FAQs

Who is this service for?
This service is for confident self-directed investors, professional investors and financial advisers, who want help creating and implementing an asset allocation strategy, and want to stay on top of changes in investment strategy and outlook.

Who is this service not for?
Retail investors, or investors seeking a personal recommendation or requiring an assessment of suitability as regards their investment needs and objectives.

Why the flat fee?
We offer the Elston Investor range of model portfolios at a flat rate fee of including VAT.  Fees vary depending on the complexity of the portfolio.
This is for research and analytics only, and to receive updates to the models.  We do not manage the models for the Subscriber.  The subscriber has control as to when and how they implement their own portfolio.


Other costs to consider
As with any portfolio you manage, your chosen platform will charge for dealing and custody charges, whilst the realised performance of your portfolio is net of underlying product costs of the ETFs you select.  Your chosen platform is responsible for informing you of these costs.

​
​Will your portfolio's performance be identical to the model portfolio's performance?
No.  Reasons for difference in performance will be a function of 1) whether or not you select the same ETFs that are in the model portfolio; 2) whether or not your rebalance your portfolio in line with the model on a timely basis; 3) the dealing and custody costs of your chosen platform.  The closer you track the model, the more similar the performance.


About the subscription service
The model portfolios is a research subscription service.  
The model portfolios are not managed on your behalf, and we cannot assess your suitability for any one of the models or make personal recommendations as regards the appropriateness of any fund within the model or the model as a whole.  It is your responsibility to construct and manage your own portfolio using the research provided.  

Notice
Our research portfolios are for your reference only and are targeted at professional investors and financial advisers.  We do not assess suitability or make personal recommendations.  Before making any investments you should review the KIID documents for the respective funds that are made available to you by your broker.  Please refer to the notices and disclaimers in the subscription agreement.
