ADVISORY SERVICES (Item 4)
About Our Business
Capital Endurance Group, Inc. (also referred to herein as “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a wealth management firm that
provides advice regarding portfolio management strategies and financial planning consultations. Our firm is a
Georgia corporation that began managing our clients’ investments and providing financial advice in 2011. We
are registered pursuant to the investment advisor regulations of the states of Georgia and North Carolina.
Mr. Patrick M. Dailey is our firm's principal owner, chief compliance officer, and an investment advisor
representative.
Types of Advisory Services
As a wealth management firm, we provide portfolio management strategies that incorporate goals-based
financial planning solutions. A detailed explanation of our services is as follows:
1. Comprehensive Wealth Management Services
Our comprehensive wealth management services combine our discretionary portfolio management strategies
and financial planning methodologies. These services incorporate the financial planning solutions outlined
below. Utilizing financial planning techniques allows us to tailor investment advice and design a more
personalized asset allocation strategy to meet a client’s specific financial goals and objectives.
The discretionary portfolio management strategies include investment advice regarding exchange-traded
funds, mutual funds, closed-end mutual funds, common stocks, fixed income securities, municipal bonds,
corporate bonds, publicly traded real estate investment trusts, exchange-traded notes, commodities, and
alternative investments, such as hedge funds and private real estate investments.
When implementing comprehensive wealth management services, we typically construct a client’s portfolio
using asset class allocations to exchange-traded funds, and also utilize mutual funds, fixed-income securities,
and other securities based on a client’s financial circumstances. Also, based on a client’s investment goals, net
worth, annual income, and financial circumstances, we may recommend alternative investments to augment a
client’s portfolio holdings.
2. Stand-Alone Limited Engagement Financial Planning Services
We offer stand-alone, limited engagement financial planning services for clients interested solely in financial
planning. Our financial plans are developed by evaluating data related to our clients’ financial circumstances,
investment goals and objectives, and tax status.
Our financial plan or planning report may include, but is not limited to, information regarding a client’s net
worth calculations and cash flow analysis, consumption and debt planning, retirement planning, college
planning, advanced education planning, estate planning issues, executive compensation planning, and wealth
transfer matters. For estate planning and wealth transfer matters, we offer access to an automated platform
that assists clients in preparing foundational estate documents such as trusts, wills, powers of attorney, etc. Our
firm does not provide legal advice; we only facilitate access to the platform that generates the estate planning
support documents. Additionally, we evaluate client needs for asset protection and risk management. The
financial plan or planning report is delivered within three (3) months of commencing financial planning
services.
Our firm will not be responsible for implementing any recommendations in a written financial plan prepared
pursuant to a stand-alone limited engagement financial planning services engagement. We will not supervise
the implementation of the financial planning recommendations unless a client enters into a separate investment
management agreement for comprehensive wealth management services.
If a client who has engaged us for stand-alone limited financial planning services decides to utilize us to
implement the recommendations, such an engagement is pursuant to a separate advisory agreement. Clients
are advised that our receipt of fees for financial planning and comprehensive wealth management services
creates conflicts of interest. When a limited engagement financial planning client engages us for comprehensive
wealth management services within twelve (12) months of the engagement, we mitigate the conflicts of interest
associated with our firm receiving advisory fees for both services by applying the advisory fees paid for stand-
alone limited financial planning services to the client’s annual comprehensive wealth management fees.
Please note that clients are not obligated to implement our financial planning recommendations. Moreover, if
a client elects to implement our financial planning recommendations, there is no obligation to implement the
recommendations through our firm. Clients may implement recommendations with any professional advisor.

Tailored Services
Our advice and services are based on the individual needs of a client after analyzing and thoroughly evaluating
each client’s goals, objectives, investment horizon, and risk tolerance. Clients may impose restrictions on
investing in certain asset classes or specific types of securities by advising their investment advisor
representative of such restrictions.
Wrap Fee Programs
We are not a participant in any wrap fee program.
Assets Under Management
We manage a total of $118,988,832* in client assets on a discretionary basis. *Our asset values are based on
calculations as of December 31, 2025.

Our comprehensive wealth management fee schedule is negotiable at our sole discretion. The final fee is

fees based on specific criteria we deem pertinent (e.g., preexisting relationships, related accounts). Please
review the Types of Clients section for details regarding our minimum investment requirements.
2. Stand-Alone Limited Engagement Financial Planning Services
Our fixed fees for stand-alone limited engagement financial planning services range from $2,000 to $10,000,
with a minimum fee of $2,000. Beyond the minimum, our fees are negotiable, and the final fee is detailed in
our financial planning agreement.
Our fee assessment considers qualitative factors such as life stage, the complexity of the client’s financial
situation, whether the written financial plan is comprehensive or focuses on a specific planning matter (e.g.,
consumption and debt planning only or retirement benefits optimization only), the client’s requests and needs,
and the level of detail required for the financial plan or planning report.
Upon engagement for stand-alone limited financial planning, clients receive a best-efforts advisory fee estimate.
We provide this estimate for client approval and acceptance. The best-efforts fee estimate reflects the most
advantageous fee structure based on the scope of services, the complexity of the client’s financial matters, or
the client’s requests and needs. An initial payment of fifty percent (50%) of this estimate is due, with the
remaining balance payable upon delivery of the financial plan or planning report. A written financial plan or
planning report will be delivered within three (3) months from the commencement of the engagement.

Billing Procedures
Our billing procedures for advisory services are as follows:
1. Billing for Comprehensive Wealth Management Services
Our comprehensive wealth management services fee is an annual asset-based advisory fee. Advisory fees are
due and payable quarterly in advance (at the beginning of the billing period). We calculate advisory fees using
the aggregate value of all accounts for each client (e.g., household). Upon signing our investment management
agreement, clients provide written authorization to have advisory fees deducted directly from their specified
advisory account(s).
We send the advisory fee calculations to the account custodian electronically, no later than one week after the
beginning of each calendar quarter. Advisory fee calculations are based on the value of assets in the account(s),
including cash equivalents, at the closing price on the last trading day of the calendar quarter, as listed on a
national securities exchange or the principal market where the securities are traded and supplied by the account
custodian. Additionally, billing valuations for fixed income securities often include accrued interest.
Furthermore, margin interest, if applicable, will accrue monthly.
It is also important to note that due to differences in valuation dates (trade date vs. settlement date), application
of credits for accrued income, and/or accrued interest, if applicable, asset values used for advisory fee billing
can differ from the asset values shown on the account custodian’s statement. Please contact us if you have
questions regarding advisory fee billing calculations.
Additionally, if we recommend alternative investments, advisory fees are assessed in accordance with the
comprehensive wealth management services fee schedule outlined in the Fees and Compensation Section. The
value of any alternative investment, which generally reflects the initial purchase (or the most recent valuation
reported by the issuer or account custodian), is included in the value of a client’s aggregate “assets under
management” (i.e., included with the value of all advisory accounts) when calculating advisory fees.
