Although Alaska Wealth Advisors may recommend a
particular model to a client, an exact model replication may
not be achieved due to the unique circumstances of each
client. Alaska Wealth Advisors personnel will direct and initiate
trading activity of client accounts, and APCM personnel will
execute the trades. Except for actively managed fixed income
accounts, APCM will not independently place trades on behalf
of Alaska Wealth Advisors clients.

Advisory Business Alaska Permanent Capital Management
(APCM) is an investment adviser who has been providing
investment advice in Alaska since 1992. Alaska Wealth Advisors, a
subsidiary of APCM, is a registered investment adviser that
began operations in 2014. Alaska Wealth Advisors provides
ESTATE: In conjunction with legal counsel retained
by the client, we assist the client in assessing and
developing long-term strategies
financial planning and investment management primarily for
individuals and institutions whose investment goals can be met
with investments in a mix of stock and bond index funds, or
actively managed fixed income portfolios. Private placements
may be offered to qualified clients of Alaska Wealth Advisors
through transactions that are exempt from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Rule 506(b) of
Regulation D promulgated thereunder. We are majority owned
by APCM with minority positions held by LGB Strategies
2
Other fees clients may incur include custodian fees and other
transaction costs. For more information, please see Brokerage
Practices.
We gather required information through in-depth personal
interviews. Information gathered includes the client’s current
financial status, tax status, future goals, return objectives and
attitudes towards risk. We carefully review documents supplied by
the client and prepare a written report. Should the client
choose to implement the recommendations contained in the
plan, we suggest the client work closely with his/her attorney,
accountant, and insurance agent. Implementation of financial
plan recommendations is entirely at the client’s discretion.
Fees and Compensation
All fees paid to Alaska Wealth Advisors for investment
advisory services are separate and distinct from the fees and
expenses charged by mutual funds and/or ETFs to their
shareholders. These fees and expenses are described in each
fund’s prospectus and will generally include a management fee
and other fund expenses. Certain funds held at the request
of the client may also impose sales charges where a client
may pay an initial or deferred sales charge. The client should
review both the fees charged by the funds and our fees to fully
understand the total amount of fees to be paid by the client
and to thereby evaluate the advisory services being provided.
As our primary goal is to help our clients achieve their financial
goals, our selected funds and ETFs have very low expense and
Alaska Wealth Advisors does not receive any remuneration
from such holdings.
Effective April 1, 2014, APCM entered into a service
agreement with Alaska Wealth Advisors to provide investment
research, investment model development, trading execution,
client reporting, and certain other back-office services. APCM
will earn revenue as a percentage of Alaska Wealth Advisors
revenue for these services.
All of our revenues are earned from our clients. Although the
majority of our revenue is based on account value for assets
we manage, some clients may select an additional service such
as financial planning or financial consulting. An additional fee
will apply to private placements that are offered to qualified
clients. We do not have any revenue sharing arrangements
with any 3rd party organizations nor any performance based
fees. Clients generally pay their fees from their account. Fees
are calculated monthly in arrears, based on the end of month
market value. Certain legacy holdings may be excluded, which
would be listed in the client’s advisory agreement. For certain
annuities, fees are calculated quarterly in arrears, based upon
the average daily Contract value. The account value used to
calculate advisory fees may differ from the value reported on
the statement provided by the custodian. Fees for services are
billed when the service is performed. Terminated clients will
pay a pro-rata fee through the date Alaska Wealth Advisors
services ended, and a refund will be given for any advance
payment of fees collected covering periods after Alaska Wealth
Advisors services end.
Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
All accounts are managed with the best interest of each client
as the guide. Client accounts are treated fairly and no client
is favored over another. We do not have any performance-
based fees. While infrequent, side-by-side management are
addressed in our trade allocation policies.
Types of Clients
Our clients include both institutions and individuals (IRAs,
after-tax savings accounts, educational plans, HSAs and trusts.)
In general, our minimum account size is $500,000.
Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of
Loss
Fees are negotiable depending on size of the account and
other considerations that may result in economies of scale.
Account fees range from 1.5% of assets under management
and below. Alaska Wealth Advisors will not provide investment
management services on these securities, but such securities
may be considered by Alaska Wealth Advisors personnel as
part of the overall client portfolio. Clients will inform Alaska
Wealth Advisors personnel of the nature and timing of any
transactions related to these securities held at the request of
the client.
