Nucleus Wrap customers to benefit from another cut to standard platform charge

Nucleus Financial Platforms, one of the UK’s leading, independent, adviser platform groups, has today announced it’s reducing the standard annual Nucleus Wrap platform charge by three basis points for holdings between £200k and £500k.

  • The cut will deliver an average 3.2% reduction for eligible customers.
  • Under the new standard pricing structure, a customer with assets of £500,000 would see their charge reduced by £450 over five years.

The rate cut is effective from 1 December and is the second major investment in reducing price for customers in the last 18 months.  In July 2022, the headline annual platform charge was cut from 35 to 33 basis points.

Nucleus’s commitment to investing in price has saved the group’s customers over £5m in the last two years, with a further £5m expected to be saved in 2024 through the combined price reductions.

Mike Regan, Chief Financial Officer at Nucleus said: “We’ve been clear that as we build scale this allows us to invest more in our service, product and price. I’m pleased that we are now sharing the benefit of our increased scale by introducing our second annual rate cut for Nucleus Wrap.

“This latest price reduction increases our competitiveness, and more importantly, delivers an improved outcome for many of our customers, who collectively will have saved more than £10m by the end of next year.

“Over the last 18 months we’ve invested more than £20m in our proposition, service and price as we deliver against the priorities of advisers, helping them to make their clients’ retirement more rewarding.”
