This Disclosure document is being offered to you by Capital and Planning, LLC (“CAP ” or “Firm”) about the
investment advisory services we provide. It discloses information about our services and the way those services
are made available to you, the client.
Our Firm became a registered investment adviser in 2022 and is owned by Michael Edmondson.
We are committed to helping clients build, manage and preserve their wealth. Our Firm provides services that
help clients to achieve their stated financial goals. We will offer an initial complimentary meeting upon our
discretion; however, investment advisory services are initiated only after you and CAP execute an Investment
Management Agreement.
INVESTMENT AND WEALTH MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION SERVICES
We manage advisory accounts on a discretionary and non-discretionary basis. For discretionary accounts, once
we have determined a profile and investment plan with a client, we will execute the day-to-day transactions
without seeking prior client consent but within the expected investment guidelines. We may accept accounts with
certain restrictions if circumstances warrant. We primarily allocate client assets among individual cash, CD’s,
stocks, bonds, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), and mutual funds, in accordance with their stated investment
objectives. We generally invest Client's cash balances in money market funds. Where deemed appropriate, we
may recommend that our Clients invest in alternative assets, including real estate funds and other alternative
funds. Although the Investment Advisory Agreement with our Clients gives us broad investment authority, we do
not anticipate investing in other security types. Ultimately, we try to achieve the highest return on our client’s
cash balances through relatively low-risk and conservative investments. In most cases, at least a partial cash
balance will be maintained in a money market account so that our firm may debit advisory fees for our services
related to this service.
Portfolios will be designed to meet a particular investment goal, determined to be suitable to the client's
circumstances. Once the appropriate portfolio has been determined, portfolios are continuously and regularly
monitored, and if necessary, rebalanced based upon the client’s individual needs, stated goals and objectives.
During personal discussions with clients, we determine the client’s objectives, time horizons, risk tolerance, and
liquidity needs. As appropriate, we also review a client’s prior investment history, family composition and
background. We develop a client’s personal profile and investment plan based on client needs. We then create
and manage the client’s investments based on that policy and plan. The client must notify us immediately if
circumstances have changed with respect to their goals.
Once we have determined the types of investments to be included in a client's portfolio and have allocated the
assets, we provide ongoing investment review and management services.
With our discretionary relationship, we will make changes to the portfolio, as we deem appropriate, to meet client
financial objectives. We trade these portfolios based on the combination of our market views and client
objectives, using our investment process. We tailor our advisory services to meet the needs of our clients and seek
to ensure that your portfolio is managed in a manner consistent with those needs and objectives. Clients have the
ability to leave standing instructions with us to refrain from investing in particular industries or invest in limited
amounts of securities.
If a non-discretionary relationship is in place, calls will be placed presenting the recommendation made and only
upon your authorization will any action be taken on your behalf.
In all cases, clients have a direct and beneficial interest in their securities, rather than an undivided interest in a
pool of securities. We do have limited authority to direct the Custodian to deduct our investment advisory fees
from your accounts, but only with the appropriate written authorization from clients.
Where appropriate, we provide advice about any type of legacy position held in client portfolios. Typically, these
are ineligible assets to be custodied at our primary custodian. Clients will engage us to advise on certain
investment products not maintained at their primary custodian, such as variable life insurance, annuity contracts,
and assets held in employer-sponsored retirement plans and qualified tuition plans (i.e., 529 plans).
You are advised and expected to understand that our past performance does not guarantee future results. Certain
market and economic risks exist that adversely affect an account's performance. This could result in capital losses
in your account.
FINANCIAL PLANNING
Our Firm offers financial planning services, which involve preparing a written financial plan covering specific or
multiple topics. We provide full written financial plans, which may address one or several topics: Investment
Planning, Retirement
Planning, Insurance Planning, Tax Planning, Education Planning, Portfolios, and Allocation
Review.
Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, the Client is solely responsible for determining whether to implement our
financial planning recommendations. Our financial planning services do not involve implementing transactions on
your behalf nor include active and ongoing monitoring or management of your investments or accounts.
The Client must execute a separate written agreement if the Client elects to implement any of our investment
recommendations through our Firm or retain our Firm to monitor and manage investments actively.
EMONEY ADVISOR PLATFORM
Our Firm makes available to Clients the “eMoney Advisor” platforms to provide periodic comprehensive reporting
services that can incorporate all the Client's investment assets, including those investment assets that are not part
of the assets managed by our Firm (“Excluded Assets”). The Client and their other advisors that maintain trading
authority, and not our Firm, shall be exclusively responsible for the investment performance of the excluded
assets.
Unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing, our Firm's service relative to the excluded assets is limited to
reporting only. Therefore, we shall not be responsible for the investment performance of the excluded assets.
Instead, the Client and the Client's designated outside investment professional(s) maintain supervision,
monitoring, and trading authority for the excluded assets. If our Client prefers we make recommendations as to
any excluded assets, the Client has no obligation to accept the recommendation, and we shall not be responsible
for any implementation error (timing, trading, etc.) relative to the excluded assets. If the Client prefers we provide
investment advisory services for the excluded assets, the Client may engage us under the terms and conditions of
a Consulting or Investment Advisory Agreement between our Firm and the Client.
eMoney Advisor Platform may also provide access to other types of information, including financial planning
concepts, which should not be construed as our Firm's personalized investment advice or recommendations. We
shall not be held responsible for any adverse results a Client may experience if the Client engages in financial
planning or other functions available on the eMoney Advisor Platform without our assistance or oversight.
DISCLOSURE REGARDING ROLLOVER RECOMMENDATIONS
A client or prospect leaving an employer typically has four options regarding an existing retirement plan (and may
engage in a combination of these options): (i) leave the money in the former employer’s plan, if permitted, (ii) roll
over the assets to the new employer’s plan, if one is available and rollovers are permitted, (iii) rollover to an
Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”), or (iv) cash out the account value (which could, depending upon the client’s
age, result in adverse tax consequences). Our Firm may recommend an investor roll over plan assets to an IRA for
which our Firm provides investment advisory services. As a result, our Firm and its representatives may earn an
asset-based fee. In contrast, a recommendation that a client or prospective client leave their plan assets with their
previous employer or roll over the assets to a plan sponsored by a new employer will generally result in no
compensation to our Firm. Our Firm therefore has an economic incentive to encourage a client to roll plan assets
into an IRA that our Firm will manage, which presents a conflict of interest. To mitigate the conflict of interest,
there are various factors that our Firm will consider before recommending a rollover, including but not limited to:
(i) the investment options available in the plan versus the investment options available in an IRA, (ii) fees and
expenses in the plan versus the fees and expenses in an IRA, (iii) the services and responsiveness of the plan’s
investment professionals versus those of our Firm, (iv) protection of assets from creditors and legal judgments,
(v) required minimum distributions and age considerations, and (vi) employer stock tax consequences, if any. All
rollover recommendations are reviewed by our Firm’s Chief Compliance Officer and remains available to address
any questions that a client or prospective client has regarding the oversight.
We are fiduciaries under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and when we provide investment advice to you
regarding your retirement plan account or individual retirement account, we are also 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. We have to act in your best interest and not put our
interest ahead of yours. At the same time, how we make money conflicts with your interests.
WRAP FEE PROGRAM
Our Firm does not sponsor a Wrap Fee Program.
ASSETS
