  • Given my financial situation, should I choose an investment advisory service? Why or why not?
  • How will you choose investments to recommend to me?
  • What is your relevant experience, including your licenses, education, and other qualifications? What do these qualifications mean?

What fees will I pay?

You will pay an ongoing monthly asset-based fee. This fee is calculated at the end of each month and is based on a percentage of the value of the cash and investments in your account[s] that we manage. Conflicts of Interest: The more assets in your advisory account, the more you will pay in advisory fees, and we therefore have an incentive to encourage you to increase the assets in your account. Other Fees and Costs: In addition to our advisory fee, you will also be responsible for custodian fees, account maintenance fees, fees related to mutual funds, and other transactional fees. Clients may also pay additional fees for additional services, such as financial planning, (half billed at the beginning of the engagement, and half billed at end of the engagement); these services are billed separately and are charged hourly or at a fixed rate. Some of our Investment Adviser Representatives also serve as insurance agents. Through their role as such they may sell, for commissions, various insurance products.

You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce any amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.

For more detailed information on our fees, please see Item 5 – Fees and Compensation of our Form ADV Part 2A.

What Are Your Legal Obligations to Me When Acting as My Investment Adviser? How Else Does Your Firm Make Money and What Conflicts of Interest Do You Have?

When we act as your investment adviser, we have to act in your best interest and not put our interests ahead of yours. At the same time, the way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the investment advice we provide you.

Here is an example to help you understand what this means: We will recommend that you open your account with a specific custodian, where we have an institutional relationship and receive economic benefits. However, you ultimately decide where to open your accounts. Choosing a different custodian may result in the loss of quality of service and/or ability to obtain favorable prices. Certain Investment Adviser Representatives of our firm are also Registered Representatives of an unaffiliated broker/dealer, through which they may sell securities for which they earn a separate commission. As noted above, certain Investment Adviser Representatives of our firm are also licensed insurance agents and may earn commissions on various insurance products. We have a conflict of interest in recommending these products to you because of the potential for additional revenue. We have a financial incentive to recommend that you rollover retirement plan assets into an IRA we manage; however, we seek to educate you on your options and the fees and benefits associated with each choice and then allow you to choose which you feel is in your best interest.

  • How might your conflicts of interest affect me, and how will you address them?

For more detailed information on conflicts of interest, please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices and Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation of our Form ADV Part 2A.
