TRISPERITY ADVISORS, LLC


Firm Description
Trisperity Advisors, LLC (“Trisperity Advisors”) was founded in 2006 as Trisperity Wealth Advisory Group, LLC. The name was changed after an ownership adjustment in 2010. Trisperity Advisors provides personalized confidential financial planning and investment management to individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and small businesses. Advice is provided through consultation with the client and may include: determination of financial objectives, identification of financial problems, cash flow management, tax planning, insurance review, investment management, education funding, retirement planning, and estate planning. Trisperity Advisors is a fee-only financial planning and investment management firm. The firm does not earn sales commissions for selling annuities, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, limited partnerships, or other commissioned products. The firm is not affiliated with entities that sell financial products or securities. No commissions in any form are accepted for investments. No finder’s fees are accepted. Investment advice is an integral part of financial planning. In addition, Trisperity Advisors advises clients regarding cash flow, college planning, retirement planning, tax planning and estate planning. Investment advice is provided, with the client making the final decision on investment selection, unless otherwise specified in writing. Trisperity Advisors does not act as a custodian of client assets. The client always maintains asset control. Trisperity Advisors places trades for clients under a limited power of attorney. A written evaluation of each client's initial situation is provided to the client, often in the form of a net worth statement or Investment Policy Statement. Periodic reviews are also communicated to provide reminders of the specific courses of action that need to be taken. More frequent reviews occur but are not necessarily communicated to the client unless immediate changes are recommended. Other professionals (e.g., lawyers, accountants, insurance agents, etc.) are engaged directly by the client on an as-needed basis. Conflicts of interest will be disclosed to the client in the unlikely event they should occur. The initial meeting, which may be by telephone, is free of charge and is considered an exploratory interview to determine the extent to which financial planning and investment management may be beneficial to the client.

Types of Agreements
The following agreements define the typical client relationships.
Financial Planning Agreement
A financial plan is designed to help the client with all aspects of financial planning without ongoing investment management after the financial plan is completed. The financial plan may include, but is not limited to: a net worth statement; a cash flow statement; a review of investment accounts, including reviewing asset allocation and providing repositioning recommendations; strategic tax planning; a review of retirement accounts and plans including recommendations; a review of insurance policies and recommendations for changes, if necessary; one or more retirement scenarios; estate planning review and recommendations; and education planning with funding recommendations. Detailed investment advice and specific recommendations are provided as part of a financial plan. Implementation of the recommendations is at the discretion of the client.
Advisory Service Agreement
Most clients choose to have Trisperity Advisors manage their assets in order to obtain ongoing in-depth advice and life planning. When in-depth advice and life planning is requested, all aspects of the client’s financial affairs are reviewed, including those of their children. Realistic and measurable goals are set and objectives to reach those goals are defined. As goals and objectives change over time, suggestions are made and implemented on an ongoing basis. The scope of work and fee for an Advisory Service Agreement is provided to the client in writing prior to the start of the relationship. An Advisory Service Agreement could include: cash flow management; insurance review; investment management (including performance reporting); education planning; retirement planning; and estate planning, as well as the implementation of recommendations within each area. Although the Advisory Service Agreement is an ongoing agreement and constant adjustments are required, the length of service to the client is at the client’s discretion. The client or the investment manager may terminate an Agreement by written notice to the other party. At termination, fees will be billed on a pro rata basis for the portion of the quarter completed. The portfolio value at the completion of the prior full billing quarter is used as the basis for the fee computation, adjusted for the number of days during the billing quarter prior to termination.
Retainer Agreement
In some circumstances, a Retainer Agreement is executed in lieu of an Advisory Service Agreement when it is more appropriate to work on a fixed- fee basis.
Hourly Planning Engagements
Trisperity Advisors provides hourly planning services for clients who need advice on a limited scope of work.
Asset Management
Assets can be invested in no-load or load-waived mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, usually through fund companies. Fund companies charge each fund shareholder an investment management fee that is disclosed in the fund prospectus. Stocks and bonds may be purchased or sold through the custodian of a client account when appropriate. The custodian firm charges a fee for stock and bond trades. Trisperity Advisors does not receive any compensation, in any form, from fund companies. Investments may also include: equities (stocks), warrants, corporate debt securities, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, municipal securities, investment company securities (variable life insurance, variable annuities, and mutual funds shares), U. S. government securities, options contracts, futures contracts, interests in partnerships, and initial public offerings (IPOs).
Termination of Agreement
A Client may terminate any of the aforementioned agreements at any time by notifying Trisperity Advisors in writing and paying the rate for the time spent on the investment advisory engagement prior to notification of termination. If the client made an advance payment, Trisperity Advisors will refund any unearned portion of the advance payment.
