Item 4 - Advisory Business
General Information
Generations Wealth, LLC (Generations Wealth) has been in business since 2006 and provides a
variety of investment, income tax, financial planning, and family office services. These are described
in more detail below.
Pamela Clark is the principal owner of Generations Wealth. Please see Exhibit A - Brochure

discretionary basis and $0 on a non-discretionary basis.
SERVICES PROVIDED
Investment Services
Investment Plan
Generations Wealth will prepare an Investment Plan that incorporates the client’s financial
circumstances, risk capacity, and risk tolerance with their investment goals. This plan includes a
financial outline tailored to the clients “Financial Profile” or “Profile” and an “Investment Policy
Statement” or “IPS” to describe their investment objectives and guidelines.
The Financial Profile is a reflection of the client’s current financial picture and a look to the future
investment goals of the client. The IPS outlines the investment strategy and types of investments
Generations Wealth recommends in meeting those goals.
The client is under no obligation to act upon any of the recommendations made by Generations Wealth
under an Investment Plan or to engage the services of Generations Wealth or any recommended
professional.
Investment Retainer
Upon completion of the Investment Plan, the client may choose to retain Generations Wealth on an
ongoing basis. The Investment Retainer may include:
Investment Plan implementation
•
• Portfolio management
• Portfolio accounting
• Performance and allocation reporting
• Cashiering and transfers
• Account administrative services
Under the Investment Retainer, the Profile and IPS are discussed regularly with the client, which does
not necessarily result in a written document. The Investment Plan will be updated from time to time
when requested by the client, or when determined to be necessary or advisable by Generations Wealth
based on updates to the client’s financial or other circumstances.
Page 3
Generations Wealth’s investment services are largely based on academic studies and research that
indicates that markets are efficient and advocates the benefits of using a passive, index-oriented
approach to investing. For additional information about how Generations Wealth invests, please see
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss.
To implement the client’s IPS, Generations Wealth will manage the client’s investment portfolio on a
discretionary basis. As a discretionary investment adviser, Generations Wealth will have the authority
to supervise and direct the portfolio without prior consultation with the client.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, clients may impose certain written restrictions on Generations Wealth
in the management of their investment portfolios, such as prohibiting the inclusion of certain types of
investments in an investment portfolio or prohibiting the sale of certain investments held in the
account at the commencement of the relationship. Each client should note, however, that restrictions
imposed by a client may adversely affect the composition and performance of the client’s investment
portfolio. Each client should also note that his or her investment portfolio is treated individually by
giving consideration to each purchase or sale for the client’s account. For these and other reasons,
performance of client investment portfolios within the same investment objectives, goals and/or risk
tolerance may differ, and clients should not expect that the composition or performance of their
investment portfolios would necessarily be consistent with similar clients of Generations Wealth.

Item 5 - Fees and Compensation
General Fee Information
Fees paid to Generations Wealth are exclusive of all custodial and transaction costs paid to the client’s
custodians, brokers or other third- party consultants. Please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices for
additional information. Fees paid to Generations Wealth are also separate and distinct from the fees
and expenses charged by mutual funds, exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) or other investment pools to
their shareholders (generally including a management fee and fund expenses, as described in each
fund’s prospectus or offering materials). The client should review all fees charged by funds, brokers,
Generations Wealth and others to fully understand the total amount of fees paid by the client for
investment and financial-related services (see also Other Portfolio Expenses below).
Page 5
Either Generations Wealth or the client may terminate the Retainer Agreement at any time, subject to
any written notice requirements in the Agreement. In the event of termination, any paid but unearned
fees will be promptly refunded to the client based on the number of days that the services were
provided, and any fees due to Generations Wealth from the client will be invoiced or deducted from
the client’s account prior to termination.
Fee Description
As a fee-only firm, fees from clients are the sole source of Generations Wealth’s compensation. Our
retainer fees are calculated based on either a percentage of assets under management (AUM) or a
percentage of assets under advisement (AUA) according to the engaged service. We continue to honor
grandfathered relationships where negotiated fees were fixed based on individually tailored scope of
services. For certain other type of work, such as annual tax compliance services, we require a
separate engagement agreement and quoted fee ranging from $1,000 - $20,000.
Generations Wealth will charge a one-time setup fee of between $1,500 and $6,000 depending on the
type of planning service chosen. For clients who choose an ongoing retainer relationship with us, the
planning fee is also called a setup fee because it is required at the onset of a new client relationship.
The planning (or setup) fees may include an Income Tax Plan and/or Investment Plan and/or a
Financial Plan. The planning (or setup) fees are paid half in advance and the balance following the
completion of the work.
Investment Management Retainer Services
The fee is calculated as a percentage of assets according to the schedule below:
Portfolio Value
Annual Advisory Fee
Quarterly Advisory Fee
First $10,000,000
Above $10,000,000
0.75%
0.375%
0.1875%
.09375%
Asset totals below the suggested minimum of $1,000,000 are subject to a minimum annual fee of
$7,500 which may result in an annual rate in excess of 1.00%.
