Can someone in the financial advising industry share a reasonable justification

Don't want to deal with managing money & takes emotion out of it

But I am wondering why the AUM reimbursement model?

It's better model than hourly or commissions

In that case, an annual or quarterly fee would make more sense, IMO

It's about incentivizing them to perform. The better the performance the more

In my firm's case, much of the cost comes from middle and back office costs.

The company I used to work for tiered the AUM fees. Invest more money

Fee-based advisors typically charge the fee for more than just asset management.
