Item 4: Advisory Business
Fenway Financial Advisors was founded by Stephen M. Wintermeier in March 2006.
Fenway Financial Advisors, LLC was incorporated on September 16, 2011. Stephen M.
Wintermeier, the firm’s Managing Principal, has 20 years of experience in the business of
providing investment advice to clients.
Fenway Financial Advisors, LLC provides personalized financial planning and/or
investment management services. Clients advised may include individuals, trusts, estates,
foundations, corporations and retirement plans, estates, and charitable organizations.
Financial Planning
Fenway Financial Advisors advises clients regarding cash flow, college planning,
insurance, retirement planning, tax considerations, estate planning, and potentially other
areas that the client requests us to review, providing that we deem ourselves qualified to
do the work.
In most cases, the client will supply Fenway Financial Advisors information including
income, investments, savings, insurance, age, and many other items that are helpful to
the firm in assessing the financial goals of clients. The information is typically provided
during personal interviews and supplemented with written information. Once the
information is received, we will discuss the client’s financial needs and goals with them
and compare their current financial situation with their stated goals. Once these are
compared, we will create a financial and/or investment plan to help clients meet their
expressed goals.
The plan is intended to be a suggested blueprint of how to meet goals. Not every plan
will be the same for every client. Each one is specific to the client who requested it.
Because the plan is based on information supplied by the client, it is very important that
clients accurately and completely communicate to us the information we need. Also,
circumstances and needs may change as an engagement with us progresses. It is very
important to continually update us with any changes so that if the updates require changes
to a plan, we can make those changes. Otherwise, plans may no longer be accurate.
Once a financial plan is completed, it is the client’s decision how to implement it. If the
client decides to implement their financial plan through Fenway Financial Advisors, they
will become an investment management client.
Investment Management
As of December 31, 2024, Fenway Financial advisors had $236,533,282 in non-
discretionary assets under management and no discretionary assets under
management.
Fenway Financial Advisors does not require an account minimum to initiate services, but
4
a recommended minimum portfolio size is $1 million. Fenway Financial Advisors offers its
investment management services on a “non-discretionary” basis. This means we monitor
client accounts to ensure that they are meeting asset allocation requirements. Changes
to clients’ accounts will not be made until we have received verbal confirmation from the
client that our proposed change is acceptable. Electronic communications (e.g. –
voicemail, text, email) cannot be accepted to confirm orders, move money or implement
any changes.
Educational Seminars and Workshops
Fenway Financial Advisors may conduct educational seminars and workshops related to
various aspects of personal financial management. Fees are negotiable and will depend
upon the information requested, location, and complexity of the program.
Item 5: Fees and Compensation
A. Fees Charged
All investment management clients will be required to execute an Investment Management
Agreement that will describe the type of management services to be provided and the
fees, among other items. All financial planning clients will be required to execute a
Financial Planning Agreement that will describe the type of planning services to be
provided and the fees, among other items.
Financial Planning Fees
Financial planning fees can be either hourly or on a fixed fee basis. Our hourly charge is
$400-$600 per hour. The fee range stated is a guide. Fees may be higher or lower than
this range, based on the nature of the engagement. Fees are negotiable and will depend
on the anticipated complexity of the plan.
Investment Management Fees
Fees for investment management may be fixed-fee, hourly or per diem.
● Fixed fees are per rebalancing and range from $600 to $3000.
● Hourly rates for investment management vary from $400 to $600, depending
upon the nature of the engagement.
● Per diem rates vary depending upon the engagement.
The fee ranges stated are a guide. Fees are negotiable, and may be higher or lower than
this range, based on the nature of the portfolio. Factors affecting fees include the size and
complexity of the portfolio, complexity of asset structures, and other factors.
B. Fee Payment
Fees for financial planning will be billed to each client following the month in which the
services were delivered. Payment is expected within 30 days of invoicing. If the client
terminates the Financial Planning Agreement prior to completion of the plan, any unearned
fees will be returned to the client.
Investment advisory fees will be billed via invoice. These fees may be deducted directly
from each client’s account (with prior written consent) or submitted to FFA via check
payable within 30 days of an invoice.
5
C. Other Fees
There are a number of other fees that can be associated with holding and investing in
securities. The client will be responsible for fees including money movement fees,
custodial fees, transaction fees for the purchase or sale of a mutual fund or Exchange
Traded Fund, or commissions for the purchase or sale of a stock. Expenses of a fund will
not be included in management fees, as they are deducted from the value of the shares
by the mutual fund manager. For complete discussion of expenses related to each mutual
fund, clients should read a copy of the prospectus issued by that fund. Fenway Financial
Advisors can provide or direct clients to a copy of the prospectus for any fund that we
recommend.