2. Billing for Stand-Alone Limited Engagement Financial Planning Services
Our fees for stand-alone limited engagement financial planning services are billed in advance. Upon
engagement for stand-alone financial planning services, we provide clients with a best-efforts advisory fee
estimate based on the anticipated services for review and approval. Upon the client’s acceptance of the estimate,
a fifty percent (50%) deposit of the financial planning fee is due to us before commencing services. The
remaining balance is due upon delivery of the financial plan or planning report. Financial plans and planning
reports are delivered within three (3) months of commencing services.
Upon delivering the financial plan or planning report, we provide a final advisory fee invoice that delineates the
total stand-alone limited engagement financial planning services fee, the application of the fifty percent (50%)
deposit paid, and the remaining balance due for services. Advisory fee invoices are transmitted to clients in
person, electronically, or by mail, and payment is due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Clients pay
the final advisory fee invoice by mailing a check to our address.
Other Fees & Expenses
Clients will also incur additional costs and expenses (“third-party fees”) related to investment management
and advisory services. These fees may include, but are not limited to, no-load mutual fund ticket charges,
brokerage transaction costs, deferred sales charges on previously purchased mutual funds, individual
retirement account (IRA) maintenance fees, and other legal or transfer fees. The account custodians, broker-
dealers, mutual fund companies, and other providers of account services charge these fees, and clients are
responsible for all third-party fees and expenses.
In addition to the third-party fees outlined above, clients incur other expenses that result from fees charged by
the investment companies that issue mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and money market funds to which
client assets are allocated. As of the date of this Brochure, our account custodians do not charge transaction
fees for trades in U.S. exchange-listed equities and exchange-traded funds. Nonetheless, mutual funds,
exchange-traded funds, and money market funds have internal fees and expenses, as detailed in each fund
company’s prospectus, where applicable. These fees and expenses are paid by mutual funds or investment
companies but are ultimately passed on to clients through each fund’s expense ratio.
Advisory fees paid to our firm are separate from the third-party fees detailed above. Please also see Item 12,
Brokerage Practices, for details about the qualified account custodians that provide custody and
safekeeping services for our clients’ accounts.

Refund Policy
Clients who do not receive this Brochure at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of signing our advisory
agreement are afforded the right to terminate their agreement within five (5) business days, without penalty.
Upon expiration of the five (5) business day period, our refund procedures are as follows:
Comprehensive Wealth Management
Clients may terminate our investment management agreement at any time by providing us with thirty (30) days’
advance written notice. Upon receipt of a termination request, we will assess fees pro rata to the date of
termination. We refund any unearned portion of prepaid fees within fourteen (14) business days.
Any balance for unpaid fees due to our firm will be collected prior to the disbursement of refunds, if applicable.
If we are unable to deduct final advisory fees from a client’s advisory account(s), such as in the case of an account
transfer, we will transmit a final advisory fee invoice to the client, which is due upon receipt. Clients pay final
advisory fee invoices by mailing a check to our address.
Stand-Alone Limited Engagement Financial Planning
Under the terms of our financial planning agreement, our financial planning services are complete upon the
delivery of a written financial plan or planning report. If required, clients must enter into a new agreement for
supplemental financial planning services.
Nonetheless, clients may terminate services prior to the end of the engagement by providing thirty (30) days’
prior written notice to our firm. Upon receiving a client’s request to terminate our financial planning services
prior to the end of the engagement, we will assess advisory fees pro rata as of the date of receipt of the notice of
termination using the hourly rate of $350 and the number of business days remaining until delivery of the
financial plan or planning report as outlined in the financial planning agreement.
We will refund any unearned portion of prepaid advisory fees within fourteen (14) business days of the date of
termination. Advisory fee refunds will be issued by check and mailed to the client’s address of record.
Other Compensation
We do not accept any compensation for the sale of securities or other investment products. Our investment
advisor representatives are not registered in any securities sales capacity.
PERFORMANCE-BASED FEES AND SIDE-BY-SIDE MANAGEMENT (Item 6)
Our firm does not charge performance-based fees or conduct side-by-side investment product management.
TYPES OF CLIENTS (Item 7)
We generally provide investment advice to individuals and high net worth individuals.
We require a minimum investment value of $2,000,000 for comprehensive wealth services engagements.
Nonetheless, we reserve the right to waive the minimum investment requirement based on other criteria we
deem pertinent (e.g., preexisting relationships, related accounts, the anticipation of additional assets within the
next twelve (12) months, etc.). Therefore, some clients may have investment values below the stated minimum.
METHODS OF ANALYSIS, INVESTMENT STRATEGIES, AND RISK OF LOSS (Item 8)
Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies
We have experience researching and investing in all types of securities and asset classes, including stocks,
mutual funds, exchange traded funds, convertible securities, U.S. government securities, corporate bonds, other
fixed-income securities, warrants, commodities, currencies, and real estate related assets.
Tenets of Investment Philosophy
Utilizing advances in Modern Portfolio Theory (“MPT”), we attempt to reduce uncompensated risks in
portfolios by selecting asset classes whose risks increase expected returns over time. We determine asset
location based on the tax sensitivity of the underlying security and the availability of tax-favorable investment
vehicles. We invest in low-cost and low-turnover securities that focus on individual asset classes with little or
no style drift. We typically recommend mutual funds and exchange-traded funds for client portfolio holdings,
and, occasionally, if suitable, fixed income securities, options, and alternative investments.
We generally implement advice using a range of investment strategies, including long-term purchases, short-
term purchases, active trading, and short sales. We may increase the number and extent of a portfolio’s “long”
positions by borrowing (e.g., purchasing securities on margin). Quantitative analytics are utilized in some of
CEG BROCHURE
7
Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
our investment activities to select securities or manage investment risk. Also, if and when implemented, our
option strategies include covered options, uncovered options, spreads, and straddles.
As mentioned above, depending on a client’s specific financial goals and circumstances, we may also
recommend unaffiliated third-party alternative investments to augment a client’s portfolio holdings. Some
alternative investments include liquid alternatives, such as publicly traded real estate investment trusts, and
illiquid alternatives, such as interests in private placement offerings, hedge funds, or private equity funds. Our
due diligence processes for alternative investments include, but are not limited to, reviewing the issuer’s
offering, pricing criteria, financial strength, reputation, investment strategy, performance, liquidity, and
reporting methodologies, among other factors.
When considering alternative investments as a holding for client portfolios, we review a client’s financial
circumstances, net worth, annual income, and overall investment goals. Moreover, we generally limit
alternative investment holdings to ten percent (10%) or less of a client’s portfolio holdings. Alternative
investment strategies are only recommended to clients who meet the financial parameters of an accredited
investor or qualified client. Clients are not obligated to consider investments in alternative strategies.
Material Risks of Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies
INVESTING IN SECURITIES INVOLVES A RISK OF LOSS THAT CLIENTS SHOULD BE PREPARED TO
BEAR. CLIENTS MAY LOSE ALL OR A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF THEIR INVESTMENT.
