Fees and charges

How FIIG is paid for bond trades

• FIIG acts as principal where it matches buyers and sellers in the bond market and earns its income on the difference between the buy and sell price (this is known as the margin).
• For FIIG to execute a trade it must make both the buyer and the seller happy with the price of the bonds and the corresponding returns that they will earn. So, it’s in FIIG’s interest for the trade to be executed, otherwise we don’t earn any income.

Minimum custody service fee

The custody service fee is subject to a minimum monthly fee of 

• $20 if you have chosen to have a Macquarie Bank CMA as your FIIG funding account; or
• $30 if you don’t have a Macquarie Bank CMA as your FIIG funding account. 

Dishonour fee

$60 - A dishonour fee of $60 may be charged if insufficient funds are available at the time FIIG seek to charge the Custody and Service fee.

In specie transfer fee

Maximum $300 - An in specie transfer fee may be payable should you transfer existing securities between FIIG and another custodian. This fee will vary according to the complexity of the transfer and will be notified to you prior to the transfer occurring.  However, the fee will not exceed $300 per security transferred.

All the fees described above are inclusive of GST and will be direct debited from your FIIG Funding Account.
