Investment Advisory Agreement
An Investment Advisory Agreement outlines the relationship between an advisor and client, specifying fiduciary duties and compensation. This playbook emphasizes regulatory compliance, performance reporting, and termination triggers.
Fees & Payment Mechanics
Negotiation strategy
Ensure that the payment terms are clearly defined to avoid any ambiguity. Negotiate for shorter payment cycles to improve cash flow and include penalties for late payments to incentivize timely payment.
Negotiate for flexible payment terms that align with your cash flow needs. Consider proposing a grace period for late payments to maintain a good relationship with the Company.
