Item 4 - Advisory Business
Firm Description
Asset Planning Inc. was founded in 1998 by Sandra C. Field. The firm is federally registered with
the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) as a Registered Investment Advisor.
Asset Planning Inc. provides personal financial planning and investment management to
individuals, families, and their related entities, trusts and estates and family businesses. Asset
Planning Inc. works with clients to define financial objectives and to develop strategies for reaching
those objectives, some of which may include: identification of financial problems, cash flow and
budget management, investment management, tax planning, risk exposure review, education
funding, retirement planning, charitable goals, and/or other issues specific to the client.
The firm’s compensation is solely from fees paid directly by clients. The firm does not receive
commission based on the client’s purchase of any financial product, including insurance. No
commissions in any form are accepted. No referral fees are paid or accepted. No benefits are
received from custodians based on client securities transactions.
Assets under the direct management of Asset Planning Inc. are held by our independent custodian,
Charles Schwab & Co., in the client’s name. Asset Planning, Inc. does not act as a custodian of
client assets.
We may recommend other professionals (e.g., lawyers, accountants, insurance agents, etc.) at the
request of the client. Other professionals are engaged directly by the client on an as-needed basis
even when recommended by the Advisor. Conflicts of interest will be disclosed to the client and
managed in the best interest of the client.
Principal Owners
Sandra C. Field is a 52% stockholder of Asset Planning, Inc. Carol Somoano is 30% stockholder.
Erin Nelsen is a 18% stockholder. There are no intermediate subsidiaries.
Types of Advisory Services
The primary types of services offered by Asset Planning, Inc. are asset management and financial
planning.
In performing its services, Asset Planning, Inc. is not required to verify any information received
from the client or from the client’s other professionals. Each client is advised that it remains his/her
responsibility to promptly notify Asset Planning, Inc. when there is any change in his/her financial
situation and/or financial objectives for the purpose of reviewing, evaluating, or revising previous
recommendations and/or services.
The following are typical services offered to clients:
Asset Planning, Inc. provides Asset Management.
As of December 31, 2025, Asset Planning has $552,342,089 of assets under management on a
discretionary basis, and $1,122,777 of assets under management on a non-discretionary basis.
4
Services are based on the individual needs of the client. An initial interview and data gathering
questionnaire is undertaken to determine the client's financial situation and investment objectives.
The client is required to complete an Investment Policy and Objective Questionnaire to help
determine their risk tolerance. It is the client's responsibility to notify Asset Planning, Inc. at any
time there are changes. Clients may call in at any time during normal business hours to discuss
directly with us about the client's account, financial situation, or investment needs. Clients will
receive from the custodian firm timely confirmations and monthly statements containing a
description of all transactions and all account activity. The client will retain rights of ownership of
all securities and funds in the account to the same extent as if the client held the securities and funds
outside the program. In addition to custodial statements, Asset Planning, Inc. sends quarterly reports
to the client.
Asset Planning, Inc. provides Financial Plans consistent with the individual client's financial and
tax status and risk/reward objectives.
IRA Rollover Recommendations
Effective December 20, 2021 (or such later date as the US Department of Labor (“DOL”) Field
Assistance Bulletin 2018-02 ceases to be in effect), for purposes of complying with the DOL’s
Prohibition Transaction Exemption 2020-02 (“PTE 2020-02”) where applicable, we are providing
the following acknowledgement to you. When we provide investment advice regarding your
retirement plan or individual retirement account, we are fiduciaries within the meaning of Title 1 of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable,
which are laws governing retirement accounts. The way we make money creates some conflicts with
your interests, so we operate under a special rule that requires us to act in your best interest and not
put our interest ahead of yours. Under this special rule’s provisions, we must:
• Meet a professional standard of care when making investment recommendations
(give prudent advice);
• Never put our financial interests ahead of yours when making recommendations;
• Avoid misleading statements about conflicts of interest, fees and investments;
• Follow procedures designed to ensure that we give advice that is in your best interest;
• Charge no more than is reasonable for our services;
• Give you basic information about conflicts of interest.