Notwithstanding the method of analysis or investment strategy employed, there is no guarantee that portfolio
holdings or investment assets will achieve the desired investment objectives. Clients can lose money by
investing based on our strategies, and the client alone will bear such losses. The value of a client’s portfolio
holdings may be affected by one or more of the following risks, any of which could cause a portfolio’s return,
price of shares, or yield to fluctuate:
v General Market Risk. Markets fluctuate, moving up or down based on news releases or, at times, for no
apparent reason. This uncertainty means that, at times, the price of specific securities may increase or
decrease without a discernible reason and may take a while to recover any lost value. Adding additional
securities to the portfolio might not lower this risk, as all securities can be affected by market swings. Market
fluctuations will ultimately affect a client’s portfolio holdings.
v Quantitative Tools Risk. Some of our investment techniques incorporate or rely upon quantitative models.
There is no guarantee that these models will generate accurate forecasts, reduce risks, or otherwise produce
the intended results. We review the accuracy of our models periodically.
v Interest Rate Risk. Changes in interest rates will affect the value of fixed income investment holdings. The
value of fixed income securities is more inclined to decrease as interest rates increase. This decrease in
value may not be offset by income from new investments or other investment holdings. Interest rate risk is
generally greater for fixed income securities with longer maturities.
v Credit Risk. Generally, the degrees of risk for fixed income assets are reflected in their credit rating. Issuers
or guarantors of investment assets may be unable or unwilling to make timely payments of interest or
principal or honor their obligations otherwise. The issuers or guarantors may default, resulting in a loss of
the full principal amount of fixed income assets. There is a risk that the credit rating of a fixed income asset
may experience a downgrade after purchase, which could adversely affect its value and investment holdings.
v Asset Allocation Risk. The asset classes represented in the composition of a client’s portfolio can perform
differently from each other at any given time and over the long term. A client’s investments will be affected
by allocating equity securities (e.g., stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, etc.), cash equivalents,
fixed income securities, and occasionally alternative investments. If any asset class that comprises a client’s
holdings underperforms, the performance of other asset classes may suffer.
v Time Horizon Risk. A client may require the liquidation of portfolio holdings earlier than the stated time
horizon. If liquidations occur when portfolio values are low, the client will not realize as much value as the
client would have if the portfolio holdings had the opportunity to gain value (or regain value) as investments
frequently do.
v Liquidity Risks. Liquidity risks arise when portfolio holdings or assets cannot easily be converted to cash.
Liquidity refers to the ability to quickly transform an investment into cash. Investments that lack liquidity
are difficult to buy or sell at favorable prices. Some investment vehicles are very liquid, while others are not.
For example, Treasury Bills are highly liquid, whereas real estate is not. An illiquid investment carries
greater risk than other types of securities, as it may be difficult to sell illiquid investments at fair market
value.
CEG BROCHURE

Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
Margin Risk. Margin is a loan issued to clients that permits leverage of current portfolio holdings, increases
buying power for additional positions/investments, facilitates advanced trading strategies (e.g., options,
short sales, etc.), or uses it as a line of credit. When margin is used as leverage, clients seek to enhance
returns. Leverage can be described as exposure to changes in the price of an investment at a ratio greater
than 1:1 relative to the amount invested.
Clients who elect to trade on margin will enter into a separate agreement directly with the account
custodian’s clearing firm. If a client requests margin and the strategy aligns with the investment goals that
our firm has implemented, we will instruct the client to complete and submit the account custodian’s
margin application for approval.
Using margin as leverage magnifies both the favorable and unfavorable effects of price movements in the
investments placed on margin, which may subject the portfolio holdings to a substantial risk of loss. If there
is a sudden, steep drop in the value of one or more portfolio holdings, the aggregate value of a client’s
holdings may also decline. An additional risk is that we may not be able to liquidate assets quickly enough
to meet margin or borrowing obligations during market declines. The obligation to meet additional margin
or other payment requirements could worsen as the value of portfolio holdings declines.
Also, because acquiring and maintaining portfolio holdings on margin allows a client to hold positions
worth significantly more than the investment in those positions, the amount a client stands to lose in the
event of adverse price movements is higher relative to the amount of the investment. Also, since margin is
a loan subject to interest, using margin increases account expenses.
Clients should refer to the margin agreement with the account custodian’s clearing firm for all terms and
conditions of a margin arrangement, including all related fees and expenses.
v Option Transactions Risk. Options are subject to risk factors that include but are not limited to volatility,
lack of liquidity in underlying markets, state of the economy, and any legal, political, or geographic event
that impacts the underlying security. The buying or selling of options involves the payment or receipt of a
premium payment and the corresponding right or obligation, as the case may be, to either purchase or sell
the underlying security for a specific price at a certain time or during a certain period. Purchasing options
involves the risk that the underlying security does not change in price in the manner expected so that the
option expires worthless, and the investor loses the premium. On the other hand, selling options involves
potentially greater risk because the investor is exposed to the actual price movement in the underlying
investment in excess of the premium payment received. For more information regarding the risks
associated with options, please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options brochure,
available at the website: www.theocc.com.
v Fixed Income Securities Risk. Fixed income securities include bonds or other securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government (its agencies), or U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, states,
territories, local governments (and their agencies), and corporate debt securities of issuers, including
convertible securities and corporate commercial paper (e.g., U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Agency
securities, municipal bonds, investment grade bonds, non-investment grade bonds, etc.). The market value
of fixed-income securities is sensitive to changes in interest rates. Generally, when interest rates rise, the
value of fixed income securities declines, and when interest rates decline, the market value increases.
Usually, the longer the remaining maturity of a fixed income security, the greater the effect of interest rate
changes on the market value. In addition, changes in the issuer’s ability to make payments of interest and
principal and the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness can affect the market value of its fixed-
income securities.
Fixed income securities are also subject to inflation, liquidity, and reinvestment risks. Inflation risk is the
risk that inflation will erode the purchasing power of the cash flows generated by debt securities. Fixed-
rate debt securities are more susceptible to inflation risk than floating-rate debt securities. Liquidity risk is
the risk that certain fixed income securities may be difficult to sell at a particular time or at an acceptable
price, which may cause a client’s portfolio to hold these securities for longer periods than planned or forgo
other investment opportunities, which creates a reinvestment risk.
v Municipal Securities Risk. Municipal securities issuers may face local economic or business conditions
(including bankruptcy) and litigation, legislation, or other political events that could significantly affect the
ability of the municipality to make payments on the interest or principal of its municipal bonds.