Family Office Retainer Services
The family office services fee is a separate negotiated fee based on a percentage of total assets
generally reflected on the client’s net worth statement. Fees can range from 15 to 45 bps (0.15% to
0.45%) of assets under advisement (AUA), depending on the complexity and breadth of services
chosen. The AUA based fee is calculated and fixed for a one year period after which it is reassessed and
potentially adjusted to reflect any changes in the clients asset base or service requirements for the
upcoming year.
Clients who engage in Family Office Services are subjected to a combined AUM and AUA minimum
annual fee of $50,000.
Generations Wealth may, at its discretion, reduce its minimum fee or charge a reduced advisory fee
based on specific circumstances.
Fee Invoice
For Investment Management Retainer Services (AUM), the client will be charged at the end of each
calendar quarter for advisory services rendered. Fees are charged based on a percentage of assets
under management, billed in arrears (at the end of the billing period) on a quarterly calendar basis
Page 6
and calculated based on the average daily balance of the account for the preceding calendar quarter.
Fees are prorated (based on the number of days service is provided during the initial billing period)
for your account opened at any time other than the beginning of the billing period. The average daily
balance is calculated using an industry standard third-party software application. The average daily
closing balance calculation for the previous quarter is then multiplied by the annual management fee.
The computed annual management fee (Avg Daily Balance * Management Fee) is divided by 4 and then
applied for that quarter. Invoices are posted to Generations Wealth online portal along with quarterly
performance reports.
For Family Office Retainer Clients (AUA), the client will be charged at the end of the calendar quarter
for advisory services rendered. Fees are calculated using the negotiated AUA bps and asset values
based on the initial or most recent year end net worth statement. Adviser prepares and client reviews
asset values as noted on year-end net worth statements. Year-end values are gathered from a variety
of sources including custodial statements and management assessment of illiquid assets.
Other Portfolio Expenses
Transaction Costs
Generations Wealth recommends a qualified third-party custodian to hold assets for clients.
Clients are charged for all for custodial expenses (brokerage commissions or transaction fees)
incurred on their behalf. These fees are levied by the custodian and charged directly to the
client’s account. Generations Wealth does not receive any income from custodial fees. Fees
charged for buying and selling mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) generally range
between no cost and $20 per trade but may be higher.
Expense Ratios
All mutual funds and ETFs include a management fee paid to the investment manager of the
fund. These fees and expenses are described in each fund’s prospectus and generally include a
management fee, other fund expenses and a possible distribution fee. Generations Wealth
exclusively recommends low-cost, no-load funds. The current average-weighted expense ratio
for a typical Generations Wealth portfolio approximates 0.26%.
Generations Wealth may, at its sole discretion, make exceptions to the foregoing or negotiate special
fee arrangements where Generations Wealth deems it appropriate under the circumstances.
Therefore, clients with similar assets under management and investment objectives may pay
significantly higher or lower fees than other clients.
Item 6 - Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Generations Wealth does not have any performance-based fee arrangements. “Side-by-Side
Management” refers to a situation in which the same firm manages accounts that are billed based on
a percentage of assets under management and at the same time manages other accounts for which
fees are assessed on a performance fee basis. Because Generations Wealth has no performance-based
fee accounts, it has no side-by-side management.
Item 7 - Types of Clients
Description
Generations Wealth generally serves individuals (high net worth to ultra-high net worth), families,
trusts and institutional relationships (corporations, foundations, and qualified plans).
Page 7
Account Minimums
Generations Wealth provides suggested account minimums for each service level; however, we allow
clients to determine whether our services are appropriate for their needs. Therefore, Generations
Wealth does not impose a minimum investment net worth requirement for individuals seeking
services. However, portfolios below certain values are subject to a minimum fee. The minimum fee
may result in an annual rate in excess of the stated rate.
Item 8 - Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis
In accordance with the IPS, Generations Wealth client portfolios are generally comprised of passive
mutual funds offered by companies such as Dimensional Fund Advisors, Vanguard, and others, as well
as ETFs.
Mutual funds and ETFs are generally evaluated and selected based on a variety of criteria, including,
as applicable and without limitation: investment philosophy, expense ratio and other costs, tax
characteristics, risk exposures, fund manager reputation and history, and other factors.
Fixed income investments may be used primarily to diversify equity investment risk and volatility, but
also as a strategic investment, as an instrument to fulfill liquidity or income needs in a portfolio, or to
add a component of capital preservation. Generations Wealth will generally evaluate and select
individual bonds or bond funds based on a number of factors including, without limitation, credit risk,
term risk, and issuer or fund manager.
Investment Strategies
Generations Wealth’s strategic approach is to invest each portfolio in accordance with the IPS that has
been developed specifically for each client. Securities are purchased with the expectation that the
value of those securities will grow over a relatively long period of time, generally greater than one
year.