Fenway Financial Advisors does not receive any of these transaction fees or commissions.
Please make sure to read Item 12 of this informational brochure, where we discuss broker-
dealer and custodial issues.
D. Pro-rated Fees
Financial Planning: Clients are free to terminate financial planning services. If a client
terminates the Financial Planning Agreement, any unearned fees will be returned to the
client.
Investment Management: Not applicable, because clients are invoiced for services
rendered after services are provided. However, in the event that a client does pay a portion
of a fee in advance, and the client terminates the agreement prior to the completion of the
services, any unearned fee will be returned to the client.
E. Compensation for the Sale of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 6: Performance-Based Fees.
Fenway Financial Advisors does not charge performance-based fees.
Item 7: Types of Clients.
Clients advised may include individuals, trusts, estates, foundations, corporations and
retirement plans, estates, and charitable organizations.
Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
It is important for clients to know and remember that all investments carry risks.
Investing in securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear.
Each client’s portfolio will be invested according to that client’s investment objectives.
6
We determine these objectives by interviewing the client and/or asking the client to put
these objectives in writing. Once we ascertain the client’s objectives, we will develop a
set of asset allocation guidelines. An asset allocation strategy is a percentage-based
allocation to different investment types. For example, a client may have an asset allocation
strategy that calls for 40-60% of the portfolio to be invested in equity securities, with 20%
of that allocated to international equities and the remaining balance in fixed income.
Another client may have an asset allocation of 50-60% in fixed-income securities and the
remainder equities. The percentages in each type that we recommend are based on the
typical behavior of that security type, individual securities we follow, current market
conditions, the client’s current financial situation, their financial goals, and the timeline to
get them to those goals. Because we develop an investment strategy based on the client’s
personal situation and financial goals, asset allocation guidelines may be similar to or
different from another client’s goals. Once we agree on allocation guidelines, risk
tolerance, time horizon, and how to achieve these results, we will develop a written target
asset allocation to guide all parties involved in the execution of these goals, including but
not limited to, Fenway Financial Advisors, the client, the custodian, and the investment
managers.
Upon execution of the target asset allocation strategy, we will periodically recommend
securities transactions in portfolios to meet the guidelines of the asset allocation strategy.
It is important to remember that because market conditions can vary greatly, asset
allocation guidelines are not necessarily strict rules. Rather, we review accounts
individually, and may deviate from the guidelines as we believe necessary.
The specific securities we recommended for accounts will depend on market conditions
and our research at the time. Generally, we recommend a mix of mutual funds, index
funds, and exchange-traded funds and notes. For some clients, stocks, bonds, and
options may be appropriate. A specific fund is chosen based on where its investment
objective fits into the asset allocation recommended by Fenway Financial Advisors, its risk
parameters, liquidity, longevity, past performance, peer rankings, fees, expenses, and any
other aspects of the fund Fenway Financial Advisors deems relevant to that particular
fund. We base our conclusions on predominantly publicly available research, such as
regulatory filings, press releases, competitor analyses, and in some cases research we
receive from our custodians or other market analyses. We will also utilize technical
analyses, which means that we will review the past behaviors of the security and the
markets in which it trades.
There are always risks to investing. Clients should be aware that all investments carry
various types of risk including the potential loss of principal that clients should be prepared
to bear. It is impossible to name all possible types of risks. Among the risks are the
following:
● Political Risks. Most investments have a global component, even domestic stocks.
Political events anywhere in the world may have unforeseen consequences to markets
around the world.
● General Market Risks. Markets can, as a whole, go up or down on various news
releases or for no understandable reason at all. This sometimes means that the price
of specific securities could go up or down without real reason and may take some time
to recover any lost value. Adding additional securities does not help to minimize this
risk since all securities may be affected by market fluctuations.
7
● Currency Risk. When investing in another country using another currency, the
changes in the value of the currency can change the value of the security value in a
portfolio.
● Regulatory Risk. Changes in laws and regulations from any government can change
the value of a given company and its accompanying securities. Certain industries are
more susceptible to government regulation. Changes in zoning, tax structure, or laws
may impact the return on these investments.
● Tax Risks Related to Short-Term Trading: Clients should note that Fenway
Financial Advisors may engage in short-term trading transactions. These transactions
may result in short-term gains or losses for federal and state tax purposes, which may
be taxed at a higher rate than long-term strategies. Fenway Financial Advisors
endeavors to invest client assets in a tax-efficient manner, but all clients are advised
to consult with their tax professionals regarding the transactions in client accounts.
