owned by Brandon H. VanLandingham.
The following paragraphs describe our services and fees. Please refer to the description of each
investment advisory service listed below for information on how we tailor our advisory services to your
individual needs. As used in this brochure, the words "we," "our," and "us" refer to Perissos Investment
Management , LLC and the words "you," "your" and "client" refer to you as either a client or
prospective client of our firm.
Portfolio Management Services
We offer discretionary portfolio management services. Our investment advice is tailored to meet our
clients' needs and investment objectives. If you retain our firm for portfolio management services, we
will meet with you to determine your investment objectives, risk tolerance, and other relevant
information at the beginning of our advisory relationship. We will use the information we gather to
develop a strategy that enables our firm to give you continuous and focused investment advice and/or
to make investments on your behalf. As part of our portfolio management services, we may customize
an investment portfolio for you according to your risk tolerance and investing objectives. We may also
invest your assets using a predefined strategy, or we may invest your assets according to one or more
model portfolios developed by our firm. Once we construct an investment portfolio for you or select a
model portfolio, we will monitor your portfolio's performance on an ongoing basis and will rebalance
the portfolio as required by changes in market conditions and in your financial circumstances.
If you participate in our discretionary portfolio management services, we require you to grant our firm
discretionary authority to manage your account. The discretionary authorization 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 and the appropriate trading authorization forms.
You may limit our discretionary authority (for example, limiting the types of securities that can be
purchased or sold for your account) by providing our firm with your restrictions and guidelines in
writing.
As part of our portfolio management services, in addition to other types of investments (see
disclosures below in this section), we may invest your assets according to one or more
model portfolios developed by our firm. These models are designed for investors with varying degrees
of risk tolerance ranging from a more aggressive investment strategy to a more conservative
investment approach. Clients whose assets are invested in model portfolios may not set restrictions on
the specific holdings or allocations within the model, nor the types of securities that can be purchased
in the model.
Private Placement Due Diligence:
When suitable for clients, typically accredited investors, qualified clients, and/or qualified purchasers (as
those terms are defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission) with limited liquidity needs only,
we may recommend and assist clients in making investments in private funds. Any private investments
will be conducted exclusively via private funds offered and overseen by a reputable manager with
recognizable institutional expertise in the targeted investment area.
These funds are chosen when we believe they may offer some combination of:
• exposure to assets or investment strategies that may be uncorrelated, or less correlated, to the
broad publicly traded equity and debt markets
• attractive sources of return from the assets or trading strategy that may be otherwise inaccessible
or heavily constrained when offered in public investment vehicles
To evaluate the relative attractiveness between private investments and publicly-traded alternatives after
considering the added risk factors and implementation issues inherent in private investments, we will
typically complete some or all of the following analysis before making any initial investment
recommendation, and during the ongoing period that we hold exposure to that investment:
• Initial and ongoing due diligence of the manager and the investment offering that may include:
▪ Review of fund subscription materials, audited financials, historical tax reporting
samples, historical investment commentary and other reporting furnished by fund
manager or sponsor
▪ In-person or remote attendance at fund manager or sponsor update calls, webinars, or
meetings
▪ Fund performance reviews: monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual
▪ Discussion with other investors and review of third-party due diligence sources for the
manager and the fund
• Coordinating tax document delivery and ongoing tax planning related to the fund with client CPAs
to monitor any unique income character and ancillary filing requirements resulting from the private
structure itself or the underlying investment activity
• Evaluation and integration of applicable fund liquidity opportunities within the context of, but not
limited to, client goals, objectives, tax situation, need for liquidity, and estate planning
• Non-discretionary management and handling of all intervening private fund cash flows – including
but not limited to - initial commitments, ongoing capital calls, income/capital distributions,
voluntary/involuntary redemption activity, sequential commitment structuring, target illiquidity
maintenance at the portfolio level
• Awareness and integration of any unique return/risk attributes for each individual fund and the
private fund commitment as a whole with the consolidated portfolio construction and expected
interaction between other client investments
• Ongoing performance/valuation reporting maintenance for all individual private investments and
the private fund commitment as a whole – fully integrated into the client’s consolidated
performance/risk reporting which covers all public and private investments across the portfolio
Portfolio Consulting Services
We provide portfolio consulting services where the investment advice provided is custom-tailored to
meet your needs and investment objectives. Upon retaining our portfolio consulting services, we will
gather information about your financial situation and objectives, and assist you in determining your
investment goals, objectives, risk tolerance, and retirement plan time horizon.
Typically, portfolio consulting services involve the review of your investment portfolio, where we may
recommend an investment allocation model and/or provide recommendations for rebalancing the
investment portfolio in efforts to achieve your target allocation based on your investment profile.
