Item 4: Advisory Business
Sanctuary Wealth Advisors LLC DBA Sanctuary Advisors (hereinafter “SWA”) is a
Limited Liability Company organized in the State of Colorado. The firm was formed in
September 2016, and the principal owner is Martin Joel Erzinger.
Portfolio Management Services
SWA offers ongoing non-discretionary portfolio management services based on the
individual goals, objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance of each client. SWA creates
an Investment Strategy for each client, which outlines the client’s current situation
(income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and then constructs a plan to aid in the
selection of a portfolio that matches each client's specific situation. Portfolio management
services include, but are not limited to, the following:
•
•
•
Determine Investment strategy
Asset allocation
Assessment of risk tolerance
•
•
•
Personal investment policy
Asset selection
Regular portfolio monitoring
SWA evaluates the current investments of each client with respect to their risk tolerance
levels and time horizon. Risk tolerance levels are documented in the Investment Policy
Statement, which is given to each client.
SWA seeks to provide that investment decisions are made in accordance with the
fiduciary duties owed to its accounts and without consideration of SWA’s economic,
investment or other financial interests. To meet its fiduciary obligations, SWA attempts to
avoid, among other things, investment or trading practices that systematically advantage
or disadvantage certain client portfolios, and accordingly, SWA’s policy is to seek fair and
equitable allocation of investment opportunities/transactions among its clients to avoid
favoring one client over another over time. It is SWA’s policy to allocate investment
opportunities and transactions it identifies as being appropriate and prudent among its
clients on a fair and equitable basis over time.
SWA generally limits its investment advice to mutual funds, fixed income securities,
insurance products including annuities, equities, ETFs and private placements. SWA may
use other securities as well to help diversify a portfolio when applicable.
SWA will tailor a program for each individual client. This will include an interview
session to get to know the client’s specific needs and requirements as well as a plan that
will be executed by SWA on behalf of the client. SWA may use “model allocations”
together with a specific set of recommendations for each client based on their personal
restrictions, needs, and targets. Clients may impose restrictions in investing in certain
securities or types of securities in accordance with their values or beliefs, which
restrictions will be documented in the Investment Policy Statement. However, if the
restrictions prevent SWA from properly servicing the client account, or if the restrictions
would require SWA to deviate from its standard suite of services, SWA reserves the right
to end the relationship. SWA does not participate in any wrap fee programs.

SWA has the following assets under management:
Discretionary Amounts: Non-discretionary Amounts: Date Calculated:

