Kult Wealth Management Group, LLC
Item 4: Advisory Business
Firm Description:
Kult Wealth Management Group, LLC, (“Kult Wealth”) was founded in 2003.
Kult Wealth provides personalized wealth management to individuals. Our
primary services include investment management and, for clients drawing
from their investment portfolios (e.g., retired clients), income tax and cash
flow planning. We also perform tax return preparation in limited situations for
certain investment advisory clients.
Other professionals (e.g., lawyers, accountants, insurance agents, etc.) are
engaged directly by the client and we can coordinate our services with them
as needed.
The initial consultation with us is complimentary and is considered an
exploratory interview to determine the extent to which our services would be
appropriate for the individual(s).
As of December 31, 2025, Kult Wealth manages $135,083,000 in assets for
69 clients. $132,742,000 is managed on a discretionary basis, and
$2,341,000 is managed on a non-discretionary basis.
Owner of Firm:
Kult Wealth is 100%-owned by Peter M. Kult. Prior to launching Kult Wealth
in 2003, Mr. Kult was part-owner of McCarthy Kult Financial Group. Prior to
that, he worked in Arthur Andersen’s Investment Advisory Services group.
Mr. Kult began his career as an auditor with Price Waterhouse after earning a
Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Marquette University. Mr.
Kult is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and Certified Financial Planner
(CFP®).

Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Kult Wealth is a fee-only investment management firm, which means we are
compensated directly by our clients. We are not affiliated with entities that
sell financial products or securities, and we do not accept commissions in any
form. We do not accept finder’s fees or referral fees.
Kult Wealth’s annual investment management fee is based on a percentage
of assets managed according to the following schedule:
.73% on the first $5,000,000;
.50% on the next $5,000,000; and
.25% on the assets above $10,000,000.
Investment management fees are billed quarterly, in arrears, meaning that
our fees are deducted after the three-month billing period has ended. The
client must consent in advance to direct debiting of their investment account.
Fees are non-negotiable. Although the investment management agreement
is an ongoing agreement, the client or the investment manager may terminate
the agreement at any time. At termination, fees will be billed on a pro rata
basis for the portion of the quarter completed.
In addition to Kult Wealth’s fees, clients incur the following fees: 1) All
exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and mutual funds charge their own fees; 2)
Kult Wealth’s custodian charges transaction fees for buying and selling
certain investments; 3) Certain investments (and custodian) charge
redemption fees if redeemed within a specified time in order to discourage
market timing. Kult Wealth receives no compensation from these fees.
Please note that clients who entered into agreements prior to December 31,
2022 have a lower fee schedule.
Item 6: Performance-based Fees
None. Kult Wealth does not charge or accept performance-based fees.
Item 7: Types of Clients
Kult Wealth provides investment advice to individuals. The minimum account
size is $1,000,000 of assets under management, which equates to an annual
fee of $7,300. Kult Wealth has the discretion to waive the account minimum.
Accounts of less than $1,000,000 may be set up when the client and the
advisor anticipate the client will add additional funds to the accounts bringing
the total to $1,000,000 within a reasonable time. Other exceptions may apply
to employees of Kult Wealth and their relatives, or relatives of existing clients.

Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis
The main sources of information include financial newspapers and
magazines, research materials prepared by others, annual reports,
prospectuses, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
company press releases.
Investment Strategies
The primary investment strategy used for managing client accounts is
strategic asset allocation tailored according to the client’s goals, timeline, tax
situation, and risk tolerance (among other factors). We typically implement
our client’s asset allocation plans via both passively-managed index
strategies as well as actively-managed strategies. Portfolios are generally
globally diversified in an effort to lower risk relative to undiversified portfolios.
Kult Wealth generally utilizes ETFs for the passively-managed index portion
of clients’ portfolios and we utilize mutual funds for the actively-managed
portion of clients’ portfolios. (Individual stocks and bonds may be held,
purchased, or sold for clients when appropriate, but this is not typical.)
Following implementation of a client’s asset allocation plan, Kult Wealth
believes it is important from a risk and return standpoint to periodically
“rebalance” each client’s portfolio back to the strategic asset allocation plan.
(Note: Tax implications are considered before rebalancing.)
Risk of Loss
All investment programs have certain risks that are borne by the investor.
Our investment approach constantly keeps the risk of loss in mind. Investors
face the following investment risks:
•
Interest-rate Risk: Fluctuations in interest rates may cause investment
prices to fluctuate. For example, when interest rates rise, yields on
existing bonds become less attractive, causing their market values to
decline.
• Market Risk: The price of a security, bond, or mutual fund may drop in
reaction to tangible and intangible events and conditions. This type of
risk may be caused by external factors independent of a security’s
particular underlying circumstances. For example, political, economic
and social conditions may trigger market events.
•
Inflation Risk: When any type of inflation is present, a dollar today will
not buy as much as a dollar next year, because purchasing power is
eroding at the rate of inflation.