We provide two general types of account management: 1)
fixed income only accounts, and 2) multi-asset accounts with
equity exposure. The following describes the analysis and
3
strategy for each of those accounts types as well as the
material risks involved.
of different funds held by the client may purchase the same
security, increasing the risk to the client if that security were
to fall in value. There is also a risk that a manager may deviate
from the stated investment mandate or strategy of the fund
or ETF, which could make the fund or ETF less suitable to
the client’s portfolio. As with any investment, investing in
securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared
to bear.
Fixed Income Accounts: Individual fixed income securities
may be held for certain Alaska Wealth Advisors accounts
that are of sufficient size to warrant this investment approach.
Under these circumstances, APCM Investment Personnel will
develop fixed income investment strategies to meet client
objectives. Key portfolio risk factors such as duration, sector
exposure and credit quality are measured and controlled using
quantitative techniques. Fundamental credit and structure
analysis is performed on individual securities before purchasing
for a portfolio. APCM Investment personnel will identify and
select the securities to be held in such accounts. We believe a
long term perspective and conservative approach are the best
ways to add value to our clients.
We purchase securities with the idea of holding them in a
client account for a year or longer. We may do this because
we believe the securities to be currently undervalued. We may
do this because we want exposure to a particular asset class
over time, regardless of the current projection for this class.
A risk in a long-term purchase strategy is that, by holding the
security for this length of time, we may not take advantage of
short-term gains that could be profitable to a client. Moreover,
a security may decline sharply in value before we make the
decision to sell.
Alaska Wealth Advisors and APCM only provide continual
research and give opinions on our approved securities. We do
not offer advice regarding individual equity securities.
Disciplinary History
Alaska Wealth Advisors has been a registered investment
adviser with the SEC since August 2014. None of the owners
or employees of Alaska Wealth Advisors has a record of
disciplinary history.
Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Multi-asset Accounts: Our multi-asset account investment
strategies are developed by APCM with the aid of sophisticated
software and modeling programs to achieve an efficient
portfolio. Such a portfolio is one that provides the highest
expected return given an acceptable level of risk as indicated by
the client. APCM uses inputs on market conditions, projected
economic climate, and over 150 years of the firm’s combined
investment experience to develop different strategies with
varying amounts of equity. The process results in an array
of models each with varying degrees of asset class exposure
that can be selected to meet a client’s investment goals and
risk tolerance. Securities chosen to represent asset class
exposure are mainly index funds that are evaluated based on
tracking error to the benchmark, internal fund expenses, fund
We are a privately held firm. Our only affiliate is as a subsidiary
of APCM, an adviser whose primary service is advisory
services to institutional investors. Our practice is to make
every investment decision in the best interest of the client.
Alaska Wealth Advisors participates in the Schwab Advisor
Network and Wealthramp. This is more fully described in the
section Client Referrals and Other Compensation.
Code of Ethics Summary and Offer of Delivery to Clients
As an SEC-registered adviser and pursuant to SEC rule 204A-
1, we have a Code of Ethics that governs employee conduct. A
copy is available to anyone upon request.
management, and liquidity. A risk of an asset allocation strategy
is that the client may not participate in sharp increases in a
particular asset class.
Code of Ethics Summary: In essence, we are fiduciaries to our
clients and our employees are expected to act in the best
interests of our clients at all times. Employees are required
to disclose any potential conflicts of interest that could
compromise this duty and such conflicts must be resolved in
favor of the client(s). Furthermore, the Code of Ethics covers
additional areas such as protecting confidential information,
restricting participation in business interests that create
conflicts of interest, and limiting gifts to a de minimis amount.
Our employees must report their investment holdings annually
and all their investment transactions quarterly. In addition,
employees must obtain preclearance prior to trading on
Securities purchased may include, but are not limited to: US
Treasuries, US TIPS, government-sponsored enterprises,
sovereigns, corporate and municipal debt securities, mutual
funds, exchange traded funds, asset backed securities, CDs,
commercial paper, and mortgage backed securities. A risk
of mutual fund and/or ETF analysis is that, as in all securities
investments, past performance does not guarantee future
results. A manager who has been successful may not be able
to replicate that success in the future. In addition, as we do not
control the underlying investments in a fund or ETF, managers

security that is on our Restricted List. After the Alaska
Wealth Advisors Determines a Suitable Investment model
for a client and develops the trading activity to achieve the
selected model, APCM trading personnel execute the trades
as instructed by Alaska Wealth Advisor.
