B. Description of Advisory Services Offered
Park Capital offers investment consulting and investment management services to a wide variety
of clients including, but not limited to, individuals, pension and profit sharing plans, trusts,
estates, charitable organizations, corporations, and other business entities.
B.1. Consulting Services
In completing a financial plan or other consulting project, regardless of the complexity,
Representatives will:
▪ Interview the client, analyze the client’s financial needs and assist the client in developing
realistic goals and objectives based on information provided by the client. The
Representative may also clarify planning problems and outline strategies designed to
meet the client’s goals. A client may retain Park Capital to perform a single nonrecurring
project, such as investment research or specific investment advice, retirement planning
or insurance analysis, or a comprehensive plan covering these and other subjects. A
client may also engage a Representative for projects that may require annual or more
frequent reviews if more complex long-term planning is needed.
▪ Prepare an initial written project or comprehensive plan in the scope requested by a
client based on the information gathered during the client interview and needs
evaluation. This plan may include establishing a clear set of objectives, an outline of
resources, a written investment policy statement, an asset allocation model, strategy
recommendations, retirement, estate, education, or insurance planning, product
recommendations, and steps to take for implementing advice provided.
▪ Help the client implement the plan, including purchasing and/or selling securities and/or
insurance products.
▪ Review the plan periodically in the scope and frequency agreed upon with the client.
The Representative may also, as needed, recommend changes to the client’s investment
portfolio or Plan, either in writing or verbally. Changes in the client’s financial condition, personal
circumstances, goals, or general economic conditions may trigger changes in the plan. To the
extent material changes have occurred to a client’s circumstances or goals, or to the extent a
client requests a new project, the client will be asked to sign a new services agreement. The
Page 6
client may initiate contact with the client’s Representative as often as needed and the
Representative will schedule conferences as needed, usually no less than annually.
All investment consulting is based on information provided by the client. It is the client’s
responsibility to be certain Park Capital has current and accurate information for the initial plan
and it is the client’s responsibility to inform the Representative of material changes affecting the
investments and planning strategies implemented.
B.2. Investment Management Services
Park Capital offers clients portfolio management and reporting services by means of its
Investment Management Services program. Through the program, clients receive investment
analysis, allocation recommendations, monthly or quarterly statements reflecting holdings and
transactions, quarterly statements, and ongoing account monitoring services for a portfolio
which may include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and convertible
securities. Park Capital will exercise discretionary trading authority while providing services. This
means that Park Capital Representatives will have authority to purchase and sell securities of
their choice in the amounts and at the times
they believe it is suitable for a client’s account to
do so. Park Capital may also recommend the use of third-party investment managers to manage
all, or a portion of the assets. Such managers will also have limited discretionary trading
authority. Park Capital also offers non-discretionary investment advice, in which Park Capital
makes investment recommendations to clients and clients decide whether to implement the
recommendation.
The initial asset allocation recommendations are based on the financial information gathered
from each client including net worth, risk tolerance, financial goals and objectives, investment
restrictions and overall financial conditions. Based on this information, the client is provided with
investment recommendations designed to provide an appropriate asset mix consistent with the
client’s objectives. The frequency of these reviews is determined by the Representative. Park
Capital Representatives meet with the client on an as needed basis to discuss the portfolio and
other aspects of the service.
Clients should be aware that commissions will be charged for transactions by the brokerage firm
processing the transactions.
As a general rule, Park Capital believes that investing is best suited to those who believe in a
long-term buy-and-hold policy. Therefore, clients should not expect frequent investment
changes in the portfolio. However, as a result of monitoring the account, investment purchases
and sales will be made.
Investments are not held by Park Capital. Instead, all investments managed by Park Capital are
usually held at the brokerage firm ("Custodian") through which transactions are placed.
Park Capital does not assure or guarantee the results of its Investment Management Services;
thus, losses can occur from following Park Capital advice pertaining to any investment or
investment approach, including using conservative investment strategies.
For its discretionary asset management services, Park Capital receives a limited power of
attorney to effect securities transactions on behalf of its clients that include securities and
strategies described in Item 8 of this brochure.

In addition to providing Park Capital with information regarding their personal financial
circumstances, investment objectives and tolerance for risk, clients have the right to provide the
firm with any reasonable investment restrictions that should be imposed on the management of
their portfolio, and to promptly notify the firm in writing of any changes in such restrictions or in
the client's personal financial circumstances, investment objectives, goals and tolerance for risk.
Park Capital will also contact clients at least annually to determine whether there have been any
changes in a client's personal financial circumstances, investment objectives and tolerance for
risk.
