U.S. Bancorp Investments Minimum Investment (2026): What It Takes to Open an Account

Guides › Financial Advisor Fees

Updated September 23, 2026. Quick answer: It depends which strategy you pick: Personal Portfolios Wrap Program (Managed Account Strategies/SMA/Core, Guided UMA/UMA/UMP, Advisor Select/AMP/FMP) runs from $25,000 to $500,000, depending on the specific strategy or model portfolio. At the $25,000 low end, U.S. Bancorp Investments’ own fee schedule works out to $500 a year; strategies at the high end require substantially more.

The minimum, in the firm’s own words

“The minimum account size generally required for accounts in the Wrap Program is provided in Item 4, Services, Fees and Compensation of this Brochure. At our sole discretion, account minimums may be negotiated. If the value of your account falls below the applicable minimum, we may require you to provide additional money or securities. If your account does not meet the account minimum, we may terminate the advisory relationship and close the account or initiate the steps required to convert it to a commission-based brokerage account. In some circumstances, we may waive the minimum account size requirement based on our assessment of your circumstances.”

On waivability: “In some circumstances, we may waive the minimum account size requirement based on our assessment of your circumstances.”

The annual-fee-at-the-minimum figure applies that same brochure’s own published fee schedule to the disclosed minimum dollar amount; any distinction we could not independently confirm this session is named as an honest gap rather than presented as verified. Nothing here is personalized financial, tax, legal, or investment advice, and it is not a substitute for reading the firm’s own Form ADV Part 2A.