$242,073,581

Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Portfolio Management Fees
Basic fee is 60 basis points (0.6%). Fees may be negotiable.
Fees are paid quarterly in advance. The advisory fee is calculated using the value of the
assets on the last business day of the prior billing period. Refunds for fees paid in advance
will be returned within fourteen days to the client via check, or return deposit back into
the client’s account. For all asset-based fees paid in advance, the fee refunded will be equal
to the balance of the fees collected in advance minus the daily rate* times the number of
days elapsed in the billing period up to and including the day of termination. (*The daily
rate is calculated by dividing the annual asset-based fee rate by 365.)
Asset-based portfolio management fees are either (i) withdrawn directly from the client's
accounts with client's written authorization or (ii) invoiced and billed directly to the client;
clients may select the method in which they are billed. For fees deducted directly from
client accounts, in states that require it, SWA will:
(A) Possess written authorization from the client to deduct advisory fees from an
account held by a qualified custodian.
(B) Utilize a custodian that sends at least quarterly statements reflecting all additions
and deductions, including the amount of advisory fees.
(C) Send the qualified custodian written notice of the amount of the fee to be deducted
and send the client a written invoice upon or prior to fee deduction itemizing the fee,
including the formula used to calculate the fee, the time period covered by the fee, and
the amount of assets under management on which the fee was based.
These fees are generally negotiable and the final fee schedule is attached as Exhibit II of
the Investment Advisory Contract. Clients may terminate the agreement without penalty
for a full refund of SWA's fees within five business days of signing the Investment
Advisory Contract. Thereafter, clients may terminate the Investment Advisory Contract
immediately upon written notice.
Clients are responsible for the payment of all third party fees (i.e. custodian fees,
brokerage fees, mutual fund fees, transaction fees, etc.). Those fees are separate and
distinct from the fees and expenses charged by SWA. Please see Item 12 of this brochure
regarding broker-dealer/custodian.
3
Outside Compensation for the Sale of Securities to Clients
Martin Joel Erzinger and Karen Marie Jorgensen are registered representative of a broker-
dealer and Martin Joel Erzinger is an insurance agent and in these roles, accepts
compensation for the sale of investment products to SWA clients.
Supervised persons may accept compensation for the sale of investment products,
including asset based sales charges or service fees from the sale of mutual funds to SWA's
clients. This presents a conflict of interest and gives the supervised person an incentive to
recommend products based on the compensation received rather than on the client’s
needs. When recommending the sale of investment products for which the supervised
persons receives compensation, SWA will document the conflict of interest in the client
file and inform the client of the conflict of interest.
Clients always have the right to purchase SWA recommended products through other
brokers or agents that are not affiliated with SWA.
Commissions are not SWA’s primary source of compensation for advisory services.
Advisory fees that are charged to clients are not reduced to offset the commissions or
markups on investment products recommended to clients.
Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
SWA does not accept performance-based fees or other fees based on a share of capital gains on or
capital appreciation of the assets of a client.
4
Item 7: Types of Clients
SWA generally provides advisory services to the following types of clients:
❖
❖
❖
High-Net-Worth Individuals
Corporations or Business Entities
Endowment Foundations
There is an account minimum of $1,000,000, which may be waived by SWA in its discretion.
Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, & Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies
Methods of Analysis
SWA’s methods of analysis include Charting analysis, Cyclical analysis, Fundamental
analysis, Modern portfolio theory, Quantitative analysis and Technical analysis.
Charting analysis involves the use of patterns in performance charts. SWA uses this
technique to search for patterns used to help predict favorable conditions for buying
and/or selling a security.
Cyclical analysis involves the analysis of business cycles to find favorable conditions for
buying and/or selling a security.
Fundamental analysis involves the analysis of financial statements, the general financial
health of companies, and/or the analysis of management or competitive advantages.
Modern portfolio theory is a theory of investment that attempts to maximize portfolio
expected return for a given amount of portfolio risk, or equivalently minimize risk for a
given level of expected return, each by carefully choosing the proportions of various asset.
Quantitative analysis deals with measurable factors as distinguished from qualitative
considerations such as the character of management or the state of employee morale, such
as the value of assets, the cost of capital, historical projections of sales, and so on.
Technical analysis involves the analysis of past market data; primarily price and volume.
Investment Strategies
SWA uses long term trading and margin transactions.
Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared
to bear.
5
Material Risks Involved
Methods of Analysis
Charting analysis strategy involves using and comparing various charts to predict long
and short term performance or market trends. The risk involved in using this method is
that only past performance data is considered without using other methods to crosscheck
data. Using charting analysis without other methods of analysis would be making the
assumption that past performance will be indicative of future performance. This may not
be the case.
Cyclical analysis assumes that the markets react in cyclical patterns which, once
identified, can be leveraged to provide performance. The risks with this strategy are two-
fold: 1) the markets do not always repeat cyclical patterns; and 2) if too many investors
begin to implement this strategy, then it changes the very cycles these investors are trying
to exploit.
Fundamental analysis concentrates on factors that determine a company’s value and
expected future earnings. This strategy would normally encourage equity purchases in
stocks that are undervalued or priced below their perceived value. The risk assumed is