Additionally, our services may also include, but are not limited to risk tolerance assessment, asset
allocation recommendations, monitoring your account,
and advice relating to other specific financial-
related topics. You are free at all times to accept or reject any of our investment recommendations. You
are solely responsible for implementing our recommendations. Unless you separately retain our
portfolio management services, we will not execute any transactions or changes in conjunction with the
advice and/or recommendations given through our portfolio consulting services.
You are under no obligation to act on our recommendations. Should you choose to act on any of our
recommendations, you are not obligated to implement our recommendations through any of our other
investment advisory services. Portfolio consulting services are based on your financial situation at the
time we deliver the services to you and on the financial information you provide to us. You must
promptly notify our firm if your financial situation, goals, objectives, or needs change.
Sub-Advisory Management Services
We may also act as a sub-adviser to unaffiliated third-party investment advisers (the "Primary
Investment Adviser") whereby such third parties engage us for the purpose of managing all or a portion
of, the unaffiliated adviser's client assets ("outside accounts"). The third-party adviser will remain as
the Primary Adviser for its client accounts.
Under such arrangements, we provide discretionary asset management services, where the
management services provided to the outside accounts are based upon established model portfolios or
strategies which correlate to specific investment objectives and risk tolerance levels.
The model portfolio allocations will be constructed and maintained to provide investment objective-
driven management services to investors. The primary adviser will communicate with and assist its
clients ('the investor") in selecting the appropriate model based on information provided to the primary
adviser.
We will monitor the investments contained in the outside accounts in order to provide on-going
supervision as to changes in the investments and/or allocations of such investments that are
necessary to adhere to the desired investment objective.
Subject to any written guidelines, that the investor may provide, we will be granted discretion and
authority to manage the outside accounts. Accordingly, we are authorized to perform various functions,
at the investor's expense, without further approval from the investor. Such functions include the
determination of the type and amount of securities to be purchased and/or sold. We provide continuous
supervision, and re-balancing of the outside account portfolios as changes in market conditions occur.
The Primary Adviser will be responsible for determining the initial and on-going suitability of any of our
portfolios in which to place the investor's assets. We will manage the outside accounts in accordance
with the chosen portfolio's stated objectives. We will not be responsible for determining the suitability of
any chosen strategy/portfolio.
Financial Planning and Consulting Services:
Perissos offers financial planning services to individuals, and high net worth individuals that are tailored
to the complexity of their individual and family needs and assets. The services can include: Cash Flow
Planning, Retirement Planning, 5 Investment Planning, Charitable Giving, Social Security and Medicare
Planning, Tax Planning, Insurance Review, Estate Planning, Education Planning, Business Continuity
Planning, Additional consultation concerning debt management, non-security asset(s) purchase or sale,
such as rental real estate or vehicles, and personal document management is also available.
The financial planning process consists of a series of steps taken to help you, our client, accomplish your
goals. An Investment Adviser Representative (IAR) of Perissos conducts an initial complimentary
consultation. If all parties agree to the scope of the engagement and the fee, the IAR conducts a follow-
up meeting to gather all required documents and pertinent information about your financial
circumstances, your objectives, personal cash flow, taxes, insurance coverage, retirement plans,
investments, estate documents, financial experience, and risk tolerance. Once all the information has
been reviewed and analyzed, a written financial plan is designed to help you achieve your stated financial
goals and is presented to you with extensive explanation. Ongoing updating and refining are done when
your circumstances or goals change or there is a pertinent change in the law affecting you or your assets.
The primary objective of the financial planning process is to allow us to assist you in developing a
strategy for the successful management of income, assets, and liabilities to meet your financial goals and
objectives through discussion and analysis of appropriate financial planning topics as generally defined
by the CFP® Board of Standards. At periodic reviews or more frequently if your needs change, additional
updating of the plan will be discussed and implemented with your input and approval.
Retirement Plan Consulting Services:
We provide advisory services to plan sponsors of employer-sponsored retirement plans for which it has
been specifically engaged, in addition to supporting affiliated companies through other non-advisory
services to retirement plans for corporations and other business entities either as a 3(21) fiduciary. Such
advisory services can include selection and/or de-selection and replacement of individual investment
options pursuant to agreed investment criteria.
In choosing and monitoring investment options for employer-sponsored retirement plans, we look for
reliable fund companies with a consistent track record and steady performance. Once a fund company is
identified for possible selection for a particular retirement plan product, we conduct an in-depth review of
the company’s operations, funds, and personnel before determining if the company’s funds as investment
options. Quantitative and qualitative factors, such as regional exposure, fund management, and asset
size/growth, are also evaluated. The fund companies are monitored on a continuous basis at the firm
level. We will assist in the construction of the portfolio by ensuring that all core asset classes are covered
to offer full diversification opportunities. However, the final decision of which funds to select is up to the
plan sponsor and/or consultant.