Item 5 - Fees and Compensation
Description
Asset Planning, Inc. bases its fees as a percentage of assets under management, hourly charges,
and fixed fees depending on the client service provided. Fees may be negotiable.
Financial Planning
Fees for Financial Planning services are computed at an hourly rate. Various rates apply as
determined by the person performing the service as follows: The hourly rate may range from $250-
$500/hour. The rate will be determined by the associate serving the client, their experience level
and the complexity of the engagement. Since the nature of the work involves variables or
circumstances unknown at the start of the engagement, estimates may be given, but they are not
guaranteed. A deposit equal to one hour may be required. A signed contract is not required by either
party a verbal arrangement is used for most financial plan engagements.
Asset Management
5
Fees for Asset Management are computed at an annualized percentage of assets under management.
The maximum fee charged is 1%. Depending on the size of the account, fee breakpoints may be
given on accounts over $500,000.
These fees are for advisory services only and do not include any transaction fees, which may be
charged separately by the custodial firm. See the section heading Brokerage Practices for more
information.
Fee Billing
For Asset Management the fee will be payable quarterly in arrears. The first payment is assessed
and due at the end of the first calendar quarter and will be assessed pro rata in the event the
Agreement is executed at any time other than the first day of the current calendar quarter.
Subsequent payments are due and will be assessed on the first day after the end of each calendar
quarter based on the value of the account assets under supervision as of the close of business on the
last business day of that quarter.
Payment of fees may be paid directly by the client, or the client may authorize the custodian holding
client funds and securities to deduct Asset Planning, Inc. advisory fees directly from the client
account in accordance with statements prepared and submitted to the custodian by Asset Planning,
Inc. The custodian will provide periodic account statements to the client. Such statements will
reflect all fee withdrawals by Asset Planning, Inc. It is the client’s responsibility to verify the
accuracy of the fee calculation. The custodian will not determine whether the fee is properly
calculated.
Termination of Agreement
Asset Management services will continue until either party terminates the Agreement with written
notice. If termination occurs prior to the end of a calendar quarter, the client will be invoiced for
fees due on a pro-rata basis.
For Financial Plans, the client may terminate the engagement at any time and the client will owe a
fee for any work done up to the date of termination. The Financial Plan engagement terminates
upon delivery of the plan or services at which time all fees are due. At this time no refunds will be
made.
The Advisory Agreement contains a pre-dispute arbitration clause. Client understands that the
agreement to arbitrate does not constitute a waiver of the right to seek a judicial forum where such
a waiver would be void under the federal securities laws. Arbitration is final and binding on the
parties.
Compensation for Sales of Investment Products
The firm’s compensation is solely from fees paid directly by clients. The firm does not receive
commission based on the client’s purchase of any financial product, including insurance. No
commissions in any form are accepted.
Item 6 - Performance-Based Fees
Asset Planning, Inc. does not use a performance-based fee structure because of the potential conflict
of interest. Performance based compensation may create an incentive for the advisor to recommend
an investment that may carry a higher degree of risk to the client. However, the nature of asset-
based fees allows Asset Planning, Inc. to participate in the growth of the client’s wealth. This also
means that our fees can decline if the client’s portfolio declines in value.
6
Item 7 - Types of Clients
Asset Planning, Inc. provides advisory services to individuals, families, trusts, estates, pension and
profit-sharing plans and other ERISA accounts, and business entities.
Generally, for asset management the minimum account size for Sandra C. Field is $1,000,000,
$500,000 for Carol Somoano and Erin Nelsen. The minimum account size is waived for clients that
have had a complete financial plan prepared by Asset Planning, Inc.
There is no minimum for clients retaining financial planning services.
Item 8 - Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis
Security analysis methods at Asset Planning, Inc. include fundamental analysis. The main sources
of information is mainly internet research including Morningstar reports, fund prospectuses,
financial newspapers and magazines, research materials provided by others, filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commissions, and annual reports. Employees of Asset Planning, Inc. also
attend meetings with fund and portfolio managers, conference calls and industry conferences.