Generations Wealth will invest a client's assets based on the following principles:
• Markets are efficient and assets are fairly priced.
• Risk and Return are directly related. Priced risk factors determine expected return.
•
Investors should not expect to be compensated for taking risk that can be easily
reduced through diversification.
• Portfolio structure (asset allocation) is the primary determinant of performance for
a broadly diversified portfolio.
• Cost and performance are inversely related.
Generations Wealth does not engage in market forecasting, market timing, or stock picking.
Generations Wealth’s philosophy embraces the tenets of Modern Portfolio Theory, The Efficient
Markets Hypothesis, and the Fama/French 5-Factor Model. Generations Wealth believes an efficient
and cost-effective method of implementing a portfolio structured around priced risk factors is to use
passively managed funds. The use of actively managed funds is not recommended because these funds
may have holdings that vary across dimensions of risk, making portfolio structure difficult to maintain.
Generations Wealth’s goal is to capture market-driven returns commensurate with a client's chosen
level of risk. Generations Wealth should be judged by the ability to maintain a client's asset allocation
to its intended structure, avoid unnecessary cost and taxation, and by the quality of our investment
counsel.
Page 8
For ongoing monitoring and portfolio rebalancing, Generations Wealth reviews each client's portfolio
at least quarterly and rebalances their agreed-upon allocation on a contingent basis. In general,
contingent rebalancing relies on an event to trigger the process. That event is typically a cash deposit
or withdrawal or when a particular asset class deviates significantly from the intended target
percentage. "Significantly" most often means a deviation of 15% to 25% on a relative basis or 5% on
an absolute basis, but subject to the client's particular tax and risk circumstances. Generations Wealth
believes the purpose of rebalancing is to maintain portfolio structure, not to enhance returns, and that
performance is directly attributed to a client's exposure to risk. Rebalancing helps maintain consistent
risk exposures.
IRA Rollover Recommendations
For the purpose of complying with the DOL's Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2020-02 ("PTE 2020-
02"), when applicable, we are providing the following acknowledgment to you. When we provide
investment advice to you regarding your retirement plan account or individual retirement account,
we are fiduciaries within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. The
way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests, so we operate under an exemption
that requires us to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. Under exemption,
we must:
• Meet a professional standard of care when making investment recommendations (give
prudent advice);
• Never put our financial interests ahead of yours when making recommendations (give loyal
advice);
• Avoid misleading statements about conflicts of interest, fees, and investments;
• Follow policies and procedures designed to ensure that we give advice that is in your best
interest;
• Charge no more than is reasonable for our services; and
• Give you basic information about conflicts of interest.
We benefit financially from the rollover of your assets from a retirement account to an account that
we manage or provide investment advice, because the assets increase our assets under management
and, in turn, our advisory fees. As a fiduciary, we only recommend a rollover when we believe it is in
your best interest.
Risk of Loss
While Generations Wealth seeks to diversify clients’ investment portfolios across various asset classes
consistent with their IPS in an effort to reduce risk of loss, all investment portfolios are subject to risks.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that client investment portfolios will be able to fully meet their
investment objectives and goals, or that investments will not lose money. Below is a description of
several of the principal risks that client investment portfolios face.
Management Risks. While Generations Wealth manages client investment portfolios based on
Generations Wealth’s experience, research and proprietary methods, the value of client investment
portfolios will change daily based on the performance of the underlying securities in which they are
invested. Accordingly, client investment portfolios are subject to the risk that Generations Wealth
allocates client assets to individual securities and/or asset classes that are adversely affected by
unanticipated market movements, and the risk that Generations Wealth’s specific investment choices
Page 9
could underperform their relevant indexes.
Risks of Investments in Mutual Funds, ETFs, and Other Investment Pools. As described above,
Generations Wealth may invest client portfolios in mutual funds, ETFs and other investment pools
(“pooled investment funds”). Investments in pooled investment funds are generally less risky than
investing in individual securities because of their diversified portfolios; however, these investments
are still subject to risks associated with the markets in which they invest. In addition, pooled
investment funds’ success will be related to the skills of their managers and their performance in
managing their funds. Pooled investment funds are also subject to risks due to regulatory restrictions
applicable to registered investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Equity Market Risks. Generations Wealth will generally invest portions of client assets directly into
equity investments, primarily in pooled investment funds that invest in the stock market. As noted
above, while pooled investments have diversified portfolios that may make them less risky than
investments in individual securities, funds that invest in stocks and other equity securities are
nevertheless subject to the risks of the stock market. These risks include, without limitation, the risks
that stock values will decline due to daily fluctuations in the markets, and that stock values will decline
over longer periods (e.g., bear markets) due to general market declines in the stock prices for all
companies, regardless of any individual security’s prospects.
