B. Types of Advisory Services
Box Financial Advisors, LLC (hereinafter “BFA”) offers the following services to advisory clients:
Investment Supervisory Services
BFA offers ongoing portfolio management services based on the individual goals, objectives, time
horizon, and risk tolerance of each client. BFA creates an Investment Policy Statement for each
client, which outlines the client’s current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels)
and then constructs a plan (the Investment Policy Statement) to aid in the selection of a portfolio
that matches each client’s specific situation. Investment Supervisory Services include, but are not
limited to, the following:
• Investment strategy • Personal investment policy
• Asset allocation • Asset selection
• Risk tolerance • Regular portfolio monitoring
BFA evaluates the current investments of each client with respect to their risk tolerance levels and
time horizon. BFA will request discretionary authority from clients in order to select securities
and execute transactions without permission from the client prior to each transaction. Risk
tolerance levels are documented in the Investment Policy Statement, which is given to each client.
BFA also provides portfolio management for separately managed retirement accounts (i.e.:
individuals’ 401(k) plan assets).
Additionally, BFA periodically offers complimentary educational seminars.

other securities as well to help diversify a portfolio when applicable.
C. Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restrictions
BFA offers the same suite of services to all of its clients. However, specific client financial plans
and their implementation are dependent upon the client Investment Policy Statement which
outlines each client’s current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and is used
to construct a client specific plan to aid in the selection of a portfolio that matches restrictions,
needs, and targets.
Clients may impose restrictions in investing in certain securities or types of securities in
accordance with their values or beliefs. However, if the restrictions prevent BFA from properly
servicing the client account, or if the restrictions would require BFA to deviate from its standard
suite of services, BFA reserves the right to end the relationship.