Municipalities issue municipal securities to finance projects, such as education, healthcare, transportation,
infrastructure, and public services, and conditions in those sectors can affect the overall municipal bond
market. Moreover, changes in the financial condition of one municipality may affect the overall municipal
bond market. The municipal obligations in which clients invest are subject to credit risk, market risk,
interest rate risk, credit spread risk, selection risk, call and redemption risk, and tax risk, and the occurrence
CEG BROCHURE
9
Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
of any one of these risks may materially and adversely affect the value of a client’s portfolio holdings or
assets.
v Investment Company Securities Risk. Investments in investment company securities such as mutual
funds, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), and/or closed-end mutual funds have risks. This risk disclosure
focuses on mutual funds, including closed-end mutual funds. See specific details regarding the risks
associated with ETFs below. The risks associated with investing in mutual funds and closed-end mutual
funds involve substantially the same risks as investing directly in the underlying securities (i.e., general
market risks, interest rate risks, financial risks, time-horizon risks, liquidity risks, etc.). There are also risks
that mutual funds and closed-end mutual funds may not achieve their investment objective or execute their
investment strategy effectively, which may adversely affect the performance of a client’s portfolio.
Additionally, clients pay a pro rata portion of the fees, expenses, and taxes associated with investment
company securities, which will likely impact the value of a client’s portfolio holdings.
v Exchange-Traded Funds Risk. There are risks associated with investing in exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
ETFs are offered for all asset classes, industries, sectors, and markets. There are two (2) general
management styles for ETFs: passive and active. Details regarding the management techniques and
associated risks are as follows:
Passively Managed ETFs represent an interest in a portfolio of securities designed to track an underlying
benchmark or index. These ETFs typically seek to track an underlying benchmark or index; the ETF may
or may not hold all securities in the underlying benchmark or index. ETFs are also subject to price
variations. ETFs trade throughout the day, and market prices are generally at or near the most recent net
asset value (NAV). However, certain market inefficiencies may cause the shares to trade at a premium or
discount to the stated NAV. For example, a high volume of market sales may cause ETFs to trade at a price
below the value of the underlying NAV.
Actively Managed ETFs are designed to outperform an index. These portfolios generally expose a high
percentage of net assets to a fixed list of investments (e.g., U.S. exchange-listed equity securities, U.S.
exchange-traded funds that provide exposure to U.S. exchange-listed equity securities, U.S. exchange-listed
equity securities of non-U.S. issuers, including the securities of non-U.S. issuers traded on U.S. exchanges
in the form of depository receipts, etc.). The ETF may also have exposure to futures, other derivatives, and
long and short positions, which may not perform as expected. These securities are subject to the risk that
they may not effectively outperform an index, industry, or other markets they intend to outperform. In
addition to the risk that portfolio expenses reduce returns, there is the risk that ETF portfolio managers’
strategies are unsuccessful, that the investment is illiquid or has low trading volume, and that it may not
perform as expected, resulting in losses.
Moreover, as with any security, there is no guarantee that an active secondary market for such ETF shares
will continue to exist. Also, the redemption of ETFs can be limited. Only an authorized participant (typically
broker-dealers that act as liquidity providers) may engage in the creation or redemption transactions of an
ETF. Furthermore, ETFs typically have a limited number of broker-dealers that may act as authorized
participants. To the extent that authorized participants exit the business or are unable to proceed with
creation or redemption orders, and no other authorized participant can step forward, the liquidity of an
ETF is likely to be impacted and could result in trading halts or delisting.
v Nontraditional Exchange-Traded Fund Risk. Nontraditional exchange-traded funds (ETFs) include
leveraged, inverse, or inverse-leveraged ETFs. Levered ETFs seek to deliver multiples of the performance
of an underlying index or benchmark for a specified period (usually a single day). Inverse ETFs are
generally “short positions” seeking to deliver the opposite of an underlying index or benchmark for a
specified period of time. Inverse-leveraged ETFs seek to deliver multiples of the opposite of an underlying
index or benchmark for a specified period. Due to the effect of compounding, their performance over more
extended periods of time can differ significantly from the performance, which can be magnified in volatile
markets. Inverse ETFs reset daily and are designed to achieve their stated objectives daily.
Nontraditional ETFs are not long-term investments. They are extremely speculative and can be quite
volatile. Investments in nontraditional ETFs should be monitored daily to ensure that the risks associated
with such investments remain appropriate for a client’s portfolio holdings, especially during volatile
markets when risks intensify.
v Bitcoin ETF Risk. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, also referred to as “virtual currency,” “digital
currency,” or “digital assets,” have no true or actual value but act as a medium of exchange where algorithms
or specific peer-to-peer communities determine its value. If suitable for a client, we will purchase a Bitcoin
ETF or other ETFs that invest in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Therefore, clients will have exposure

to bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, directly or indirectly, through an investment such as an ETF or other
investment vehicles.
Bitcoin ETFs do not invest in digital assets directly. These ETFs use derivatives such as Spot Bitcoin
markets to value an ETF that invests in digital assets is likely to be highly volatile and subject to fluctuations
due to several factors, including the price of bitcoin, manipulative trading activity on digital asset
exchanges, which, in many cases, are largely unregulated, investor sentiment and expectations with respect
to interest rates, the rates of inflation, and trading activities of large investors that invest directly or
indirectly in bitcoin.
Generally, the investment objective of Bitcoin ETFs is to reflect the performance of the spot price of bitcoin
as measured using a benchmark, less expenses, and other liabilities. The value of bitcoin is determined
based on the fair market value price for bitcoin, which reflects the execution price of bitcoin on the principal
market where it is traded, as determined by independent third-party digital asset data companies that
provide the benchmark. The market price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has been subject to extreme
fluctuations and has experienced losses.
Purchases of Bitcoin ETFs or ETFs that invest in other digital assets are highly speculative and only suitable
for clients whose financial circumstances can endure a loss of the entire investment. The ETF will typically
process all creations and redemptions in transactions with financial firms that are authorized participants.
Creation and redemption transactions will initially take place in cash. The authorized participants will
deliver only cash to create shares and will receive only cash when redeeming shares. If a broker-dealer or
account custodian charges commissions, buying or selling shares of the ETF will incur customary brokerage
commissions and charges. Trades may occur at a premium or discount relative to the net asset value (NAV)
per share of the ETF. Nonetheless, authorized participants may cease to operate or shut down if the
exchanges are subject to fraud, technical glitches, hackers, or malware.
Bitcoin ETFs or ETFs that invest in other digital assets or virtual currency involve significant risks, and such
risks are similar to those involved with direct investment in digital assets or virtual currency, which are
speculative securities. These investments also involve various additional risk factors, including, but not
limited to, the potential for complete loss of principal, liquidity constraints, and lack of transparency.
v General Risks Related to Digital Assets. Digital assets, such as bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, often
referred to as “virtual currency” or “digital currency,” are mediums of exchange without actual value. These
assets are not backed by a government issued legal tender, and its worth is determined by online, peer-to-
peer networks where ownership and behavior are governed by participants. Digital currency exists on a
blockchain, a type of shared and continually reconciled database that stores digital assets in a decentralized
manner on the computers of certain users.
Price or Value Disparities. The price of digital assets is unstable and often impacted by the behavior of a
small number of influential individuals or companies. The historical volatility of digital assets may be due
to speculation regarding potential future appreciation in value, which could adversely affect prices. The
potential for a rapid decline in the value of these assets is driven by the speculative nature and the influence
of a few key individuals or entities on the price.
