Overview
Multnomah Group, Inc. (“Multnomah” “we” or “us”) is an independent Portland, Oregon based SEC registered
investment advisory firm providing a variety of services to our Clients. This Brochure has been created to provide
information relating to the investment advisory and financial planning services we provide to individuals.
The firm has been in business since 2003 and registered as an investment adviser with the SEC since 2005. The
principal owners are Erik Daley and Scott Cameron. Becki Koldsbaek is the Chief Compliance Officer. Our approach
uses broadly diversified portfolios and a systematic strategy to manage investments. We follow fiduciary standards,
putting our Clients’ interests before our own and seeking to avoid conflicts of interest with our Clients.
We offer investment advisory, portfolio management, and financial planning services to individuals. Our investment
recommendations primarily include mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and separate account managers investing in
exchange-listed equity securities. We may also recommend other types of investments such as certificates of deposit,
municipal securities, corporate bonds, U.S. government securities and money market funds. If Clients hold other types
of investments, we may advise on those investments also. See Item 8 for a description of our investment strategy.
Individuals (including small retirement plans)
Our advice and services are tailored to the unique objectives of each Client. We work with Clients to formulate an
investment strategy after discussing risk tolerance, time horizon, and projected future liquidity needs, current holdings,
tax considerations, personal market views and other factors. This strategy provides guidance to formulate suitable
investment and financial recommendations. We meet with Clients as needed to review portfolio performance, discuss
current issues, and re-assess goals and investments plans. Client input, involvement and decision-making are critical to
the planning process and implementation of investment decisions.
Financial planning
Broad-based, modular, and consultative financial planning services are also available to individual Clients. Advice will
typically involve providing a variety of services relating to the management of financial resources based upon an
analysis of individual needs. Pertinent information about the Client’s personal and financial circumstances and
objectives is collected. We often conduct follow up interviews for the purpose of reviewing and/or collecting financial
data. Once information has been studied and analyzed, a financial plan designed to achieve the Client’s expressed
financial goals and objectives may be produced and presented to the Client.
Financial plans are based on the Client’s financial situation at the time the financial information is disclosed by the Client
to us. Clients are advised that certain assumptions may be made with respect to interest and inflation rates and the use
of past trends and performance of the market and economy.
We generally have discretionary authority relating to the investment management services we offer to our individual
Clients. We do not accept discretionary authority relating to financial planning recommendations. Clients who engage us

securities or types of securities and we consider such restrictions when developing an investment strategy.