Fixed Income Risks. Generations Wealth may invest portions of client assets directly into fixed income
instruments, such as bonds and notes, or may invest in pooled investment funds that invest in bonds
and notes. While investing in fixed income instruments, either directly or through pooled investment
funds, is generally less volatile than investing in stock (equity) markets, fixed income investments
nevertheless are subject to risks. These risks include, without limitation, interest rate risks (risks that
changes in interest rates will devalue the investments), credit risks (risks of default by borrowers), or
maturity risk (risks that bonds or notes will change value from the time of issuance to maturity).
Foreign Securities Risks. Generations Wealth may invest portions of client assets into pooled
investment funds that invest internationally. While foreign investments are important to the
diversification of client investment portfolios, they carry risks that may be different from U.S.
investments. For example, foreign investments may not be subject to uniform audit, financial
reporting or disclosure standards, practices or requirements comparable to those found in the U.S.
Foreign investments are also subject to foreign withholding taxes and the risk of adverse changes in
investment or exchange control regulations. Finally, foreign investments may involve currency risk,
which is the risk that the value of the foreign security will decrease due to changes in the relative value
of the U.S. dollar and the security’s underlying foreign currency.
Legal and Regulatory Matters Risks. Legal developments which may adversely impact investing and
investment-related activities can occur at any time. “Legal Developments” means changes and other
developments concerning foreign, as well as US federal, state and local laws and regulations, including
adoption of new laws and regulations, amendment or repeal of existing laws and regulations, and
changes in enforcement or interpretation of existing laws and regulations by governmental regulatory
authorities and self-regulatory organizations (such as the SEC, the US Commodity Futures Trading
Commission, the Internal Revenue Service, the US Federal Reserve and the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority). Our management of accounts may be adversely affected by the legal and/or
regulatory consequences of transactions effected for the accounts. Accounts may also be adversely
affected by changes in the enforcement or interpretation of existing statutes and rules by
governmental regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations.
System Failures and Reliance on Technology Risks. Our investment strategies, operations, research,
communications, risk management, and back-office systems rely on technology, including hardware,
Page 10
software, telecommunications, internet-based platforms, and other electronic systems. Additionally,
parts of the technology used are provided by third parties and are, therefore, beyond our direct
control. We seek to ensure adequate backups of hardware, software, telecommunications, internet-
based platforms, and other electronic systems, when possible, but there is no guarantee that our
efforts will be successful. In addition, natural disasters, power interruptions and other events may
cause system failures, which will require the use of backup systems (off-site). To reduce the impact a
system failure may have, we continually evaluate our backup and disaster recovery systems and
perform periodic checks on the backup systems’ conditions and operations. Despite our monitoring,
hardware, telecommunications, or other electronic systems malfunctions may be unavoidable, and
result in consequences such as the inability to trade for or monitor client accounts and portfolios. If
such circumstances arise, the Investment Committee will consider appropriate measures for clients.
Cybersecurity Risk. A portfolio is susceptible to operational and information security risks due to the
increased use of the internet. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or
unintentional events. Cyberattacks include, but are not limited to, infection by computer viruses or
other malicious software code, gaining unauthorized access to systems, networks, or devices through
“hacking” or other means for the purpose of misappropriating assets or sensitive information,
corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cybersecurity failures or breaches by third-party
service providers may cause disruptions and impact on the service providers’ and our business
operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability to transact business, violations of
applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement,
or other compensation costs, and/or additional compliance costs. While we have established business
continuity plans and risk management systems designed to prevent or reduce the impact of such
cyberattacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems due in part to the everchanging
nature of technology and cyberattack tactics.
Pandemic Risks. The outbreak of the novel coronavirus rapidly became a pandemic and resulted in
disruptions to the economies of many nations, individual companies, and the markets in general, the
impact of which cannot necessarily be foreseen at the time. This created closed borders, quarantines,
supply chain disruptions and general anxiety, negatively impacting global markets in an unforeseeable
manner. The impact of the novel coronavirus and other such future infectious diseases in certain
regions or countries may be greater or less due to the nature or level of their public health response
or due to other factors. Health crises caused by the coronavirus outbreak and future infectious
diseases may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, and economic risks in certain countries.
The impact of such health crises may be quick, severe and of unknowable duration. These pandemics
and other epidemics and pandemics that may arise in the future could result in continued volatility in
the financial markets and could have a negative impact on investment performance.
As noted above, these risk factors are only the principal risks that we believe our clients’ investment
portfolios face, but it is not intended to be a complete list or explanation of the risks involved in an
investment strategy. Due to the dynamic nature of investments and markets, strategies may be subject
to additional and different risk factors not discussed above.
Item 9 - Disciplinary Information
Registered investment advisers are required to disclose all material facts regarding any legal or
disciplinary events that would be material to a client’s evaluation of Generations Wealth or the
integrity of Generations Wealth’s management. Generations Wealth has no disciplinary events to
report.
