CONSOLIDATED REPORTS

You should receive at least quarterly statements directly from the custodian that holds and maintains your investment assets. We encourage clients to carefully review such statements and compare such official custodial records to any report that we provide which consolidates assets or accounts, which we refer to as “consolidated reports” or is viewed via a third party software, such as within the XML Vault or Wealth Portal.  Statement formatting from different custodians typically varies based on their accounting procedures, reporting dates, or valuation methodologies of certain securities. Reports consolidating accounts are use primarily for planning purposes and estimates, and are not intended to be a replacement for custodial account statements. Please read the Consolidated Reports Disclosure when reviewing reports provided by us.

We want you to understand these documents and answer any questions you may have. If you would like to receive a document in a larger font or would like to go through a document with someone verbally, please contact us.