The APCM Code of Ethics requires employees to maximize
client portfolio value by seeking best execution for all client
transactions. In addition, APCM traders must ensure fair and
equitable trade allocation among client accounts.
Trade Aggregation: Trades may be aggregated if it is beneficial
to clients. Allocation procedures are fair and equitable to all
clients with no particular group or client favored or disfavored
over any other clients. The firm’s defined benefit plans and
its employees in their personal accounts may participate in
trades that are aggregated with client trades. In the event of
a partial fill, trades within the firm’s defined benefit plans and
its employees’ personal accounts will participate in a pro rata
allocation along with all other participating accounts. We
prohibit any allocation of trades in a manner where the firm’s
defined benefit plan accounts, the firm’s employees in their
personal accounts, affiliated accounts, or any particular client(s)
or group of clients receive more favorable treatment than
other client accounts.
In addition to trade execution, APCM provides client reporting
and reconciliation services to Alaska Wealth Advisors. Investing
in Securities Recommended to Clients: Our investment
strategy includes identifying securities that may represent a
potential for gain or, in the case of asset allocation accounts,
identifying certain index funds that have low internal expenses
while also providing exposure to desired asset classes. When
appropriate Private Placements are offered to qualified clients.
Our employees may also invest in these securities. As part
of our personal trading policy, no preference is allowed for
employee trades, and each employee is required to report all
trading activity to the Chief Compliance Officer on a quarterly
basis.
Retirement Plan Rollovers - No Obligation/Conflict of
Interest
Cross Transactions: The firm’s policy and practice is to not
engage in any agency or principal cross transactions. However,
the firm may, at its discretion, arrange with a broker to
perform a ‘cross trade’ wherein a security held by one account
is transferred to another client account at fair value. Such a
transaction may be determined to be in the best interests of
both clients due to a portfolio strategy decision, investment
policy constraints or client liquidity needs. The firm will
determine a fair value at which the transaction is effected and
minimize the broker transaction costs associated with a cross
trade. All clients that are affected by a cross transaction will
be promptly informed.
A client or prospective client leaving an employer has four
options regarding an existing retirement plan (and may engage in
a combination of these options): (i) leave the money in the former
employer’s plan, if permitted, (ii) roll over the assets to the new
employer’s plan, if one is available and rollovers are permitted, (iii)
roll over to an Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”), or (iv) cash
out the account value (which could, depending upon the client’s
age, result in adverse tax consequences). If Alaska Wealth Advisors
recommends that a client roll over their retirement plan assets
into an account to be managed by Alaska Wealth Advisors, such
a recommendation creates a conflict of interest if Alaska Wealth
Advisors will earn new (or increases its current) compensation as
a result of the rollover. No client is under any obligation to roll
over retirement plan assets to an account managed by Alaska
Wealth Advisors.
Alaska Wealth Advisors recommends that clients establish
brokerage accounts with the Schwab Institutional division of
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), a FINRA registered
broker-dealer and SIPC member, to maintain custody of
clients’ assets and to effect trades for their accounts. Although
we suggest that clients establish accounts at Schwab, it is the
client’s decision to custody assets with Schwab. Alaska Wealth
Advisors is independently owned and operated and not
affiliated with Schwab. Alaska Wealth Advisors has evaluated
Schwab and believes that it will provide our clients with a blend
of execution services, commission costs and professionalism
that will assist our firm to meet our fiduciary obligations to
clients.
Brokerage Practices
As an investment advisory firm, we have a fiduciary duty to
transact trades in the manner that is best for our clients.
Our Best Execution policy seeks to obtain the best overall
trade execution in terms of both quantitative and qualitative
considerations, although best price is the primary consideration.
On an annual basis, we examine the relationships with broker/
dealers who execute significant amounts of trades for us.
Broker/dealers are also assessed based on their ability to
complete trades in a timely and accurate manner, respond
during volatile markets, and account for trade errors.
Schwab provides Alaska Wealth Advisors with access to its
institutional trading and custody services, which are typically
not available to Schwab retail investors. These services
generally are available to independent investment advisers on
an unsolicited basis, at no charge to them so long as a total of
at least $10 million of the adviser’s clients’ assets are maintained in
accounts at Schwab Institutional. These services are not
contingent upon our firm committing to Schwab any specific
amount of business (assets in custody or trading commissions).
Schwab’s brokerage services include the execution of securities
transactions, custody, research, and access to mutual funds and
other investments that are otherwise generally available only
to institutional investors or would require a significantly higher
5
minimum initial investment.
