Rules for Fee Reimbursements
  • You can reimburse fees for a 12-month period.
  • 50% of the trailing 12 months of fees (net of any prior rebate) is the maximum amount that you can reimburse.
  • Multiple reimbursements cannot exceed the original 50% maximum for the trailing 12-month period. For example, if fees in a 12-month period were $12,000, you can reimburse a maximum of $6,000 in fees. So if you reimburse $5,000 in fees one week, you can only reimburse a maximum of $1,000 in fees the following week because $5,000 + $1,000 = the maximum reimbursement of $6,000.
  • We process fee reimbursements by simultaneously debiting the master and crediting the client account.
  • If the master does not have the funds available to satisfy the requested fee reimbursement, the request will not be processed.
