Description of Firm
Keebeck Wealth Management LLC is a registered investment adviser primarily based in Chicago, IL.
We are organized as a limited liability company ("LLC") under the laws of the State of Delaware. We
have been providing investment advisory services since July 2018. We are primarily owned by
Mr. Bruce Lee, Managing Member.
The following paragraphs describe our services and fees. Refer to the description of each investment
advisory service listed below for information on how we tailor our advisory services to your individual
needs. As used in this brochure, the words "we," "our," and "us" refer to Keebeck Wealth Management
LLC and the words "you," "your," and "client" refer to you as either a client or prospective client of our
firm.
Portfolio Management Services
We offer discretionary portfolio management services. Our investment advice is tailored to meet our
clients' needs and investment objectives. If you participate in our discretionary portfolio management
services, we require you to grant us discretionary authority to manage your account. Subject to a grant
of discretionary authorization, we have the authority and responsibility to formulate investment
strategies on your behalf. Discretionary authorization will allow us to determine the specific securities,
and the amount of securities, to be purchased or sold for your account without obtaining your approval
prior to each transaction. We will also have discretion over the broker or dealer to be used for
securities transactions, and over the commission rates to be paid. Discretionary authority is typically
granted by the investment advisory agreement you sign with our firm, a power of attorney, or trading
authorization forms. You may limit our discretionary authority (for example, limiting the types of
securities that can be purchased or sold for your account) by providing our firm with your restrictions
and guidelines in writing.
We may also offer non-discretionary portfolio management services. If you enter into non-discretionary
arrangements with our firm, we must obtain your approval prior to executing any transactions on behalf
of your account. You have an unrestricted right to decline to implement any advice provided by our firm
on a non-discretionary basis.
We have entered into a contractual relationship with Dynasty Financial Partners, LLC ("Dynasty"),
which provides our firm with operational and back office support including access to a network of
service providers. Through the Dynasty network of service providers, we may receive preferred pricing
on trading technology, reporting, custody, brokerage, compliance and other related services. Dynasty
charges a "Platform Fee," for which, unless otherwise disclosed, you will be charged, separate from
and in addition to our annual investment management fee described in Item 5 below. In
addition, Dynasty's subsidiary, Dynasty Wealth Management, LLC ("DWM"), a registered investment
adviser, that provides access to a range of investment services including: separately managed
accounts ("SMA"), mutual fund and ETF asset allocation strategies, and unified managed accounts
("UMA") managed by external third party managers (collectively, the "Investment Programs"). Our firm
and our clients may separately engage the services of Dynasty and/or its subsidiaries to access the
Investment Programs. Under the SMA and UMA programs, we will maintain the ability to select the
specific, underlying third party managers that will, in turn, have day-to-day discretionary trading
authority over the requisite client assets.
DWM sponsors an investment management platform (the "Platform" or the "TAMP") that is available to
its Network Advisers, such as our firm. Through the Platform, DWM and Dynasty collectively provide
certain technology, administrative, operations and advisory support services that allow advisers to
manage their own portfolios and access independent third-party managers that provide discretionary
4
services in the form of traditional managed accounts and investment models. Advisers can allocate all
or a portion of client assets among the different independent third-party managers via the Platform.
Advisers may also use the model management feature of the TAMP by creating their own asset
allocation model and underlying investments that comprise the model. Through the model
management feature,
advisers may be able to outsource the implementation of trade orders and
periodic rebalancing of the model when needed.
We will maintain the direct contractual relationship with each client and obtain, through such
agreements, the authority to engage independent third-party managers, DWM and/or Dynasty, as
applicable, for services rendered through the Platform in service of such client. We may delegate
discretionary trading authority to DWM and/or independent third-party managers to effect investment
and reinvestment of client assets with the ability to buy, sell or otherwise effect investment transactions
and allocate client assets. If a client is participating in certain Investment Programs, DWM or the
designated manager, as applicable, is also authorized without prior consultation of our firm or the client
to buy, sell, trade or allocate such client's assets in accordance with the client's designated portfolio
and to deliver instructions to the designated broker-dealer and/or custodian of such client's assets.
Clients whose assets are invested in model portfolios may not set restrictions on the specific holdings
or allocations within the model, nor the types of securities that can be purchased in the model.
Nonetheless, clients may impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities in
their account. In such cases, this may prevent a client from investing in certain models that are
managed by our firm.
Sub-Advisory Services to Private Fund
We are sub-advisor to Keebeck Hedge Plus, LP (the "Fund), a pooled investment vehicle that
is excluded from the definition of an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
and whose securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Fund is in
the process of winding down, therefore, it is not open to new investors.
Wrap Fee Programs
We do not participate in any wrap fee program.
Rollover Recommendations
Effective December 20, 2021 (or such later date as the US Department of Labor ("DOL") Field
Assistance Bulletin 2018-02 ceases to be in effect), for purposes of complying with the DOL's
Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2020-02 ("PTE 2020-02") where 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 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.
5
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.
Types of Investments
We primarily offer advice on ETFs, bonds, equities, mutual funds, currencies, and alternatives. Refer to
the Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss below for additional disclosures on
this topic.
Additionally, we may advise you on various types of investments based on your stated goals and
objectives. We may also provide advice on any type of investment held in your portfolio at the inception
of our advisory relationship.
Assets Under Management
As of March 21, 2024, we provide continuous management services for $1,623,101,659 in client
assets on a discretionary basis, and $0 in client assets on a non-discretionary basis.