Investment Strategies
The primary investment strategy we use for clients is strategic asset allocation strategies for portfolio
management. We may use passive-managed index and exchange-traded funds when appropriate for
the client and actively-managed funds, dividend paying stocks and individual bonds and stocks
where there are opportunities to make a difference by security selection. Portfolios are generally
globally diversified to control the risk associated with traditional markets.
The investment strategy for a specific client is based upon the objectives, income needs, and tax
situation stated by the client during consultations. The client may change these objectives at any
time. The client’s goals and objectives are recorded during meetings and via correspondence with
the client. Each client portfolio is constructed solely for that client. We do not use model portfolios,
and we do not utilize composites to illustrate results.
Risk of Loss
All investment programs have certain risks that are borne by the investor. Our investment approach
keeps the risk of loss in mind. However, as with all investments, clients face investment risks
including the following: loss of principal risk, interest-rate risk, market risk, inflation risk, currency
risk, reinvestment risk, business risk, liquidity risk, and financial risk.
Item 9 - Disciplinary Information
Legal and Disciplinary
Asset Planning, Inc. and its employees have not been involved in any legal or disciplinary events
related to past or present activities.
7
Item 10 - Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Activities
Asset Planning, Inc. does not participate in any other business activities.
Affiliations
Asset Planning, Inc. does not have arrangements that are material to its advisory business or its
clients with any related person. We may at times recommend unrelated, third party investment
managers who have a greater expertise in certain disciplines when appropriate for the client; we do
not receive any compensation for the recommendation or selection of these investment advisors.
Item 11 - Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions, and
Personal Trading
Code of Ethics
Asset Planning, Inc. maintains a Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics sets forth standards of conduct
expected of advisory personnel; requires compliance with federal securities laws; and, addresses
conflicts that arise from personal trading by advisory personnel. Clients may request a copy of the
Code of Ethics.
Personal Trading
At times Asset Planning, Inc. and its employees may at times buy or sell securities that are also held
by clients. Employees may not trade their own securities ahead of client trades and will generally
be “last in” and “last out” for the trading day when trading occurs in close proximity to client trades.
We will not violate our fiduciary responsibilities to our clients. Incidental trading not deemed to
be a conflict (i.e. a purchase or sale which is minimal in relation to the total outstanding value, and
as such would have negligible effect on the market price), would not be disclosed at the time of
trading.
Item 12 - Brokerage Practices
Selection of Brokerage Firms
Asset Planning, Inc. does not have any affiliation with product sales firms. Specific custodian
recommendations are made to clients based on their need for such services. Asset Planning, Inc.
recommends custodians based on the proven integrity and financial responsibility of the firm, best
execution of orders at reasonable trade fees and the quality of client service. Asset Planning, Inc.
recommends discount brokerage firms and trust companies (qualified custodians), such as Charles
Schwab & Co.. The services offered by Charles Schwab & Co. to independent advisors include
custody of securities, trade execution, clearance and settlement of transactions.
Trading fees charged by the custodians are reviewed on an annual basis. Asset Planning, Inc. does
not receive any portion of trading fees. Asset Planning, Inc. may benefit from electronic delivery of
client information, electronic trading platform and other services provided by the custodians for the
benefit of clients. Asset Planning, Inc. may also benefit from other services provided by custodians,
such as research, continuing education, and practice management advice. These benefits are
standard in a relationship with these custodians and are not in return for client recommendations or
transactions.
8
Soft Dollars
Asset Planning, Inc. does not receive soft dollar benefits from the custodians to whom we
recommend clients. However, Asset Planning, Inc. does receive products and services from Charles
Schwab & Co. & Co. that may be used to service all or a substantial number of client accounts.
Schwab may waive or discount fees for these products or services at their discretion. Schwab may
also make available other services intended to help Asset Planning, Inc. manage and further develop
their business enterprise, including consulting, publications, practice management conferences,
information technology, and regulatory compliance.