Regulatory Risk. Investors are not granted ownership rights in digital assets in the same manner as
traditional investments that trade on regulated exchanges. Additionally, investors do not benefit from
protections associated with federal and state securities laws. Furthermore, the uncertain and potentially
changing tax treatment of digital assets could negatively impact the value of digital assets.
Cybersecurity Risk. Certain digital asset networks are subject to control by entities that capture a significant
amount of the network’s processing power, a significant percentage of the digital assets issued and
outstanding, or a significant number of developers or intermediaries important for the operation and
maintenance of such digital asset network. Blockchain networks secured by a proof-of-work algorithm
depend on the strength of the processing power of participants to protect the network. If a malicious actor
or botnet (a volunteer or hacked collection of computers controlled by networked software coordinating the
actions of the computers) obtains a majority of the processing power dedicated to mining on a digital asset
network, it may be able to alter the blockchain on which the network and most transactions rely by
constructing fraudulent blocks or preventing certain transactions from completing in a timely manner, or
at all. The malicious actor or botnet could control, exclude, or modify transactions. A significant disruption
in internet connectivity could also disrupt a digital asset’s network operations until the disruption is
resolved, thereby having an adverse effect on the price of digital assets. Investments in digital assets directly
or indirectly involve various additional risk factors, including the potential for liquidity constraints and the
complete loss of principal.

Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
v Alternative Investment Risk. Investments in alternative securities include liquid options like business
development companies and publicly traded real estate investment trusts. Illiquid alternatives include
interests in private equity funds, hedge funds, special purpose vehicles, and private real estate investment
trusts, among others. Alternative investments are customarily illiquid. Usually, these investments are
issued by companies that are not publicly traded, and consequently, in most cases, there is generally no
public market for the shares or interests. Alternative investments are long-term investment vehicles that
are highly speculative and suitable only for clients whose financial circumstances can endure significant
losses. Investing in alternative strategies involves additional risks, including, but not limited to, the
potential for complete loss of principal, liquidity constraints, and lack of transparency.
v Risks Related to Private Funds. Private Funds are faced with regulatory risks in that interests in the Private
Funds generally are not registered under federal or state securities laws, nor are they subject to regulation
by the SEC or other regulators. In addition, when investing in Private Funds, Clients may not be protected
by federal or state securities laws other than certain anti-fraud provisions of those laws. There are also
concentration risks, in that certain Private Funds may not establish concentration limits with respect to
particular securities, industries, or sectors. Investment strategy risk exists in that Private Funds may
concentrate their investments in a limited number of securities or other interests, including securities that
are not publicly registered, listed, or traded, which invests in Private Funds is highly speculative and risky.
Private Funds also lack liquidity because interests are generally illiquid, and no market may exist for the
Private Funds’ interests. There are substantial restrictions with respect to their transferability and resale.
There are also risks related to the lack of transparency. Private Fund investors may receive limited
information due to proprietary or confidentiality concerns.
Additional information about applicable risks is outlined in a Private Fund’s term sheet, private placement
memorandum, or other offering document or disclosure document provided in connection with an
investment in such a Private Fund. Clients are encouraged to read those risk disclosures carefully. This
information is qualified in its entirety by reference to the respective risk disclosures, and in the event of any
conflict or inconsistency, clients and investors should rely on the respective risk disclosures.
v Exchange-Traded Notes Risk. Exchange-traded notes (ETNs) are subject to credit, liquidity, and supply
risks. ETNs are senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities whose returns are linked to the
performance of a particular benchmark or strategy minus applicable fees. ETNs are traded during regular
trading hours; however, clients can also hold the ETN until maturity. At maturity, the issuer pays clients a
cash amount equal to the principal amount, subject to the day’s benchmark or strategy factor.
ETNs do not make periodic coupon payments or provide principal protection. ETNs are subject to credit
risk, and the value of the ETN may drop due to a downgrade in the issuer’s credit rating, despite the
underlying benchmark or strategy remaining unchanged. The value of an ETN may also be influenced by
time to maturity, level of supply and demand, volatility, and lack of liquidity in underlying assets, changes
in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer’s credit rating, and economic, legal, political, or
geographic events that affect the referenced underlying asset. When clients invest in ETNs, their portfolio
will bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses borne by the ETN. The availability of a secondary
market may limit our decision to sell an ETN portfolio holding. ETNs are also subject to tax risk. The
government and tax agencies may implement changes to the tax code that change the timing and character
of income and gains from ETNs. There may also be times when ETN shares trade at a premium or discount
to the benchmark or strategy.
v Risks Related to Real Estate Investment Trusts. Investing in publicly traded real estate investment trusts
(REITS) involves risks similar to those associated with investing in the real estate industry. The
performance of publicly traded REITS depends on the types, values, and locations of the properties it owns
and how well those properties are managed. Some general risks include but are not limited to possible
declines in the value of real estate, variations in rental payments, changes in interest rates, general and local
economic conditions, increases in the rate of inflation, increases in property taxes and operating expenses,
changes in zoning laws, costs resulting from the cleanup of environmental problems, and uninsured
damages from floods, earthquakes or other natural disasters.
Since REITS may be invested in a limited number of projects or a particular market segment, these
investments may be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting a single project or market segment
than more broadly diversified investments. Additionally, loss of status as a qualified real estate investment
trust under the U.S. federal tax laws could adversely affect the value of a particular real estate investment
trust or the market for REITS.

v Risks Related to Public Health Issues. Our advisory business could be adversely affected materially by
pandemics, epidemics, and global or regional outbreaks of disease, such as but not limited to COVID-19,
Ebola, H1N1 flu, H7N9 flu, H5N1 flu, or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Significant public
health issues, including any occurrence or recurrence (or continued spread) of an outbreak of any epidemic,
infectious disease, or virus, could cause a slowdown in the levels of economic activity generally (or cause
the global economy to enter into a recession or depression), which could adversely affect our advisory
business, financial condition, and operations. Should these or other major public health issues arise or
materially impact the day-to-day lives of persons around the globe, our firm could be adversely affected by
more stringent travel restrictions, additional limitations on operations, or business and/or governmental
actions limiting the movement of people between regions and other activities or operations.
v Reliance on Advisor. The performance of clients’ portfolio holdings depends on the skill and expertise of
our professional staff to make appropriate investment decisions. The success of client portfolios depends
on our firm’s ability to develop and implement investment strategies and apply investment techniques and
risk analyses to achieve a client’s investment objectives. Our firm’s subjective decisions may cause
portfolios to incur losses or miss profit opportunities that may otherwise have been capitalized. For
example, our portfolios may include customized investment features that may impact the implementation
of specific investment strategies. Additionally, as financial markets evolve, we may invest in other securities
when consistent with the specific portfolio strategy.
v Business Continuity Risk. In the event of a significant business disruption, unforeseeable event, or natural
disaster that causes a total or partial outage affecting our offices or a technical problem affecting
applications or networks, our advisory activities may be adversely impacted. Service providers may also fail
to perform, and any disruption in the infrastructure that supports our operations may curtail our ability to
conduct business.
