Are financial advisor fees for self-employed Keogh accounts a deductible expense on schedule C?

[Anonymous]

if they are paid through the a/c then no.    these fees will reduce the value which will eventually reduce the taxable amount in the a/c.  if you reimburse the a/c (talk to your plan's trustee to see if this is permissible so you don't make excess contributions), this would be fees for investment advice which are no longer deductible,.