Page 11
Item 10 - Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Pamela Clark, Founder and Managing Member of Generations Wealth also serves as an outsourced
financial professional for New Vista Partners, LLC (“New Vista”). New Vista has previously been
recommended to clients and Ms. Clark’s role and personal stake, along with any real or penitential
conflicts associated with her role were clearly disclosed. New Vista is in the process of dissolving and
is no longer an investment option for new clients.1
Generations Wealth does not recommend or select other investment advisers for our clients and
receive compensation directly or indirectly from those advisers. In addition, Generations Wealth does
not have other business relationships with those advisers.
Item 11 - Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
Code of Ethics and Personal Trading
Generations Wealth has adopted a Code of Ethics (“the Code”), the full text of which is available to you
upon request. Generations Wealth’s Code has several goals. First, the Code is designed to assist
Generations Wealth in complying with applicable laws and regulations governing its investment
advisory business. Under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Generations Wealth owes fiduciary
duties to its clients. Pursuant to these fiduciary duties, the Code requires persons associated with
Generations Wealth (managers, officers and employees) to act with honesty, good faith and fair
dealing in working with clients. In addition, the Code prohibits such associated persons from trading
or otherwise acting on insider information.
Next, the Code sets forth guidelines for professional standards for Generations Wealth’s associated
persons. Under the Code’s Professional Standards, Generations Wealth expects its associated persons
to put the interests of its clients first, ahead of personal interests. In this regard, Generations Wealth
associated persons are not to take inappropriate advantage of their positions in relation to
Generations Wealth clients.
Third, the Code sets forth policies and procedures to monitor and review the personal trading
activities of associated persons. From time to time Generations Wealth’s associated persons may
invest in the same securities recommended to clients. Under its Code, Generations Wealth has adopted
procedures designed to reduce or eliminate conflicts of interest that this could potentially cause. The
Code’s personal trading policies include procedures for limitations on personal securities transactions
of associated persons, reporting and review of such trading and pre- clearance of certain types of
personal trading activities. These policies are designed to discourage and prohibit personal trading
that would disadvantage clients. The Code also provides for disciplinary action as appropriate for
violations.
Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
Because client accounts are invested almost exclusively in open-end mutual funds and ETFs, there is
little opportunity for a conflict of interest between personal trades by Generations Wealth’s associated
persons and trades in client accounts, even when such accounts invest in the same securities.
However, in the event of other identified potential trading conflicts of interest, Generations Wealth’s
goal is to place client interests first.
Consistent with the foregoing, Generations Wealth maintains policies regarding participation in initial
public offerings (“IPOs”) and private placements to comply with applicable laws and avoid conflicts
1 Ms. Clark has similar arrangements with Eurovillage, LLC and Soimeni Parc SA, both of which have been recently
dissolved.
Page 12
with client transactions. If an associated person of Generations Wealth wishes to participate in an IPO
or invest in a private placement, he or she must submit a pre-clearance request and obtain the
approval of the Chief Compliance Officer.
Finally, if associated persons trade with client accounts (i.e., in a bundled or aggregated trade), and
the trade is not filled in its entirety, the associated person’s shares will be removed from the block,
and the balance of shares will be allocated among client accounts in accordance with Generations
Wealth’s written policy.
Generations Wealth does not execute transactions on a principal or agency cross basis.
Donations to Charities: From time to time, Generations Wealth donates to charitable organizations
that are affiliated with clients, are supported by clients, and/or are supported by an individual
employed by one of our clients. In general, such donations are made in response to requests from
clients, or their personnel. Because Generations Wealth’s contributions could result in the
recommendation of Generations Wealth or its products, such contributions can raise a potential
conflict of interest. As a result, Generations Wealth reviews the dollar amount and frequency of
charitable contributions and requires that all contributions be made directly to the charitable
organization (normally a 501(c)(3) organization). No contribution will be made if the contribution
implies that continued or future business with Generations Wealth depends on making such
contribution.

When given discretion to select the brokerage firm that will execute orders in client accounts,
Generations Wealth seeks “best execution” for client trades, which is a combination of a number of
factors, including, without limitation, quality of execution, services provided and commission rates.
Therefore, Generations Wealth may use or recommend the use of brokers who do not charge the
lowest available commission in the recognition of research and securities transaction services, or
quality of execution. Research services received with transactions may include proprietary or third-
party research (or any combination) and may be used in servicing any or all of Generations Wealth’s
clients. Therefore, research services received may not be used for the account for which the particular
transaction was effected.
Generations Wealth recommends that clients establish brokerage accounts with Charles Schwab & Co.,
Inc. (“Schwab”) a FINRA-registered broker-dealer, member SIPC, as a qualified custodian to maintain
custody of clients’ assets. Generations Wealth may also effect trades for client accounts at Schwab, or
may in some instances, consistent with Generations Wealth’s duty of best execution and specific
agreement with each client, elect to execute trades elsewhere. Although Generations Wealth may
recommend that clients establish accounts at Schwab, it is ultimately the client’s decision to custody
assets with Schwab. Generations Wealth is independently owned and operated and is not affiliated
with Schwab.