To mitigate such risks, we have adopted a business continuity plan to implement recovery strategies
designed to maintain critical functions and limit the impact of any business interruption or disaster on
client activities or business transactions.
v Cybersecurity Risk. Our advisory services depend on various computer and telecommunication
technologies, many of which are provided by or are dependent on third-party service providers. Our ability
to operate successfully could be severely compromised by a system or component failure, delays in data
transmission, telecommunication failure, power loss, a software-related system crash, unauthorized system
access or use (such as “hacking”), computer viruses, worms, and similar programs, fire or water damage,
human errors in using or accessing relevant systems, or various other events or circumstances. These
events may impact trading processes for client advisory accounts. It is not possible to provide
comprehensive and foolproof protection against all such events. We cannot provide any assurance about
the ability of applicable service providers to continue providing services.
Any event that interrupts our computers, telecommunication systems, or operations could compromise our
services for an extended time period and cause client advisory accounts to experience losses, including
preventing trading, modifying, liquidating, and/or monitoring the portfolios.
In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events and are not limited to
gaining unauthorized access to digital systems, misappropriating assets or sensitive information,
corrupting data, or causing operational disruption, including denial-of-service attacks on websites.
Cybersecurity failures or breaches that affect our advisory services or service providers can cause
disruptions to our operations, potentially causing clients to experience financial losses, the inability to
access advisory accounts, and other damages.
While the foregoing information provides a synopsis of the risks that may affect investments, many other
circumstances not described herein could adversely affect the value of investments and portfolio holdings and
prevent client portfolio holdings or assets from reaching the stated objective.

CODE OF ETHICS, PARTICIPATION, OR INTEREST IN CLIENT TRANSACTIONS AND
PERSONAL TRADING (Item 11)
Code of Ethics
We require that all employees of Capital Endurance Group act ethically and professionally. Our management
persons, investment advisor representatives, and other employees (collectively, “personnel”) subscribe to a
strict code of professional standards and ethics ("Code of Ethics"). Our Code of Ethics is constructed to comply
with the investment advisory laws and regulations that require firms to act as fiduciaries in transactions with
their clients. Our inherent fiduciary duty requires that we act solely in our clients’ best interests and adhere to
standards of utmost integrity in our communications and transactions. These standards ensure that clients’
interests are given precedence.
Accordingly, we have implemented comprehensive policies, guidelines, and procedures that promote ethical
conduct and practices by all personnel. The foregoing has been compiled and is collectively referred to as our
Code of Ethics. We adopted our Code of Ethics to specify and prohibit certain types of transactions that create
conflicts of interest (or perceived conflicts of interest) and establish reporting requirements and enforcement
procedures related to personal securities transactions by our personnel.
Our Code of Ethics, which specifically emphasizes our fiduciary duty, professional standards, insider trading,
personal trading, and gifts and entertainment, establishes our ideals for ethical conduct based on the
fundamental principles of openness, integrity, honesty, and trust.
We will provide a copy of our complete Code of Ethics to any client or prospective client upon request.
Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
We do not recommend that clients buy or sell securities in which our firm, an affiliate, or a subsidiary has a
material financial or ownership interest.
Personal Trading
Proprietary Trading
At times, we buy or sell securities for our employees’ personal accounts that we recommend to clients. We
document any transactions that could be construed as a conflict of interest. Conflicts of interest relative to
trades for our employees (“personal accounts”) may present in many different contexts. Some conflicts of
interest related to personal trades include trading ahead to obtain a better transaction execution price than
clients, recommendations or trades based on financial interest, trading on information that is not available to
CEG BROCHURE

Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
the public, or structuring transactions in a manner so that the results are profitable for employees’ accounts.
To mitigate or remedy any conflicts of interest or perceived conflicts, we monitor internal trading reports for
adherence to our Code of Ethics.
Simultaneous Trading
We are likely to buy or sell investments for the personal accounts of our employees at or around the same time
as clients. As summarized above, our Code of Ethics requires us to (1) act in accordance with all applicable
federal and state regulations, (2) act in the best interest of clients, (3) preclear transactions in private
placements or initial public offerings, and (4) review personal securities transactions by employees to confirm
adherence. Our chief compliance officer performs the personal securities transaction reviews.
In any instance where similar securities are purchased or sold, we will uphold our fiduciary duty by ensuring
that transactions benefit our clients’ interests.
BROKERAGE PRACTICES (Item 12)
Selection and Recommendation
Capital Endurance Group recommends account custodians after evaluating several factors. These factors
include, but are not limited to, relatively low fees and expenses, execution capabilities, reputation, access to
securities markets, and expertise in handling brokerage support processes. We may also consider the
availability of other products and services that benefit our clients, many of which are not typically available to
retail (nonadvisory) clients.
Our firm maintains custodial services agreements with Fidelity Brokerage Services, Inc. (“Fidelity”) and Charles
Schwab & Co. (hereinafter, “Schwab”). Fidelity and Schwab are registered broker-dealers (members of FINRA
and SIPC). These firms are qualified account custodians (“account custodians”). We are participants of
Fidelity’s and Schwab’s institutional services platforms for independent investment advisors. Schwab’s
platform is known as Schwab Advisor Services™. Fidelity’s platform is known as Fidelity Wealth Institutional
Services or “FWIS”.
Capital Endurance Group is independently owned and is not affiliated with Fidelity or Schwab. We recommend
an account custodian based on the best fit for our clients, which includes an evaluation of cost implications and
a client’s previous custodial relationships. While we recommend that clients use Fidelity or Schwab as account
custodians, clients ultimately decide whether to do so and open an account by entering into an account
agreement directly with Fidelity or Schwab. We do not open the account, although we may assist clients in
doing so. As outlined in the Other Fees & Expenses section, there are other costs and expenses related to
managing the investment assets of clients’ accounts and advisory service provisions.
More Information About Schwab
Schwab does not generally charge clients separately for custody services. It is usually compensated by charging
transaction fees on trades and assessing account maintenance fees. Schwab is also compensated by the interest
it earns on the uninvested cash (i.e., Schwab money market mutual funds) in client accounts and may be
compensated by a client’s investments in other products and services offered through Schwab Advisor
Services™.
Schwab also makes other products and services available that benefit our firm but may not directly benefit
clients’ accounts. Services provided by Schwab are not otherwise contingent upon our firm committing any
specific amount of business to Schwab. The products and services assist us in managing and administering our
clients’ accounts. Such services include investment research, both Schwab’s own and that of third parties. We
may use this research to service all or a substantial number of clients’ accounts, including accounts not
maintained at Schwab. In addition to investment research, Schwab also makes available software and other
technology that:
•
Provides access to client account data (such as duplicate trade confirmations and account
statements)
Facilitates trade execution and allocates aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts
Provides pricing and other market data
Facilitates the payment of our fees from our clients’ accounts
•
•
•
• Assists with back-office functions, recordkeeping, and client reporting
CEG BROCHURE
15
Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
Additionally, Schwab offers other services to help us manage and develop our business enterprise further. These
services include:
Educational conferences and events
Consulting on technology, compliance, legal, and business needs
Publications and conferences on practice management and business succession
•
•
•
• Access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants, and insurance providers
• Marketing consulting and support
Our firm may receive some of the services listed above, and in other cases, Schwab will arrange for third-party
vendors to offer these services. Schwab may also discount or waive its fees for some of the services or pay all or
a part of a third party’s fees. Schwab may also provide us with other benefits, such as the occasional business
entertainment of our personnel.
