Mackenzie Investments announces automated preferred pricing service and management fee reductions Français
TORONTO, March 8, 2017 /CNW/ - Mackenzie Financial Corporation (Mackenzie Investments) announced today that it is implementing automatic switching into its Private Wealth Series.
Beginning April 13, 2017, and the second Friday of every month thereafter, qualified investors – investors with a minimum of $100,000 per fund and households with a minimum of $250,000 – will be automatically switched into the appropriate Private Wealth series. These switches will occur such that investors will be invested in the lowest fee series for which they qualify.
Mackenzie's Private Wealth Solutions Preferred Pricing will be further enhanced with the introduction of a high-water mark. The high-water mark will benefit investors by providing cost protection against downward market movements by locking in the highest market value their portfolio has reached net of redemptions.
"At Mackenzie Investments, we are continually seeking out initiatives to support advisors in helping their clients meet their financial goals. We are proud to offer Private Wealth Solutions Preferred Pricing to our investors. Our goal is to ensure all clients are transitioned into our Private Wealth Series once they qualify," said Barry McInerney, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Mackenzie will align its retail and Private Wealth Solutions Preferred Pricing shelves by launching corresponding Private Wealth series where required. Additionally, as part of that alignment and in an effort to align with the dealer compensation generally paid in the industry for funds in the fixed income categories, Mackenzie will reduce management fees and dealer compensation on certain fixed income funds.
The following changes will be made effective April 3:
