Investment Fees & Our Performance Fee Model
Glen Elgin only profits when you profit. Our performance-based fee model aligns our success directly with your investment returns.
In Short
Glen Elgin charges performance-based fees, meaning you only pay a fee when your portfolio delivers a profit. This client-first model aligns our incentives with your outcomes — we are rewarded for growing your wealth, not simply for managing it. There are no surprise commissions; we only take a share of the profit when you make a profit.
How our performance fee model works
What truly sets Glen Elgin apart is its client-first business model. Our fees are performance-based, meaning you only pay if you make a profit. Our success is directly aligned with yours — we only earn a fee when your portfolio delivers a positive return.
This stands in contrast to traditional models that charge fixed fees or commissions regardless of performance. With Glen Elgin, we only take commissions, from profit, if you make profit — so there are no surprises and no reward for simply holding your money.
Why aligned fees matter
Shared incentives
We are motivated to grow your wealth because our fee depends on your profit.
No profit, no fee
If your portfolio does not deliver a profit, you do not pay a performance fee.
Disciplined selection
Our model encourages us to recommend only opportunities we believe can perform.
Transparent and simple
Any applicable fees are clearly disclosed before you invest, and full details are set out in the relevant product documentation and our terms and conditions. You can review your performance and any fees applied within the Glen Elgin platform at any time.
- Fees charged only on profit
- Clear disclosure before you invest
- Performance and fees visible in your dashboard
- No hidden commissions
Backed by real performance
Our model is built on results. The average portfolio return for 2024/25 was 20.42%. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results, and all investing carries risk, but our aligned fees mean we are always working toward the same goal as you.