Fidelity’s support services and benefits are similar to Schwab’s. Both platforms provide ancillary soft dollar
benefits to support our clients’ advisory accounts and certain operational processes. The ancillary soft dollar
benefits include but are not limited to duplicate client confirmations and bundled duplicate statements, access
to a trading desk serving platform participants exclusively, access to block trading, which provides the ability to
aggregate securities transactions and then allocate the appropriate shares to client accounts, mechanisms to
facilitate the deduction of advisory fees directly from client accounts, access to an electronic communication
network for order entry and account information; receipt of compliance publications, and access to other
products and services that are generally available to only institutional platform participants.
Therefore, based on our established service agreements, cost implications, operational support, custodial, and
other services, we will recommend either Fidelity or Schwab to clients for advisory transaction support services.
Notwithstanding our existing service agreements, we reserve the right to engage other or additional firms for
custodial services.
1. Soft Dollar Benefits
As of the date of this Brochure, we have not entered into any agreement with any account custodian, broker-
dealer, or any other third party to receive soft dollar credits. Soft dollar credits are earned from clients’
securities transactions as a result of an increase in transaction costs or commissions and are subsequently used
to pay for the research or other products or services provided by an account custodian. Therefore, although we
receive ancillary soft dollar benefits, our firm does not earn soft dollar credits.
More importantly, our receipt of ancillary soft dollar platform benefits does not relieve us of our duty to act in
the best interests of clients, which includes, among other things, seeking best execution of trades for client
accounts.
2. Brokerage for Client Referrals
We do not receive client referrals from broker-dealers or other third parties in exchange for using any particular
broker-dealer.
3. Directed Brokerage
(a) As previously stated, we recommend account custodians based on their ability to maximize trading
efficiencies and provide cost-effectiveness for our clients. We seek to achieve the most favorable results for
trading costs, allocating funds, and rebalancing clients’ investments.
(b) We do not permit clients to direct brokerage.
Order Aggregation
We may (but are not obligated to) block or aggregate orders for all advisory accounts, including personal
accounts, to execute transactions more timely, equitably, cost-effectively, and efficiently. When we block or
aggregate trades, buy and sell orders are averaged as to price and allocated proportionally among accounts.
This practice is reasonably likely to result in an administrative convenience for our firm and an overall economic
benefit to clients. Clients benefit relatively from averaged buy or sell execution prices, lower transaction
expenses, beneficial timing of transactions, or a combination of these and other factors.
If we decide that order aggregation is in the best interest of clients, before aggregating trades, we will prepare a
written allocation statement specifying each advisory account that will participate in the aggregated order and
the anticipated allocation among the accounts if the order is filled in its entirety. If the order is partially filled,
allocations will be made according to our judgment of each client’s best interest, and such allocation decisions
will be documented. For example, if an order is filled partially, client orders will be allocated before any personal
CEG BROCHURE
16
Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
account allocations. Each account participating in a block trade will pay or receive the average price for all
shares included in the transactions for such securities on that day, including applicable transaction costs.
Any change to an allocation must treat each client fairly and equitably and must be explained in writing and
approved by our chief compliance officer promptly (generally no later than one hour) after the opening of the
markets on the trading day following the day the order was executed.
Our firm does not receive any additional compensation or remuneration as a result of order aggregation. Our
firm’s chief compliance officer will review transactions to detect and prevent inefficiencies that result from
noncompliance with our order aggregation policies and procedures.
REVIEW OF ACCOUNTS (Item 13)
Periodic Reviews
Our criteria for reviewing client accounts are as follows:
1. Comprehensive Wealth Management Services
We review client account portfolios no less than annually and more frequently at any client’s request. Each
investment advisor representative reviews the client accounts under his purview. Our review methodology
involves ongoing monitoring and analysis to ensure that clients’ portfolios and strategies remain aligned with
the stated investment goals and objectives. If reallocation is necessary, we will buy or sell investments that align
with a client’s strategies, goals, and objectives.
2. Stand-Alone Limited Engagement Financial Plans
Clients who engage us for stand-alone limited engagement financial planning services will receive financial
plans or planning updates during meetings (e.g., in-person, telephone, or electronic/virtual communications)
throughout the engagement. During review meetings, we request that clients provide updates on previously
provided financial information or data. After engagement termination, supplemental services are available for
an additional fee. Clients who wish to engage us for comprehensive wealth management services must do so
within twelve (12) months of the stand-alone engagement for limited financial planning services.
Note About Cash Sweeps. Certain account custodians may require that cash proceeds from client account
transactions or new deposits be transferred to and/or initially held in a designated sweep account. The interest
rates on the sweep account are usually lower than those offered by other money market accounts.
In cases of yield dispersion, our firm will generally, within thirty (30) days, purchase a higher-yielding money
market fund or other security available on the account custodian’s platform, unless we intend to use the cash
proceeds to acquire additional investments for the client’s account. Exceptions and adjustments to our cash
balances policy may be made for various reasons.
It is important to note that the cash sweep policy does not apply to the cash portion of our firm’s investment
strategies, which typically remains in the designated cash sweep account at the account custodian. It also does
not apply to cash set aside for client needs or balances maintained for advisory fee billings.
Furthermore, clients are responsible for yield dispersion, cash balance decisions, and related cash transactions
for cash accounts held by the account custodian but not managed by our firm.
Intermittent Review Factors
Substantial market fluctuation, economic, business, or political events, or changes in a client’s financial status
(such as retirement, termination of employment, relocation, or inheritance) will prompt us to conduct ad hoc
reviews of holdings and accounts. Clients are encouraged to notify us promptly if any material changes affect
the financial information on which we rely to provide advice and recommendations.
Client Reports
We issue separate written reports to clients regarding account performance at least quarterly. In addition to
performance data, the reports may include statements of gains and losses and a financial markets summary.
Due to differences in accounting procedures, reporting dates, or valuation and pricing methodologies for certain
securities, the asset values on the firm's performance statements will differ from those on the account
custodian’s statements. Please review our performance statements carefully, comparing the asset values in our
reports to those in the account custodian’s statements.
In addition to our performance reports, clients receive transaction confirmations from the account custodian
shortly after trading activity (buys or sells). The account custodian also sends monthly statements for each
CEG BROCHURE
17
Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
month that trading activity occurs. If there is no trading activity during any month, clients will receive quarterly
account statements detailing account activity.
CLIENT REFERRALS AND OTHER COMPENSATION (Item 14)
Economic Benefits for Advisory Services
Except for the disclosures outlined in the Brokerage Practices section above, we do not have any arrangements
to receive economic benefits from a third party for providing advisory services to our clients.