that the market will fail to reach expectations of perceived value.
Modern portfolio theory assumes that investors are risk averse, meaning that given two
portfolios that offer the same expected return, investors will prefer the less risky one.
Thus, an investor will take on increased risk only if compensated by higher expected
returns. Conversely, an investor who wants higher expected returns must accept more
risk. The exact trade-off will be the same for all investors, but different investors will
evaluate the trade-off differently based on individual risk aversion characteristics. The
implication is that a rational investor will not invest in a portfolio if a second portfolio
exists with a more favorable risk-expected return profile – i.e., if for that level of risk an
alternative portfolio exists which has better expected returns.
Quantitative analysis Investment strategies using quantitative models may perform
differently than expected as a result of, among other things, the factors used in the models,
the weight placed on each factor, changes from the factors’ historical trends, and technical
issues in the construction and implementation of the models.
Technical analysis attempts to predict a future stock price or direction based on market
trends. The assumption is that the market follows discernible patterns and if these
patterns can be identified then a prediction can be made. The risk is that markets do not
always follow patterns and relying solely on this method may not take into account new
patterns that emerge over time.
6
Investment Strategies
SWA's use of margin transactions generally holds greater risk, and clients should be aware
that there is a material risk of loss using any of those strategies.
Long term trading is designed to capture market rates of both return and risk. Due to its
nature, the long-term investment strategy can expose clients to various types of risk that
will typically surface at various intervals during the time the client owns the investments.
These risks include but are not limited to inflation (purchasing power) risk, interest rate
risk, economic risk, market risk, and political/regulatory risk.
Margin transactions use leverage that is borrowed from a brokerage firm as collateral.
When losses occur, the value of the margin account may fall below the brokerage firm’s
threshold thereby triggering a margin call. This may force the account holder to either
allocate more funds to the account or sell assets on a shorter time frame than desired.
Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared
to bear.
Risks of Specific Securities Utilized
SWA's use of margin transactions generally holds greater risk of capital loss. Clients
should be aware that there is a material risk of loss using any investment strategy. The
investment types listed below are not guaranteed or insured by the FDIC or any other
government agency.
Mutual Funds: Investing in mutual funds carries the risk of capital loss and thus you may
lose money investing in mutual funds. All mutual funds have costs that lower investment
returns. The funds can be of bond “fixed income” nature (lower risk) or stock “equity”
nature.
Equity investment generally refers to buying shares of stocks in return for receiving a
future payment of dividends and/or capital gains if the value of the stock increases. The
value of equity securities may fluctuate in response to specific situations for each
company, industry conditions and the general economic environments.
Fixed income investments generally pay a return on a fixed schedule, though the amount
of the payments can vary. This type of investment can include corporate and government
debt securities, leveraged loans, high yield, and investment grade debt and structured
products, such as mortgage and other asset-backed securities, although individual bonds
may be the best known type of fixed income security. In general, the fixed income market
is volatile and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond
prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term
securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk, liquidity risk, call risk, and
credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. The risk of default on treasury
inflation protected/inflation linked bonds is dependent upon the U.S. Treasury defaulting
(extremely unlikely); however, they carry a potential risk of losing share price value, albeit
7
rather minimal. Risks of investing in foreign fixed income securities also include the
general risk of non-U.S. investing described below.
Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs): An ETF is an investment fund traded on stock exchanges,
similar to stocks. Investing in ETFs carries the risk of capital loss (sometimes up to a 100%
loss in the case of a stock holding bankruptcy). Areas of concern include the lack of
transparency in products and increasing complexity, conflicts of interest and the
possibility of inadequate regulatory compliance.
Annuities are a retirement product for those who may have the ability to pay a premium
now and want to guarantee they receive certain monthly payments or a return on
investment later in the future. Annuities are contracts issued by a life insurance company
designed to meet requirement or other long-term goals. An annuity is not a life insurance
policy. Variable annuities are designed to be long-term investments, to meet retirement
and other long-range goals. Variable annuities are not suitable for meeting short-term
goals because substantial taxes and insurance company charges may apply if you
withdraw your money early. Variable annuities also involve investment risks, just as
mutual funds do.
Private placements carry a substantial risk as they are subject to less regulation than are
publicly offered securities, the market to resell these assets under applicable securities
laws may be illiquid, due to restrictions, and the liquidation may be taken at a substantial
discount to the underlying value or result in the entire loss of the value of such assets.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investing in securities involves a
risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared to bear.
Item 9: Disciplinary Information
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) determined that Mr. Erzinger did not
notify his employing member firm with information necessary to amend his Form U4 on a timely
basis about charges (later dismissed) related to a traffic accident. This action resulted in a
suspension in all capacities from FINRA for 30 days beginning on 09/06/2011 and ending on
10/05/2011. Mr. Erzinger was also fined $20,000.00 of which he paid in full on 09/09/2011.