Institutional may also provide other benefits such as educational
events or occasional business entertainment. of our personnel. In
evaluating whether to recommend or require that clients
custody their assets at Schwab, we may take into account the
availability of some of the foregoing products and services and
other arrangements as part of the total mix of factors we
consider and not solely on the nature, cost or quality of custody
and brokerage services provided by Schwab, which create a
potential conflict of interest.
For accounts of Alaska Wealth Advisors’s clients maintained
in custody at Schwab, Schwab will not charge the client
separately for custody but will receive compensation from
Alaska Wealth Advisors’s clients in the form of commissions
or other transaction-related compensation on securities
trades executed through Schwab. Schwab also will receive a
fee (generally lower than the applicable commission on trades
it executes) for clearance and settlement of trades executed
through broker-dealers other than Schwab. Schwab’s fees for
trades executed at other broker-dealers are in addition to the
other broker-dealer’s fees. Thus, Alaska Wealth Advisors has
an incentive to cause trades to be executed through Schwab
rather than another broker-dealer. Alaska Wealth Advisors
nevertheless acknowledges its duty to seek best execution
of trades for client accounts. Trades for client accounts held
in custody at Schwab may be executed through a different
broker-dealer than trades for Alaska Wealth Advisors’s other
clients. Thus, trades for accounts custodied at Schwab may
be executed at different times and different prices than trades
for other accounts that are executed at other broker-dealers.
We reserve the right to decline acceptance of any client
account for which the client directs the use of a broker other
than Schwab if we believe that this choice would hinder our
fiduciary duty to the client and/or our ability to service the
account. In directing the use of Schwab (or any other broker),
it should be understood that Alaska Wealth Advisors will not
have authority to negotiate commissions or to necessarily
obtain volume discounts, and best execution may not be
achieved. In addition, a disparity in commission charges may
exist between the commissions charged to the client and those
charged to other clients (who may direct the use of another
broker other than Schwab). Clients should note, while Alaska
Wealth Advisors has a reasonable belief that Schwab is able
to obtain best execution and competitive prices, our firm will
not be independently seeking best execution price capability
through other brokers.
Schwab Institutional also makes available to our firm other
products and services that benefit Alaska Wealth Advisors
but may not directly benefit our clients’ accounts. Many of
these products and services may be used to service all or a
substantial number of our client accounts, including accounts
not maintained at Schwab.
Schwab’s products and services that assist us in managing and
administering our clients’ accounts include software and other
technology that:
•
provide access to client account data (such as trade
confirmations and account statements);
•
facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade
orders for multiple client accounts;
provide research, pricing and other market data;
•
•
facilitate payment of our fees from clients’ accounts;
and
We use a third party platform to facilitate management of
held away assets such as defined contribution plan
participant accounts, with discretion. The platform allows us
to avoid being considered to have custody of Client funds
since we do not have direct access to Client log-in
credentials to affect trades. We are not affiliated with the
platform in any way and receive no compensation from
them for using their platform. A link will be provided to the
Client allowing them to connect an account(s) to the
platform. Once Client account(s) is connected to the
platform, Alaska Wealth Advisor’s will review the current
account allocations. When deemed necessary, Alaska
Wealth Advisor’s will rebalance the account considering
client investment goals and risk tolerance, and any change in
allocations will consider current economic and market
trends. The goal is to improve account performance over
time, minimize loss during difficult markets, and manage
internal fees that harm account performance. Client
account(s) will be reviewed at least quarterly and allocation
changes will be made as deemed necessary.

Client Referrals and Other Compensation
2) Alaska Wealth Advisors receives client referrals from
Wealthramp, Inc. who receives compensation from Alaska
Wealth Advisors for such services for the duration that
referrals are clients of Alaska Wealth Advisors. Wealthramp,
Inc. is a registered investment adviser with the SEC.
3) The White Coat Investor is not a client of Alaska Wealth
Advisors and is being compensated for listing our firm on
their website. According to an agreement with The White
Coat Investor, Alaska Wealth Advisors pays The White Coat
Investor for the website listing.
Custody
1) Alaska Wealth Advisors receives client referrals from
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) through Alaska Wealth
Advisors’s participation in Schwab Advisor Network® (“the
Service”). The Service is designed to help investors find an
independent investment advisor. Schwab is a broker-dealer
independent of and unaffiliated with Alaska Wealth Advisors
and does not supervise Alaska Wealth Advisors and has no
responsibility for Alaska Wealth Advisors’s management of
clients’ portfolios or other advice or services. Alaska Wealth
Advisors pays Schwab fees to receive client referrals through
the Service. Alaska Wealth Advisors’s participation in the
Service raise potential conflicts of interest as described below.