Compensation for Client Referrals
Through our client referral program, we have entered into referral arrangements with some current clients of
the firm who are compensated for referring prospective clients to us. Clients referred by other clients should be
aware that some clients may be incentivized to make referrals because they receive compensation in the form
of advisory fee discounts.
We require that our client referral program and similar referral arrangements comply with applicable regulatory
requirements of Georgia Rule 590-4-4-.19 and SEC Rule 206(4)-1, including, but not limited to, disclosures
made by current clients to prospective clients at the time of the referral. Such disclosures provide details
regarding referral arrangements, conflicts of interest, and the compensation we pay (and the current client
receives) in connection with such referrals. In accordance with Georgia Rule 590-4-4-.19 and SEC Rule 206(4)-
1, we have procedures in place to confirm that current clients deliver disclosures to prospective clients.
CUSTODY (Item 15)
Custodian of Assets
Our firm does not hold physical custody of client funds or securities. We require that qualified account
custodians hold client assets. For more information about the account custodians (broker-dealers) that provide
clearing, custody, and safekeeping for our client accounts, please review the Brokerage Practices section.
Our firm has indirect custody of client funds and securities because of our authorization to deduct advisory fees
directly from clients’ accounts. Nonetheless, we have implemented safeguard requirements to ensure the
safekeeping of clients’ funds and securities by a qualified account custodian.
We also have indirect custody of client funds and securities through the use of asset movement authorizations
to process account disbursements at a client’s request. To ensure the safekeeping of assets subject to movement
authorizations, we have implemented the requisite account custodian internal control procedures for
safeguarding client assets.
We also manage clients’ 401(k) plan assets held at the plan. Although we use a third-party platform to access
401(k) plan assets, our trading authority creates custody circumstances for our firm. As a safeguard, we have
employed an independent accountant to conduct annual surprise audits of these client assets and file the
requisite reports detailing the results of such audits.
Account Statements
Client account statements are mailed or sent electronically by the account custodian. Clients are advised to
carefully review account statements, comparing asset values, holdings, allocations, performance, and advisory
fees on current statements to the information in previously received trade confirmations and account
statements.
INVESTMENT DISCRETION (Item 16)
Discretionary Authority
It is customary for our firm to exercise discretionary trading authority to manage and direct clients’ investment
assets (i.e., accounts, funds, and securities). This authority is granted upon a client’s execution of our
investment management agreement.
Discretionary authority is to make and implement investment decisions regarding a client’s investment assets
(i.e., accounts, funds, or securities) without prior consultation with a client. Such investment decisions include
determining the types and dollar amounts or percentages of securities to buy or sell and reinvesting investment
assets. All investment decisions implemented under discretionary trading authority are made in accordance
with a client’s stated investment objectives. At any time during our advisory engagement, clients may advise us
of any limitations on our discretionary authority in writing.
CEG BROCHURE
18
Capital Endurance Group, Inc.
While we allow clients to advise us of the desire to impose restrictions on investing in securities in specific
industries or countries, or on dollar amounts, or percentages of investments in the foregoing, such restrictions
will generally not apply to the management of the underlying securities in mutual funds and exchange-traded
funds, if applicable. Therefore, clients may be limited in imposing limitations, as some restrictions may affect
the outcome of our investment management strategy. We will address each request on a case-by-case basis.
VOTING CLIENT SECURITIES (Item 17)
Our firm does not cast proxy votes on behalf of clients. We may provide information to clarify the issues in
proxy solicitation materials; however, our clients are responsible for casting proxy votes. Clients are also
responsible for directing shareholder action items related to mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, bankruptcy
proceedings, and other events involving the securities held in accounts managed by us.
Clients receive proxy solicitation and information regarding shareholder action items by mail or electronically
from the account custodian or issuer’s transfer agent. Clients must follow the instructions for voting or directing
the shareholder action outlined in the mailing or electronic delivery.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Item 18)
Balance Sheet Requirement
Our firm does not require or solicit prepayment of more than $500 in advisory fees per client, six (6) months
or more in advance.
Discretionary Authority, Custody of Client Funds or Securities, and Financial Condition
We use discretionary trading authority to supervise, direct, and manage clients’ investments. Additionally, we
have indirect custody of client funds and securities through our authorization to deduct advisory fees directly
from clients’ accounts. We also have indirect custody when we process clients’ requests to disburse assets from
their portfolios. We are deemed to have custody of the client's 401(k) plan assets held at the plan due to our
trading authority, which provides access to client funds and securities.
Moreover, we do not have any financial condition that would impair our ability to meet contractual
commitments to clients.

ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES
Important Information regarding Retirement Accounts
ERISA Fiduciary Advisor
As a result of providing fiduciary investment advice to plan sponsors, plan participants, and IRA owners, we are
a Fiduciary Advisor under Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA),
and as applicable, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Please review the Types of
Advisory Services section above for details regarding our advisory services. We will provide additional
disclosures at the time we provide advice or make recommendations regarding any retirement savings account.
Retirement Account Rollover Options
Clients have options regarding retirement account rollovers. New or existing clients leaving an employer
typically have four (4) options regarding assets in an existing retirement plan. They may:
1.
roll over the assets to the new employer’s plan, if available, and if rollovers are permitted;
2.
leave the assets in the former employer’s plan, if permitted;
3.
roll over the assets to an individual retirement account (“IRA”) or
4.
cash out the account value (tax consequences generally apply).
If our firm recommends that a client roll over retirement assets into an account that we will manage, such a
recommendation creates a conflict of interest because we will earn fees as a result of the rollover. As a Fiduciary
Advisor, our firm mitigates this conflict by disclosing it and ensuring that any recommendation to roll over
retirement savings is in the client’s best interest.
No client is under any obligation to roll over retirement savings to an account managed by us.
Clients with questions regarding the conflicts of interest listed above are urged to request additional details
from their investment advisor representative or contact us. Our primary contact number is listed on the cover
page of this Brochure.
CFP Board Disclosures
Our firm employs CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM professionals, Patrick M. Dailey, CFP®, and Paul M.
Delaney, CFA®, CFP®. The Brochure supplements for Messrs. Dailey and Delaney outline specific details
regarding the conferment of the CFP® professional designation. Accordingly, we also adhere to the CFP Board’s
Standards of Professional Conduct.
We encourage clients to review the information outlined in this Brochure, our disclosure document. We
welcome any questions clients may have regarding our advisory services (see Item 4, Advisory Services),
compensation (see Item 5, Fees and Compensation Section), and affiliations (see Item 10, Other Financial
Industry Activities and Affiliations Section).
Should any material changes occur to the information outlined in this Brochure, updates will be provided to
clients within a reasonable timeframe, generally within thirty (30) days, as required by advisory regulations.
We acknowledge our responsibility to adhere to the standards established by the CFP Board’s Standards of
Professional Conduct, including the duty of care of a fiduciary, as defined by the CFP Board.
