consults with the Adviser during the negotiation of the investment advisory agreement, prior to funding its
account, to create investment guidelines for the client's account. Investment guidelines for SMAs are typically
customized to each specific client account and
such guidelines often vary significantly among institutional SMAs
within the same strategy or with the same investment objective.
