The Industry

Lots of pieces in a very complex puzzle…….

The Real ProblemIt is not a question of what to do.

It is a question of how do we, specifically us, do this.

DEFINITION of 'Opportunity Cost'

The cost of an alternative that must be forgone in order to pursue a certain action.

INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Transaction Costs'

Transaction costs are important to investors because they are one of the key determinants of net returns. Transaction costs diminish returns, and over time, high transaction costs can mean thousands of dollars lost from not just the costs themselves but because the costs reduce the amount of capital available to invest.
