Specialized Retirement Consultants LLC (hereinafter “SRC”) is a Limited Liability
Company organized in the State of Michigan. The firm was formed in November 2021,

B. Types of Advisory Services
Portfolio Management Services
SRC offers ongoing portfolio management services based on the individual goals,
objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance of each client. SRC creates an Investment
Policy Statement for each client, which outlines the client’s current situation (income, tax
levels, and risk tolerance levels). Portfolio management services include, but are not
limited to, the following:
• Investment strategy • Personal investment policy
• Asset allocation • Asset selection
• Risk tolerance • Regular portfolio monitoring
SRC 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.
SRC seeks to provide that investment decisions are made in accordance with the fiduciary
duties owed to its accounts and without consideration of SRC’s economic, investment or
other financial interests. To meet its fiduciary obligations, SRC attempts to avoid, among
other things, investment or trading practices that systematically advantage or
disadvantage certain client portfolios, and, accordingly, SRC’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 SRC’s policy to allocate investment
opportunities and transactions it identifies as being appropriate and prudent that might
have a limited supply, among its clients on a fair and equitable basis over time.
Pension Consulting Services
SRC offers consulting services to pension or other employee benefit plans (including but
not limited to 401(k) plans). Pension consulting may include, but is not limited to:
• identifying investment objectives and restrictions

options

to achieve objectives
• monitoring performance of money managers and investment options and
making recommendations for changes
• recommending other service providers, such as custodians, administrators
and broker-dealers
• creating a written pension consulting plan
These services are based on the goals, objectives, demographics, time horizon, and/or risk
tolerance of the plan and its participants.

specific set of recommendations for each client based on their personal restrictions, needs,
and targets. Clients may not impose restrictions in investing in certain securities or types