Schwab provides Generations Wealth with access to their institutional trading, custody, reporting and
related services, which are typically not available to Schwab’s retail investors. Schwab also make
available various support services. Some of those services help Generations Wealth manage or
administer our clients’ accounts while others help Generations Wealth manage and grow our business.
These services generally are available to independent investment advisors on an unsolicited basis, at
no charge to them. These services are not soft dollar arrangements but are part of the institutional
platform offered by Schwab. Schwab’s brokerage services include the execution of securities
transactions, custody, research, and access to mutual funds and other investments that are otherwise
Page 13
generally available only to institutional investors or would require a significantly higher minimum
initial investment.
For Generations Wealth client accounts maintained in its custody, Schwab generally does not charge
separately for custody services but are compensated by account holders through commissions and
other transaction-related or asset-based fees for securities trades that are executed through the
Schwab or that settle into Schwab’s accounts. Schwab also makes available to Generations Wealth
other products and services that benefit Generations Wealth but may not directly benefit its clients’
accounts. Many of these products and services may be used to service all or some substantial number
of Generations Wealth accounts, including accounts not maintained at Schwab.
Schwab’s products and services that assist Generations Wealth in managing and administering clients’
accounts include software and other technology that (i) provide access to client account data (such as
trade confirmations and account statements); (ii) facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated
trade orders for multiple client accounts; (iii) provide pricing and other market data; (iv) facilitate
payment of Generations Wealth’s fees from its clients’ accounts; and (v) assist with back-office
functions, recordkeeping and client reporting.
Schwab also offers other services intended to help Generations Wealth manage and further develop
its business enterprise. These services may include: (i) technology compliance, legal and business
consulting; (ii) publications and conferences on practice management and business succession; and
(iii) access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants and insurance providers. The
Schwab may make available, arrange and/or pay third-party vendors for the types of services
rendered to Generations Wealth. may discount or waive fees they would otherwise charge for some of
these services or pay all or a part of the fees of a third-party providing these services to Generations
Wealth. Schwab may also provide other benefits such as educational events or occasional business
entertainment of Generations Wealth personnel. In evaluating whether to recommend that clients
custody their assets at Schwab, Generations Wealth may take into account the availability of some of
the foregoing products and services and other arrangements as part of the total mix of factors it
considers and not solely on the nature, cost or quality of custody and brokerage services provided by
Schwab, which may create a potential conflict of interest.
Directed Brokerage
Clients may direct Generations Wealth to use a particular broker for custodial or transaction services
on behalf of the client’s portfolio. In directed brokerage arrangements, the client is responsible for
negotiating the commission rates and other fees to be paid to the broker. Accordingly, a client who
directs brokerage should consider whether such designation may result in certain costs or
disadvantages to the client, either because the client may pay higher commissions or obtain less
favorable execution, or the designation limits the investment options available to the client.
The arrangements that Generations Wealth has with Schwab is designed to maximize efficiency and
to be cost effective. By directing brokerage arrangements, the client acknowledges that these
economies of scale and levels of efficiency are generally compromised when alternative brokers are
used. While every effort is made to treat clients fairly over time, the fact that a client chooses to use
the brokerage and/or custodial services of these alternative service providers can in fact result in a
certain degree of delay in executing trades for their account(s) and otherwise adversely affect
management of their account(s).
By directing Generations Wealth to use a specific broker or dealer, clients who are subject to ERISA
confirm and agree with Generations Wealth that they have the authority to make the direction, that
there are no provisions in any client or plan document which are inconsistent with the direction, that
the brokerage and other goods and services provided by the broker or dealer through the brokerage
Page 14
transactions are provided solely to and for the benefit of the client’s plan, plan participants and their
beneficiaries, that the amount paid for the brokerage and other services have been determined by the
client and the plan to be reasonable, that any expenses paid by the broker on behalf of the plan are
expenses that the plan would otherwise be obligated to pay, and that the specific broker or dealer is
not a party in interest of the client or the plan as defined under applicable ERISA regulations.
Aggregated Trade Policy
Generations Wealth typically directs trading in individual client accounts as and when trades are
appropriate based on the client’s IPS, without regard to activity in other client accounts. However,
from time to time, Generations Wealth may aggregate trades together for multiple client accounts,
most often when these accounts are being directed to sell the same securities. If such an aggregated
trade is not completely filled, Generations Wealth will allocate shares received (in an aggregated
purchase) or sold (in an aggregated sale) across participating accounts on a pro rata or other fair basis;
provided, however, that any participating accounts that are owned by Generations Wealth or its
officers, directors, or employees will be excluded first.
Administrative Trade Errors
From time-to-time, Generations Wealth may make an error in submitting a trade order on the client’s
behalf. Trading errors may include a number of situations, such as:
• The wrong security is bought or sold for a client,
• A security is bought instead of sold,
• A transaction is executed for the wrong account,
• Securities transactions are completed for a client that had a restriction on such security, or
• Securities are allocated to the wrong accounts.
