ADVISORY SERVICES WE OFFER
Our Firm offers a variety of advisory services, which include discretionary investment management and private
funds. Before rendering any preceding advisory services, Clients must enter into one or more written Investment
Advisory Agreements (“Agreements”), setting forth the relevant terms and conditions of the advisory
relationship. The Funds and separately managed accounts are collectively referred to as “Clients” in this
brochure.
Our Firm manages separately managed accounts for charitable foundations and private funds. With our
discretionary basis, we will change the portfolio as appropriate to help meet your financial objectives. We trade
Client portfolios based on our Firm’s market views and the Client’s financial goals.
We primarily allocate our separately managed accounts into mutual funds, stock and bond ETFs, ETNs, individual
stocks, bonds, treasuries, CEFs, BDCs, gold, silver, REITs and private notes. The Investment Advisory Agreement
with our Clients gives us broad investment authority, so we may utilize other security types when investing.
A Client’s investment allocation and our strategy will depend on the Client's responses in review meetings,
written questionnaires, stated goals, risk tolerance, and objectives.
Clients are advised to promptly notify us if there are changes in their financial situation or if they wish to place
any limitations on managing their portfolios.
We do not provide tax or legal advice. Clients should consult with an expert on tax or
legal issues.

PRIVATE FUND
Branzan, or an affiliate, acts as a General Partner to multiple Private Funds (each a “Client” or “Fund”). Interests
in the Funds are offered to Reg D qualified investors – certain sophisticated, qualified investors, including high
net worth individuals, retirement plans, trusts, partnerships, corporations, or other businesses. Our primary
investment objective is to offer exposure to certain sectors that may otherwise not be available to our Clients.
Additional details are available in the Funds’ Private Placement Memoranda and Offering Documents. The Firm
employs an opportunistic, value-oriented investment strategy supported by an analytical, fundamental research
approach to identifying and assessing intrinsic value. However, our Firm may tailor specific advisory services with
respect to each Private Fund based on the particular investment objectives and strategies described in the
applicable Fund’s (i) confidential offering memorandum and (ii) limited partnership agreement and other
governing documents (referred to collectively as “Offering Documents”). The goal is to create an offering (the
Fund) that has a unique position and profile in the marketplace, exposed to skilled fund management, with
proven historical performance, and with a strategy that is poised for upside given the underwritten risks.
The Funds are not registered as investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and only
offer interests in a private placement. Further, such interests in private placements are only offered to accredited
investors (as defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act). Investors will be required to represent
in writing that they meet any such standards that may be applicable to them. The General Partner of the Funds
can, without the consent of the existing Members, admit new Members to the Funds. The General Partner may
reject a subscription for an Interest for any reason in its sole and absolute discretion. It is important clients refer
to Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss below for important information about
the risks associated with the Private Funds.
CLIENT OBJECTIVES & RESTRICTIONS
Our Firm tailors its investment management and advisory services continuously to meet the needs of our Clients.
We seek to ensure Client portfolios are managed consistently with those needs and objectives in mind. We meet
with Clients on an initial and ongoing basis to assess their specific risk tolerance, time horizon, liquidity
constraints, and other related factors relevant to managing their portfolios. Clients may impose reasonable
restrictions on managing the accounts if the conditions do not impact the performance of a management
strategy.
WRAP FEE PROGRAM
Our Firm does not sponsor or participate in a Wrap Program.
ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT
As of December 31, 2023, our Firm had $102,215,657 in discretionary assets under management and $0 in non-
discretionary assets under management.