through a representative of SWA in such individual’s capacity as a registered representative or

Martin Joel Erzinger is an independent licensed insurance agent, and from time to time, will offer

commission or other compensation and involve a conflict of interest, as commissionable products
conflict with the fiduciary duties of a registered investment adviser. SWA always acts in the best
interest of the client; including the sale of commissionable products to advisory clients. Clients
always have the right to utilize or decline the services of any representative of SWA in connection
with such individual's activities outside of SWA.

Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client
Transactions and Personal Trading
SWA has a written Code of Ethics that covers the following areas:
Insider Trading
• Prohibited Purchases and Sales
• Compliance Procedures
•
• Personal Securities Transactions
• Exempted Transactions
• Prohibited Activities
• Conflicts of Interest
• Gifts and Entertainment
• Confidentiality
• Service on a Board of Directors
• Compliance with Laws and Regulations
• Procedures and Reporting
• Certification of Compliance
• Reporting Violations
• Compliance Officer Duties
• Training and Education
• Recordkeeping
• Annual Review
• Sanctions
SWA will do everything to mitigate conflicts of interest by (i) disclosing to the client any conflict
of interest and (ii) always acting in the best interest of the client consistent with its fiduciary duty.
ALL PROSPECTIVE AND CURRENT CLIENTS HAVE A RIGHT TO SEE THIS CODE OF
ETHICS. FOR A COPY OF THE CODE OF ETHICS, PLEASE ASK US AT ANY TIME.
SWA does not recommend that clients buy or sell any security in which a related person to SWA
or SWA has a material financial interest.
From time to time, representatives of SWA may buy or sell securities for themselves that they
also recommend to clients at or around the same time as clients. This may provide an opportunity
for representatives of SWA to buy or sell securities before or after recommending securities to
clients resulting in representatives profiting off the recommendations they provide to clients.
Such transactions create a conflict of interest; however, SWA will never engage in trading that
operates to the client’s disadvantage if representatives of SWA buy or sell securities at or around
the same time as clients.
When we provide investment advice to you regarding your retirement plan account or
individual retirement account (IRA), 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
10
with your interests, so we operate under a special rule that requires us to act in your best
interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. Under this special rule’s provisions, 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.
* It should be noted that the fiduciary duties enumerated above do not differ from those we
observe in all our advisory activities.
11
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
Custodians/broker-dealers will be recommended based on SWA’s duty to seek “best
execution,” which is the obligation to seek execution of securities transactions for a client
on the most favorable terms for the client under the circumstances. Clients will not
necessarily pay the lowest commission or commission equivalent, and SWA may also
consider the market expertise and research access provided by the broker-
dealer/custodian, including but not limited to access to written research, oral
communication with analysts, admittance to research conferences and other resources
provided by the brokers that may aid in SWA's research efforts.
SWA will require clients to use Pershing Advisor Solutions LLC.
Research and Other Soft-Dollar Benefits
While SWA has no formal soft dollars program in which soft dollars are used to pay for
third party services, SWA may receive research, products, or other services from
custodians and broker-dealers in connection with client securities transactions (“soft
dollar benefits”). SWA may enter into soft-dollar arrangements consistent with (and not
outside of) the safe harbor contained in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. There can be no assurance that any particular client will benefit from
soft dollar research, whether or not the client’s transactions paid for it, and SWA does not
seek to allocate benefits to client accounts proportionate to any soft dollar credits
generated by the accounts. SWA benefits by not having to produce or pay for the research,
products or services, and SWA will have an incentive to recommend a custodian or
broker-dealer based on receiving research or services. This constitutes a conflict of
interest; however, this conflict is mitigated because soft dollar benefits can help SWA in
its portfolio management and SWA will always act in the best interest of its clients,
including in connection with selecting custodians and/or broker-dealers.
Brokerage for Client Referrals
SWA receives no referrals from a broker-dealer or third party in exchange for using that
broker-dealer or third party.
Clients Directing Which Custodian to Use
SWA will require clients to use Pershing Advisor Solutions LLC. Not all advisers require
clients to use a particular custodian.
Aggregating (Block) Trading for Multiple Client Accounts
If SWA buys or sells the same securities on behalf of more than one client, then it may (but
would be under no obligation to) aggregate or bunch such securities in a single transaction
for multiple clients in order to seek more favorable prices, lower brokerage commissions,
or more efficient execution. In such case, SWA would place an aggregate order with the
broker on behalf of all such clients in order to ensure fairness for all clients; provided,
12
however, that trades would be reviewed periodically to ensure that accounts are not
systematically disadvantaged by this policy. SWA would determine the appropriate
number of shares and select the appropriate brokers consistent with its duty to seek best
execution, except for those accounts with specific brokerage direction (if any).
Item 13: Review of Accounts
All client accounts for SWA's advisory services provided on an ongoing basis are reviewed at
least Monthly by Martin J Erzinger, Founding Member, with regard to clients’ respective
investment policies and risk tolerance levels. All accounts at SWA are assigned to this reviewer.
Reviews may be triggered by material market, economic or political events, or by changes in
client's financial situations (such as retirement, termination of employment, physical move, or
inheritance).
Each client will receive a quarterly statement from the custodian. SWA also provides quarterly
reports from outside sources, Albridge and Morningstar where appropriate.
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
SWA does not receive any economic benefit, directly or indirectly from any third party for advice
rendered to SWA's clients.
SWA does not directly or indirectly compensate any person who is not advisory personnel for
client referrals.
Item 15: Custody
SWA does not have physical custody of client funds or securities. However, when advisory fees
are deducted directly from client accounts at client's custodian, SWA will be deemed to have
limited custody of a client's assets. Please see Item 5 above for additional details regarding
withdrawal of advisory fees. Clients will receive all account statements and billing invoices that
are required in each jurisdiction, and they should carefully review those statements for accuracy.
Item 16: Investment Discretion
SWA does not have discretion over client accounts at any time.
13
Item 17: Voting Client Securities (Proxy Voting)
SWA will not ask for, nor accept voting authority for client securities. Clients will receive proxies
directly from the issuer of the security or the custodian. Clients should direct all proxy questions
to the issuer of the security.
Item 18: Financial Information
SWA neither requires nor solicits prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees per client, six months
or more in advance, and therefore is not required to include a balance sheet with this brochure.
Neither SWA nor its management has any financial condition that is likely to reasonably impair
SWA’s ability to meet contractual commitments to clients.
SWA has not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition in the last ten years.
