brokerage fees
Middleman's cut percentage
Brokerage fees are charges paid to a broker for executing transactions or providing services on behalf of a client.
These fees compensate the intermediary who facilitates trades in stocks, real estate, insurance, or other financial products.
The structure varies widely: some brokers charge flat fees per transaction while others take a percentage of the deal's value.
The brokerage fees on that stock trade were higher than I expected.
Many online platforms have reduced or eliminated brokerage fees to attract retail investors.