When this occurs, Generations Wealth may place a correcting trade with the broker-dealer which has
custody of the client’s account. If an investment gain results from the corrective action, the gain will
remain in the client’s account unless it is legally not permissible for the client to retain the gain, or
Generations Wealth confers with the client and the client decides to forego the gain (e.g., due to tax
reasons). If a loss occurs due to our administrative trade error, Generations Wealth is responsible and
will pay for the loss to ensure that the client is made whole.
Note: To limit the respective administrative expenses and burden of processing small trade errors, it
should be noted some custodians (at their own discretion) may elect not to invoice Generations
Wealth if the trade error involves a de minimis dollar amount (usually less than $100). Generally, if
related trade errors result in both gains and losses in your account, they may be netted.
Schwab Advisor Services™ (formerly called Schwab Institutional) is Schwab’s business serving
independent investment advisory firms like us. Through Schwab Advisor Services, Charles Schwab &
Co. (CS&Co). provides us and our clients with access to its institutional brokerage services— trading,
custody, reporting, and related services—many of which are not typically available to CS&Co. retail
customers. However, certain retail customers may be able to get institutional brokerage services from
Schwab without going through us. CS&Co. also makes available various support services. Some of
those services help us manage or administer our clients’ accounts, while others help us manage and
grow our business. CS&Co.’s support services described below are generally available on an
unsolicited basis (we don’t have to request them) and at no charge to us. The availability to us of
CS&Co.’s products and services is not based on us giving particular investment advice, such as buying
particular securities for our clients. Here is a more detailed description of CS&Co.’s support services:
CS&Co.’s institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of investment products,
execution of securities transactions, and custody of client assets. The investment products available
Page 15
through Schwab include some to which we might not otherwise have access or that would require a
significantly higher minimum initial investment by our clients. CS&Co.’s services described in this
paragraph generally benefit the client and the client’s account. with CS&Co. CS&Co. also makes
available to us other products and services that benefit us but do not directly benefit the client or its
account. These products and services assist us in managing and administering our clients’ accounts
and operating our firm. They include investment research, both Schwab’s own and that of third
parties. We use this research to service all or some substantial number of our clients’ accounts,
including accounts not maintained at CS&Co. In addition to investment research, CS&Co. also makes
available software and other technology that:
1. provide access to client account data (such as duplicate trade confirmations and account
statements);
facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts;
facilitate payment of our fees from our clients’ accounts; and
2.
3. provide pricing and other market data;
4.
5. assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping, and client reporting.
CS&Co. also offers other services intended to help us manage and further develop our business
enterprise. These services include:
1. educational conferences and events;
2. technology and business consulting;
3. Consulting on legal and related compliance needs;
4. publications and conferences on practice management and business succession; and
5. access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants, and insurance providers.
CS&Co. provides some of these services itself. In other cases, it will arrange for third-party vendors to
provide the services to us. CS&Co. also discounts or waives its fees for some of these services or pays
all or a part of a third party’s fees. CS&Co. also provides us with other benefits such as occasional
business entertainment of our personnel. If you did not maintain your account with Schwab, we would
be required to pay for these services from our own resources. The availability of services from CS&Co.
benefits us because we do not have to produce or purchase them. We don’t have to pay for these
services, and they are not contingent upon us committing any specific amount of business to CS&Co.
in trading commissions or assets in custody. With respect to the Program, as described above under
Item 4 Advisory Business, we do not pay SPT fees for the Platform so long as we maintain $100 Million
in client assets in accounts at CS&Co. that are not enrolled in the Program. The fact that we receive
these benefits from Schwab is an incentive for us to require (in the case of using the Program) the use
of Schwab rather than making such a decision based exclusively on your interest in receiving the best
value in custody services and the most favorable execution of transactions. This is a conflict of interest.
We believe, however, that taken in the aggregate our selection of CS&Co. as custodian and broker is in
the best interests of our clients. It is primarily supported by the scope, quality, and price of CS&Co.’s
services and not Schwab’s services that benefit only us.
Item 13 - Review of Accounts
Managed portfolios are reviewed at least quarterly but may be reviewed more often if requested by
the client, upon receipt of information material to the management of the portfolio, or at any time such
review is deemed necessary or advisable by Generations Wealth. These factors generally include, but
are not limited to, the following: change in general client circumstances (marriage, divorce,
retirement); or economic, political or market conditions. All accounts are reviewed by Pamela Clark,
Generations Wealth’s Managing Member, or another Investment Adviser Representative on the team.
Page 16
Account custodians are responsible for providing monthly or quarterly account statements which
reflect the positions (and current pricing) in each account as well as transactions in each account,
including fees paid from an account. Account custodians also provide prompt confirmation of all
trading activity, and year-end tax statements, such as 1099 forms. In addition, Generations Wealth
provides at least a quarterly report for each managed portfolio. This written report normally includes
a summary of portfolio holdings and performance results. Additional reports are available at the
request of the client.
