Our relationship with you

Gleneagle is responsible to you for any financial services which Gleneagle provides to you. Gleneagle acts as principal in all transactions with you in respect of OTC financial products.  Gleneagle may also arrange for you to be supplied with financial services and products issued by non-related product providers.  Gleneagle may receive a fee or commission payment from these non-related issuers or providers as a result of you investing in one of their products or services.

How you can instruct us and your obligations

Gleneagle accepts order instructions in any of the following ways:
  • electronically, via electronic trading platform;
  • if we agree via telephone; and
  • if we agree in writing (including email if authorised by you), you must check and confirm with us that orders sent via email have in fact been received by us.
  It is your obligation to review any confirmation or statement we send to you to ensure its accuracy and report any discrepancies to us immediately. If you wish to discuss your account, obtain information about the type of portfolio in which you are invested, reporting or to update your personal information, you should contact Gleneagle.

Reporting

Whenever a transaction is executed on your account, a confirmation or statement will be sent to you by the issuer of an OTC derivative, or by Gleneagle on their behalf or available to be downloaded via the online trading platform. The confirmations may be delivered electronically to you, if authorised by you, according to Gleneagle and the other person’s requirements. Since Gleneagle only gives general advice and not personal advice, Gleneagle will not keep records of client profiles for investment or advice purposes, advice or recommendations for the services covered by this FSG.

Record Keeping

Gleneagle seeks to ensure that comprehensive and accurate records of client profiles, together with all advice or recommendations provided are properly maintained.

How we are remunerated

You may pay Gleneagle a fee depending on the type and level of services provided to you, the exchange upon which the transaction is to be conducted (if any), the frequency and volume of transactions executed, the financial products you choose and the amount you invest.  In particular, Gleneagle may receive fees and other benefits from the financial products that it issues to you.  Unless otherwise stated, all fees, charges, commissions and benefits disclosed in this FSG are inclusive of goods and services tax (GST).
Equities fees and rates
The standard fees you will typically be charged for transactions in ASX-traded equities are 1.1% (GST included) of the transaction value subject to a minimum of $82.50 but subject to a maximum of 1.65% and $150 (GST included). If your transaction is not typical (e.g. due to significant size relative to liquidity of the stock or is traded overseas), we may negotiate with you a different fee.  Fees for transactions made on exchanges other than an ASX are available on request.
ASX Derivatives fees
The standard fees you will typically be charged for exchange-traded derivatives are 1.1% (GST included) of the premium amount subject to a minimum of $82.50 subject to a maximum of 1.65% and $150 (GST included).
OTC Transaction fees
The fees, costs and charges for OTC Transactions are disclosed in the PDS for those products.
Other financial product providers and fees and commissions
Each Gleneagle advisor may arrange for financial services and products to be provided to you by other product providers. Gleneagle may receive commission payments as a result of you using their products or services. If you have been referred to Gleneagle, the referrer may receive part of any brokerage or fee received by Gleneagle or you may be asked by the referrer to pay them a fee out of your Prime Account. The amount paid or received by Gleneagle (or its representatives) will depend on Gleneagle’s arrangements with the referrer. Note that the fees, charges or other costs listed below which are imposed by other persons are correct at the date of this FSG but are subject to change without notice to you.  These are amounts which you are liable to pay because of your contractual arrangements with other persons, such as executing brokers or clearing participants, even though Gleneagle may be arranging your transactions.

Fail fees and default charges

When your account does not have available the financial products necessary to meet your settlement obligation, or if you do not provide us with sufficient funds in time to settle market obligations in relation to a buy transaction, you will be charged fail fees, which will be the greater of $55 and the daily fail fee, which is calculated at 16.5% per annum calculated daily of the settlement consideration for each failed buy transaction settlement. In relation to sell transactions, you will be charged fail fees, which will be the greater of $100 and the daily ASX fail fee, for each failed sell transaction settlement. Your executing broker or clearing participant may also charge you interest at default rates disclosed by them in their documents given to you.  We may also be liable to your executing broker or clearing participant for your default and we may charge you for that cost to us for meeting the liability arising from your default.  If the fee (including interest) charged to Gleneagle for your default is partly attributable to the overall balance of all Gleneagle accounts, Gleneagle may adjust the fee to you (up or down) to an amount commensurate with the cost of your default (so that other clients do not subsidises your default). If you owe an amount to Gleneagle and you have not paid that amount, Gleneagle may charge interest on that outstanding amount, even if it relates to your liability to a person appointed by you.  The rate will be the rate set out or described in any agreements with you or, if not specified or described, at the rate charged to Gleneagle for such defaults or, if that is not applicable, Gleneagle’s prevailing debit interest rate determined by it from time to time. Additional fees may be charged for transactions and services, including but not limited to international transfers, bank cheques and additional account administration fees.