● Risks Related to Investment Term. Securities do not follow a straight line up in value.
All securities will have periods of time when the current price of the security is not an
accurate measure of its value. If required to liquidate a client’s portfolio during one of
these periods, they will not realize as much value as they would have had the
investment had the opportunity to regain its value.
● Purchasing Power Risk. This is the risk that an investment rate of return may not
Inflation should always be considered when
keep up with the rate of inflation.
evaluating investment options.
● Business Risk. This can be thought of as certainty or uncertainty of income.
Management comes under business risk. Cyclical companies, for example, have more
business risk because of the less steady income stream. Non-cyclical companies tend
to have steadier income streams and therefore, less business risk.
● Financial Risk. The amount of debt or leverage determines the financial risk of a
company.
● Default Risk. This risk pertains to the ability of a company to service their debt.
Ratings provided by several rating services help to identify those companies with more
risk. Obligations of the U.S. government are said to be free of default risk.
● Risks specific to sub-advisors and other managers. If we invest assets with
another advisor, including a private placement, there are additional risks. These
include risks that the other manager is not as qualified as we believe them to be, that
the investments they use are not as liquid as we would normally use in a portfolio, or
that their risk management guidelines are more liberal than we would normally employ.
● Short Sales. “Short sales” are a way to implement a trade in a security Fenway
Financial Advisors feels is overvalued. In a “long” trade, the investor buys a security
or other investment hoping the security increases in price. Thus in a long trade, the
amount of the investor’s potential loss (without margin) is the amount paid for the
security. In a short sale, the investor is hoping the security decreases in price.
However, unlike a long trade where the price of the security can only go from the
purchase price to zero, in a short sale, the price of the security can go infinitely
upwards. Thus, in a short sale, the potential for loss is unlimited and unknown, where
the potential for loss in a long trade is limited and knowable. Fenway Financial
Advisors utilizes short sales only when the client’s risk tolerance permits.
Item 9: Disciplinary Information
8
On February 16, 2022, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Office of the Secretary of
the Commonwealth Securities Division entered into a consent order with Fenway
Financial Advisors. The order concluded that Fenway Financial Advisors provided
investment advisory services to clients in Massachusetts without ensuring that the firm’s
investment advisers were registered in Massachusetts. The regulatory action began
when Fenway proactively contacted the Division due to the inadvertent termination of the
firm’s Investment Adviser Representative registrations.
Item 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Fenway Financial Advisors does not have any relationships, nor do any of its related
persons, with other financial industry entities.
Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions & Personal
Trading
A. A copy of our Code of Ethics is available upon request. Our Code of Ethics includes
discussions of our fiduciary duty to clients, political contributions, gifts, entertainment,
and trading guidelines.
B. Fenway Financial Advisors does not recommend to clients that they invest in any
security in which Fenway Financial Advisors or any principal thereof has any financial
interest.
C. On occasion, an employee of Fenway Financial Advisors may purchase for his or her
own account securities which are also recommended for clients. Our Code of Ethics
details rules for employees regarding personal trading and avoiding conflicts of interest
related to trading in one’s own account. To avoid placing a trade before a client (in the
case of a purchase) or after a client (in the case of a sale), all employee trades must
be pre-cleared through the Compliance Officer. All employee trades must either take
place in the same block as a client trade or sufficiently apart in time from the client
trade so the employee receives no added benefit. Employee statements are reviewed
quarterly to confirm compliance with the trading procedures.
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
A.
Recommendation of Broker-Dealer
Fenway Financial Advisors currently recommends that investment accounts be held in
custody by Fidelity Investments or the Schwab Institutional division of Charles Schwab
and Co. (hereafter Custodians). Custodians are members of FINRA and SIPC.
Custodians offer independent investment advisors services which include custody of
securities, trade execution, clearance and settlement of transactions. Fenway
Financial Advisors receives some benefits from Custodians through its participation in
the programs. Custodians are third parties, wholly independent of Fenway Financial
Advisors, LLC. It is expected that most, if not all, transactions in a
9
given client account will be cleared through the custodian of that account in its capacity
as a broker-dealer.
Custodians, like all broker-dealers, may charge brokerage commissions or transaction
fees for trades in client accounts. Commissions are per-share or per trade charges for
the execution of either a purchase or sale of securities (stocks or bonds). Transaction
fees are charged for the execution of a purchase or sale of mutual funds. Fenway
Financial Advisors does not and will not receive any portion of these transaction
charges from Custodians. In addition to fees paid to Custodians, and the transaction
fees/commissions charged by the custodian acting as a broker-dealer, some of the
mutual funds will also charge transaction fees.
