Features at a glance

How we build your portfolio together

It's important for us to understand your goals, comfort with risk and the length of time you have to reach your goals. We'll meet with you to discuss this and then work with you to select the portfolio objective that's right for your situation. Using your portfolio objective as a framework, you'll work closely with your financial advisor to build your portfolio to ensure it aligns with those goals and objectives, and Edward Jones' guidance. If you stay within the guidance provided by Edward Jones investment professionals, the final decision on all buys and sells is yours.

Extensive fund choices

With a Guided Solutions Fund Account, you'll be able to choose from an extensive list of eligible mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Mutual funds and ETFs hold many investments inside of them, providing diversification within your portfolio. The initial investment minimum to open an account is $5,000.

Staying on track

In addition to monitoring by you and your financial advisor, built-in guardrails help you keep your investments aligned with Edward Jones' guidance and your portfolio objective. Advanced technology works behind the scenes to rebalance your portfolio once a year. You can also make changes any time you'd like and request to rebalance as often as monthly. In fact, with Guided Solutions, you should expect to adjust your portfolio periodically to adapt to your evolving investment needs and to stay aligned with our guidance.

How you'll pay for services

The Program Fee begins at 1.35% and the Platform Fee begins at 0.05%. These fees are tiered so additional invested assets are subject to lower fees. 

The Program Fee includes your financial advisor's services, trading costs, performance reporting, evaluation and selection of investments for the program by Edward Jones research professionals, and other services to keep your account aligned with our guidance. The Platform Fee covers the support and maintenance of accounts on the Edward Jones investment advisory platform, such as trading and risk tools, training and education, and ongoing platform development. The fees do not include the internal expenses of the mutual funds and ETFs you own. Paying an ongoing fee can make expenses more predictable but can be more expensive over time.

For additional details about fees and expenses associated with Edwards Jones Guided Solutions, please see the Program Brochure and Fee Schedule.