Pursuant to SEC guidance on the Custody Rule, Alaska Wealth
Advisors is deemed to have custody of client assets for clients
who have Standing Letters of Authorization (“SLOA”)
arrangements in place with their custodian allowing Alaska
Wealth Advisors to direct transfers of client assets to a third
party at the client’s request. In these situations, the SEC has
provided advisors with certain conditions that, if met, would
allow advisors to forego the annual surprise exam requirement
of the Custody Rule. Alaska Wealth Advisors will document
compliance with these conditions.
We do not take physical custody of client assets. With
specific client approval, we may deduct fees directly from
client accounts. Clients are responsible for selecting their own
custodian. We recommend that clients compare the account
statements received by the custodian to the statement we
prepare for them.
Investment Discretion
Alaska Wealth Advisors pays Schwab a Participation Fee on
all referred clients’ accounts that are maintained in custody
at Schwab and a Non-Schwab Custody Fee on all accounts
that are maintained at, or transferred to, another custodian.
The Participation Fee paid by Alaska Wealth Advisors is
a percentage of the fees the client owes to Alaska Wealth
Advisors or a percentage of the value of the assets in the
client’s account, subject to a minimum Participation Fee.
Alaska Wealth Advisors pays Schwab the Participation Fee
for so long as the referred client’s account remains in custody
at Schwab. The Participation Fee is billed to Alaska Wealth
Advisors quarterly and may be increased, decreased or waived
by Schwab from time to time. The Participation Fee is paid by
Alaska Wealth Advisors and not by the client. Alaska Wealth
Advisors has agreed not to charge clients referred through
the Service fees or costs greater than the fees or costs Alaska
Wealth Advisors charges clients with similar portfolios who
were not referred through the Service.
We have investment discretion on the assets we manage. We
accept investment discretion upon the execution of client
contract documents granting this authority. Clients may impose
reasonable restrictions on the management of their accounts.
Voting Client Securities
Alaska Wealth Advisors generally pays Schwab a Non-Schwab
Custody Fee if custody of a referred client’s account is not
maintained by, or assets in the account are transferred from
Schwab. This Fee does not apply if the client was solely
responsible for the decision not to maintain custody at Schwab.
The Non-Schwab Custody Fee is a one-time payment equal
to a percentage of the assets placed with a custodian other
than Schwab. The Non-Schwab Custody Fee is higher than
the Participation Fees Advisor generally would pay in a single
year. Thus, Alaska Wealth Advisors will have an incentive to
recommend that client accounts be held in custody at Schwab.
As a matter of policy and as a fiduciary to our clients, we
vote proxies for portfolio securities consistent with the best
economic interests of the clients. We vote proxies for debt
instruments and, with some exceptions, exchange-traded
funds and mutual funds. We do not vote proxies for individual
equities held at the client’s direction. Individual equities are held in
a client’s account as an accommodation to the client. Fees
may be calculated on such securities because they are included
in the overall management strategy, but they are not an
appropriate focus for research by Alaska Wealth Advisors or
APCM. Clients are notified that we do not vote these proxies.
Our policy and practice includes the responsibility to monitor
corporate actions, receive and vote client proxies, disclose any
potential conflicts of interest, and make information related
to proxies available to clients. The term proxy as used here
also includes corporate actions and tender offers for debt
instruments.
The Participation and Non-Schwab Custody Fees will be
based on assets in accounts of Alaska Wealth Advisors’s clients
who were referred by Schwab and those referred clients’
family members living in the same household. Thus, Alaska
incentives to encourage
Wealth Advisors will have
householdmembers of clients referred through the Service to
maintain custody of their accounts and execute transactions at
Schwab and to instruct Schwab to debit Alaska Wealth
Advisors’s fees directly from the accounts.

Additionally, we must disclose any financial condition that
could impair our ability to meet our contractual obligations
to our clients. We also must disclose if we have been the
subject of any bankruptcy proceedings within the last 10
years. We have no financial matters to disclose, and we have
never been the subject of any bankruptcy proceeding
Financial Information
As a privately held firm who does not have custody of
client assets, Alaska Wealth Advisors is not required to
undergo an audit of our financial statements. We do not
require clients to pay fees that are (a) greater than
$1,200 and (b) billed six months or more in advance.
