee date (Smax) and the end of the current period. Types of transactions included/excluded:

Inflow is calculated as the sum of net amount (Net Amount PF Ccy) from transactions with the following types and subtypes:

  • INVESTMENT

  • TRANSFER IN

  • INCOME COUPON – Only for transferred Structured Products. It’s necessary to calculate and deduct the portion of the coupon that was accumulated before the product was added to the portfolio.

  • FEE with subtype:

    • Reimbursement

    • Retrocession

    • Incentive

Outflow

Total value of assets withdrawn from the portfolio between the last Success Fee date (Smax) and the end of the current period. Types of transactions included/excluded:

Outflow is calculated as the sum of net amount (Net Amount PF Ccy) from transactions with the following types and subtypes:

  • WITHDRAWAL

  • TRANSFER OUT

  • FEE (with subtypes excluding):

    • Reimbursement

    • Retrocession

    • Incentive

  • TAX

%

Success Fee rate (percentage applied to net gains above the High Water Mark).

This formula ensures the Success Fee is only applied to actual performance gains after deducting fees and client movements (like deposits and withdrawals)