As a fiduciary, we endeavor to act in our clients’ best interests at all times. Our recommendation
that clients maintain their assets at Schwab is based solely on the nature of cost or quality of custody
and brokerage services provided by the custodian.
Directed Brokerage
We do not direct brokerage for specific client transactions except individual municipal or corporate
bonds, for which we select the broker-dealer with the best pricing on each individual trade.
Trades in mutual funds do not garner any client benefit. However, when more than one account is
trading a particular stock or ETF on the same day, block trading may be used to get identical pricing
on the trades.
Item 13 - Review of Accounts
Asset Management
Asset Planning, Inc. monitors the individual investments under Asset Management each day the
market is open. Portfolio performance is reviewed on a quarterly basis at a minimum. Asset
Planning, Inc. offers clients an in-person portfolio review meeting whenever requested by the client.
Account reviews are performed more frequently when market conditions dictate, or when client’s
objectives change. A review may be triggered by client request, changes in market condition, new
information about an investment, changes in tax laws, or other important changes.
Account reviews are performed by Sandra C. Field, Carol Somoano or Erin Nelsen. The number of
households for which reviewer is responsible varies. The current total number of households is
approximately 375.
Financial Planning
The financial plan is a snapshot in time and no ongoing reviews are conducted. We recommend
clients engage us on an annual basis to review and update the financial plan.
Regular Reports
Asset Management and Retainer clients receive standard account statements from the custodians. Asset
Planning, Inc. also prepares a quarterly report package which includes our newsletter and quarterly reports
prepared from our portfolio accounting software. These reports include an asset allocation graph and report,
portfolio statement of holdings and a billing statement. Annual reports prepared include the annual portfolio
performance summary and tax related reports.
9
Item 14 - Client Referrals & Other Compensation
Incoming Referrals
Asset Planning, Inc. has been fortunate to receive many client referrals over the years. The referrals
have come from current clients, estate planning attorneys, accountants, and other sources. The firm
does not pay for referrals.
Referrals to Other Professionals
Asset Planning, Inc. does not accept referral fees or any form of remuneration from other
professionals when a client is referred to them.
Item 15 - Custody
Clients will receive account statements monthly from the custodian (Charles Schwab & Co. & Co,
Inc). Clients are urged to compare custodial account statements against statements prepared by
Asset Planning, Inc. for accuracy. Minor variations may occur because of reporting dates, accrual
methods of interest and dividends, and other factors. The custodial statement is the official record
of your account for tax purposes.
Item 16 - Investment Discretion
Discretionary Authority for Trading
Asset Management Clients: Asset Planning, Inc. accepts discretionary authority to manage
securities accounts on behalf of clients. Asset Planning, Inc. has the authority without obtaining
specific client consent, the securities to be bought or sold, and the amount of the securities to be
bought or sold. Clients must sign a limited power of attorney before Asset Planning, Inc. is given
discretion authority. The limited power of attorney is included in the qualified custodian’s account
application for our custodian, Charles Schwab & Co..
Retainer Management clients: Asset Planning, Inc. does not have discretion over these client
accounts. A limited power of attorney, limited to the power of executing trades on a non-
discretionary basis will be obtained from clients.
Asset Planning, Inc. does not have authority to take custody of client funds or securities, other than
under the terms of the Fee Payment Authorization clause in the Agreement with the client.
Item 17 - Voting Client Securities
Asset Planning, Inc. does not vote proxies. It is the client's responsibility to vote proxies. Clients
will receive proxy materials directly from the custodian. Questions about proxies may be made via
the contact information on the cover page.
Item 18 - Financial Information
Financial Condition
Asset Planning, Inc. does not have any financial impairment that will preclude the firm from meeting
contractual commitments to clients. A balance sheet is not required to be provided because Asset
Planning, Inc. does not serve as a custodian for client funds or securities and does not require
prepayment fees.
