Arcadia Investment Management Corporation (hereinafter referred to as “AIMC”) is a SEC-
registered investment advisor with its principal place of business located in Michigan. We opened
the firm in 1987.
We are owned by three shareholders, two control 25% or more of the company.
We offer the following advisory services to our clients:
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
We provide continuous asset management of your funds based on your needs. We learn about
your goals and objectives based on your circumstances and develop a personal investment policy.
We consider the nature and amount of all assets and sources of income or support, including assets
other than those under our management. We create and manage a portfolio based on the
investment policy. During our data-gathering process, we determine your objectives, time
horizons, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. As appropriate, we may also review and discuss your
prior investment history, as well as family composition and background.
We manage your accounts on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis. Account management is
guided by your stated objectives (i.e., maximum capital appreciation, growth, income, or growth
and income), as well as tax considerations.
Once your portfolio has been established, we review the portfolio regularly. Changes are made as
appropriate to meet your objectives.
Our investment recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service offered by a
broker-dealer or insurance company and will generally include advice regarding the following
securities:
Exchange-listed securities
Securities traded over-the-counter
Foreign issuers
Warrants
Corporate debt securities (other than commercial paper)
Commercial paper
Certificates of deposit
Municipal securities
Mutual fund shares
United States government securities
Options contracts on securities
Exchange traded funds
Because some types of investments involve certain additional degrees of risk, they will only be
implemented when consistent with your stated investment objectives, tolerance for risk, liquidity
and suitability.
Fiduciary
Status
Pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), and regulations under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), AIMC and individuals providing investment advice
on our behalf (“Fiduciary Advisers” or “FAs”) will be deemed to be investment advice fiduciaries
(“ERISA Fiduciaries”) when we render individualized investment advice to a plan, plan fiduciary,
plan participant or beneficiary, IRA, or IRA owner, Health Savings Accounts (“HSAs”), Archer
Medical Savings Accounts and Coverdell Education Savings Accounts (together, “Retirement
Accounts”) for a fee or other compensation, whether direct or indirect. While we are already
fiduciaries for all of your advisory accounts under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, we are
required to acknowledge this new ERISA Fiduciary status.
Acknowledgement of Fiduciary Status
Pursuant to the recommendations we provide to your retirement account(s) and your acceptance
thereof, We acknowledge that we are acting as Fiduciaries under ERISA with respect to
recommended transactions. As ERISA Fiduciaries to our clients, we have an affirmative duty of
undivided loyalty to always serve our clients’ best interests and act in utmost good faith, placing
our clients’ interests first and foremost without regard to the financial interests of our employees,
affiliates, and related entities or other parties. Further, as Fiduciaries we are required to act
prudently on our clients’ behalf, exercising care, skill and diligence when providing our services.
As ERISA Fiduciaries, We are committed to these Impartial Conduct Standards:
(i) providing prudent advice that is, at the time of the recommendation, in the best interest of
our client,
(ii) receiving no more than reasonable compensation, and
(iii) statements made regarding the recommended transaction, fees and compensation, material
conflicts of interest and other matters relevant to the retirement investor’s investment
decisions, will not be materially misleading at the time they are made.