Fenway Financial Advisors, LLC recommends certain broker-dealers to its clients
based on a variety of factors. These include, but are not limited to, commission costs.
In choosing a broker-dealer or custodian to recommend, Fenway Financial Advisors
is most concerned with the value the client receives for the cost paid, not just the cost.
Other factors that may be considered in determining overall value include speed and
accuracy of execution, financial strength, knowledge and experience of staff, research,
technology and service. Specifically, Custodians have what can be considered
discount commission rates, as well as arrangements with many mutual funds that
enable Fenway Financial Advisors to purchase these mutual funds for client accounts
at reduced transaction charges (as opposed to other broker-dealers). Fenway
Financial Advisors re-evaluates the use of Custodians and other broker-dealers at
least annually to determine if these custodians are still the best value for Fenway
Financial Advisors clients.
While we recommend Fidelity and Schwab to our clients for custody and brokerage,
we do not require that clients use them. Clients may direct us to use another
custodian or broker. In this case, additional fees may apply. Clients should be aware
that we cannot ensure best execution in accounts that are held by another broker-
dealer. We reserve the right to decline acceptance of any client account for which the
client directs the use of a broker if we believe that this choice would hinder its
fiduciary duty to the client and/or its ability to service the account.
Custodians also make available to us other products, services, and benefits intended
to help us manage and further develop our business; these may not specifically
benefit our clients or their accounts. These services may include consulting,
publications, conferences, information technology, business succession planning,
regulatory compliance, and marketing. They may discount or waive fees it would
otherwise charge for some of these services or may make available, arrange and/or
pay all or part of the fees of a third-party providing these types of services to Fenway
Financial Advisors, LLC.
B. Aggregating Trades
Commission costs per client may be lower on a particular trade if all clients in whose
accounts the trade is to be made are executed at the same time. This is called
aggregating trades. Instead of placing a number of trades for the same security for
each account, we may, when appropriate, execute one trade for all accounts and then
allocate the trades to each account after execution. If an aggregate trade is not fully
executed, the securities will be allocated to client accounts on a pro rata basis,
10
except where doing so would create an unintended adverse consequence (For
example, ¼ of a share, or a position in the account of less than 1%.)
Item 13: Review of Accounts
All accounts will be reviewed by one of our principals on at least an annual basis. However,
we generally recommend the following frequency for making these portfolio adjustments
based on the size of the portfolio:
Under $1 million
$1 million - $5 million
Over $5 million
Once per year
Twice per year
As agreed upon with client
It is expected that market conditions, changes in a particular client’s account, or changes
to a client’s circumstances will trigger a review of accounts.
All clients will receive reports from Fenway Financial Advisors during regular rebalancing
meetings. We encourage clients to compare the information on their reports prepared by
Fenway Financial Advisors against the information in the statements provided directly from
Fidelity Investments or Charles Schwab and alert us of any discrepancies.
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Fenway Financial Advisors may enter into solicitation agreements pursuant to which it
compensates third-party intermediaries for client referrals that result in the provision of
investment advisory services by Fenway Financial Advisors. Fenway Financial Advisors
will disclose these solicitation arrangements to affected investors, and any cash
solicitation agreements will comply with Rule 206(4)-3 under the Advisers Act. Solicitors
introducing clients to Fenway Financial Advisors may receive compensation from
Fenway Financial Advisors, such as a retainer or a flat fee per referral. Such
compensation will be paid pursuant to a written agreement with the solicitor and
generally may be terminated by either party from time to time. The cost of any such fees
will be borne entirely by Fenway Financial Advisors and not by any affected client.
Item 15: Custody
Fenway Financial Advisors does not have custody of client funds.
Item 16: Investment Discretion
Fenway Financial Advisors does not provide investment advice on a discretionary basis.
Item 17: Voting Client Securities
From time to time, shareholders of stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds or other
securities may be permitted to vote on various types of corporate actions. Examples of
these actions include mergers, tender offers, or board elections. Clients are required to
vote proxies related to their investments, or to choose not to vote their proxies. Fenway
Financial Advisors will not accept authority to vote client securities. Clients will receive
their proxies directly from the custodian for the client account.
11
Item 18: Financial Information
Fenway Financial Advisors does not require the prepayment of fees more than six (6)
months or more in advance and therefore has not provided a balance sheet with this
brochure. There are no material financial circumstances or conditions that would
reasonably be expected to impair our ability to meet our contractual obligations to our
clients.
