Magnolia Private Wealth, LLC (“Magnolia”) is an investment advisor registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”). Magnolia is a limited liability company
formed in November 2022 under the laws of the state of Wyoming. Larry G. Peery, II
and Noah D. Schwartz are the principal owners of Magnolia. Currently, we provide the
following investment advisory services, which are customized to each individual
Client:
• Financial Planning Services
• Portfolio Management Services
• Employee Benefit Plan Services
Financial Planning Services
Financial planning services will typically involve providing a variety of services,
principally advisory in nature, to you regarding the management of your financial
resources and based on an analysis of your individual needs. An Associated Person of
our firm will first conduct a complimentary initial consultation. After the initial
consultation, if you decide to engage us for financial planning services, an Associated
Person will conduct follow up meetings as necessary, during which pertinent
information about your financial circumstances and objectives is collected. Once such
information has been reviewed and analyzed, a written (may be delivered digitally or
via an online portal) financial plan—designed to achieve your stated financial goals
and objectives—will be produced and presented to you. The primary objective of this
process is to allow us to assist you in developing a strategy for the successful
management of income, assets, and liabilities in meeting your financial goals and
objectives. Financial plans are based on your financial situation at the time the plan is
5
presented and are based on financial information disclosed by you to us. You are
advised that certain assumptions may be made with respect to interest and inflation
rates and use of past trends and performance of the market and economy. Past
performance is in no way an indication of future results. We cannot offer any
guarantees or promises that your financial goals and objectives will be met. As your
financial situation, goals, objectives, or needs change, you must notify us promptly in
writing.
Portfolio Management Services
We are also engaged in the business of providing discretionary portfolio
management and investment advisory services on a continuous basis. If you
participate in our discretionary portfolio management services, we require you to
grant us discretionary authority to manage your account. Discretionary authority will
allow us to determine the specific securities, and the amount of securities, to be
purchased or sold for your account without your approval prior to each transaction.
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 for your account) by providing our firm with your restrictions and
guidelines in writing.
Employee Benefit Plan Services
Our firm provides employee benefit plan services to employer plan sponsors on an
ongoing basis. Generally, such services consist of assisting employer plan sponsors in
establishing, monitoring, and reviewing their company's participant-directed
retirement plan. As the needs of the plan sponsor dictate, areas of advice may include
investment options, plan structure, and participant education.
In providing employee benefit plan services, our firm does not provide any advisory
services with respect to the following types of assets: employer securities, real estate
(excluding real estate funds and publicly traded REITS), participant loans, non-publicly
traded securities or assets, other illiquid investments, or brokerage window programs
(collectively, “Excluded Assets”).
Retirement Rollovers-Potential for Conflict of Interest
A Client or prospective Client 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) roll over
the assets into an Individual Retirement Account ("IRA"), or (iv) cash out the account
6
value (which could, depending upon the Client's age, result in adverse tax
consequences). If we recommend that a Client roll over their retirement plan assets
into an account to be managed by our firm, such a recommendation creates a
conflict of interest if we will earn a new (or increased) advisory fee as a result of the
rollover. No Client is under any obligation to roll over retirement plan assets to an
account managed by Magnolia. Our Chief Compliance Officer, Larry G. Peery, II,
remains available to address any questions that a Client or prospective Client may
have regarding the potential for conflict of interest presented by such a rollover
recommendation.
Referrals to Outside Professionals
If requested by a Client, we may recommend the services of other professionals for
certain non-investment implementation purposes (e.g., attorneys, accountants,
insurance agents, etc.). Clients are reminded that they are under no obligation to
engage the services of any such recommended professional. The Client retains
absolute discretion over all such implementation decisions and is free to accept or
reject any recommendation made by Magnolia or its representatives. If the Client
engages any unaffiliated recommended professional, and a dispute arises thereafter
relative to such engagement, the Client agrees to seek recourse exclusively from and
against the engaged professional.
Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2023, Magnolia managed $110,072,048 of Client assets on a
discretionary basis and approximately $617,597 of Client assets on a non-discretionary
basis.