For those clients to whom Generations Wealth provides Investment Consulting and Reporting on Held-
Away Assets, consultations are conducted on an as needed or agreed upon basis. Consultations are
conducted by Pamela Clark, Managing Member, or another Investment Adviser Representative on the
team. Generations Wealth provides written portfolio reports on a quarterly basis or upon request,
depending on client preference.
When Generations Wealth provides separate financial planning and/or consulting services, reviews
are conducted on an as needed or agreed upon basis. Such reviews are conducted by one of
Generations Wealth’s investment adviser representatives or principals.
Item 14 - Client Referrals and Other Compensation
As noted above, Generations Wealth receives an economic benefit from Schwab in the form of support
products and services they make available to Generations Wealth and other independent investment
advisors whose clients maintain accounts at Schwab. You do not pay more for assets maintained at
Schwab as a result of these arrangements. However, we benefit from the arrangements because the
cost of these services would otherwise be borne directly by us. You should consider these conflicts of
interest when selecting a custodian. These products and services, how they benefit our firm, and the
related conflicts of interest are described in Item 12 - Brokerage Practices. The availability of
Schwab’s products and services to Generations Wealth is based solely on our participation in the
programs and not in the provision of any particular investment advice. Neither Schwab nor any other
party is paid to refer clients to Generations Wealth.
Item 15 - Custody
Schwab is the custodian of nearly all client accounts at Generations Wealth. From time to time
however, clients may select an alternate broker to hold accounts in custody. In any case, it is the
custodians’ responsibility to provide clients with confirmations of trading activity, tax forms and at
least quarterly account statements. Clients are advised to review this information carefully, and to
notify Generations Wealth of any questions or concerns. Clients are also asked to promptly notify
Generations Wealth if the custodian fails to provide statements on each account held.
Although Generations Wealth does not hold custody of any client funds or securities, Generations
Wealth are deemed to have limited custody of some of our clients’ funds or securities when the clients
authorize Generations Wealth to deduct our management fees directly from the client’s account. In
addition, Generations Wealth are also deemed to have custody of clients’ funds or securities when
clients have standing letters of authorizations (“SLOAs”) with their custodian to move money from a
client’s account to a third-party, and under that SLOA it authorizes Generations Wealth to designate
the amount or timing of transfers with the custodian. The SEC has set forth a set of standards intended
to protect client assets in such situations, which we follow.
Additionally, Generations Wealth will have access to username and password information for online
access to certain client accounts, primarily Family Office Retainer clients. Generations Wealth will
utilize this access to accounts for reporting purposes and report aggregation; in some cases, this access
Page 17
will be used to place buy and sell trades involving transactions needed for asset allocation conducted
with the client's knowledge and authority. While online access to these accounts may give Generations
Wealth the ability to withdraw funds or securities or transfer them to an account not in the client's
name, Generations Wealth will not and would not conduct such transactions without obtaining direct
authority from the client. Due to this authority, Generations Wealth have engaged an independent
accountant to conduct an unannounced annual audit on these accounts.
From time to time and in accordance with our agreement with clients, Generations Wealth will provide
additional reports. The account balances reflected on these reports should be compared to the
balances shown on the brokerage statements to ensure accuracy. At times there may be small
differences due to the timing of dividend reporting, pending trades or other similar issues.
Item 16 - Investment Discretion
As described in Item 4 - Advisory Business, Generations Wealth will accept clients on a discretionary
basis. For discretionary accounts, a Limited Power of Attorney (“LPOA”) is executed by the client, giving
Generations Wealth the authority to carry out various activities in the account, generally including the
following: trade execution; the ability to request checks on behalf of the client; and the withdrawal of
advisory fees directly from the account. Generations Wealth then directs investment of the client’s
portfolio using its discretionary authority. The client may limit the terms of the LPOA to the extent
consistent with the client’s investment advisory agreement with Generations Wealth and the
requirements of the client’s custodian.
Item 17 - Voting Client Securities
As a policy and in accordance with Generations Wealth’s client agreement, Generations Wealth does
not vote proxies related to securities held in client accounts. The custodian of the account will
normally provide proxy materials directly to the client. Clients may contact Generations Wealth with
questions relating to proxy procedures and proposals; however, Generations Wealth generally does
not research proxy proposals.
Item 18 - Financial Information
Generations Wealth does not require nor solicit prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees per client, six
months or more in advance, and therefore has no disclosure with respect to this item.
As an advisory firm that maintains discretionary authority for client accounts, Generations Wealth are
also required to disclose any financial condition that is reasonable likely to impair our ability to meet
our contractual obligations. Generations Wealth has no additional financial circumstances to report.
Generations Wealth has not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition at any time during the past ten
years.
