The Fee Opacity Thesis

The Fee Opacity Thesis white paper is LIVE, and it says one thing
plainly: wealth management is not facing a single disruption, it is splitting into two separate
businesses, and the fault line running through the middle is not artificial intelligence. It is opacity.

For fifty years the advisory industry has priced itself in a way most
clients could never fully see.

The fee comes out of the account instead of a bill. Portfolio management, planning, tax
guidance, and behavioral coaching get bundled under one percentage so nobody can tell what
any single piece is actually worth..and the fee scales with the size of the account while the work
does not change at all. An advisor running the same six fund portfolio for a five hundred
thousand dollar client and a five million dollar client is doing the same job. One of those clients
pays ten times more for it in some cases. That was never really about the work. That was about
nobody being able to see the bill clearly enough to ask a hard question about it.