• Currency Risk: Overseas investments are subject to fluctuations in the
value of the US dollar against the currency of the investment’s
originating country. This is also referred to as exchange rate risk.
• Reinvestment Risk: This is the risk that future proceeds from
investments may have to be reinvested at a potentially lower rate of
return (i.e. interest rate). This primarily relates to fixed income
securities.
• Business Risk: These risks are associated with a particular industry or
a particular company within an industry. For example, oil-drilling
companies depend on finding oil and then refining it, a lengthy
process, before they can generate a profit.
• Liquidity Risk: Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment
into cash. Generally, assets are more liquid if many traders are
interested in a standardized product. For example, Treasury Bills are
highly liquid, while real estate properties are not.
• Financial Risk: Excessive borrowing to finance a business’ operations
increases the risk of profitability, because the company must meet the
terms of its obligations in good times and bad. During periods of
financial stress, the inability to meet loan obligations may result in
bankruptcy and/or a declining market value.
Item 9: Disciplinary Information
None—no history of disciplinary action.
Item 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
None. Kult Wealth has no relationships or arrangements with other related
financial industry participants. No conflicts of interest exist that might arise
from such relationships or arrangements.
Kult Wealth performs tax return preparation in limited situations for certain
investment advisory clients.

Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and
Personal Trading
Code of Ethics
The employees of Kult Wealth have committed to a Code of Ethics that is
available for review by clients and prospective clients upon request. The firm
will provide a copy of the Code of Ethics to any client or prospective client
upon request.
Participation or Interest in Client Transactions
Kult Wealth and its employees may buy or sell securities that are also held by
clients. Employees may not trade their own securities ahead of client trades.
Employees comply with the provisions of the Kult Wealth Compliance Manual.
Personal Trading
The Chief Compliance Officer of Kult Wealth is Peter Kult. He reviews all
employee trades each quarter. The personal trading reviews ensure that the
personal trading of employees does not affect the markets, and that clients of
the firm receive preferential treatment.
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
Selecting Brokerage Firms
Kult Wealth has selected Charles Schwab as the custodian for our clients’
accounts. In selecting the custodian, we considered the costs of custody (no
charge), costs of reporting (no charge), transaction costs, technology
capabilities, breadth and cost structure of its ETF and mutual fund platforms,
and its reputation in the industry. By directing brokerage to Charles Schwab,
we may be unable to achieve the most favorable execution of client
transactions and this practice may cost clients more money. We believe the
custodian’s competitive costs and good service justify our selection of the firm
as custodian and broker of choice for our clients.
Soft Dollars
Kult Wealth does not receive any indirect payments from any service
providers such as Charles Schwab.
Order Aggregation
While many of our clients hold the same funds and ETFs, each client’s
portfolio is generally customized and, therefore, we do not necessarily trade
the same securities on the same day for different clients. In addition, many of
the ETFs we utilize do not incur brokerage fees. Primarily due to these
reasons, we generally do not aggregate trades.

Item 13: Review of Accounts
Periodic Reviews
Peter Kult reviews client accounts at least quarterly, but more frequently when
market conditions dictate (i.e., when investment markets fluctuate
significantly).
Review Triggers
Other conditions that may trigger a review are changes in the tax laws, new
investment information, and changes in a client's own situation.
Regular Reports
Clients generally receive periodic communications on at least a quarterly
basis. The written updates may include a portfolio statement and a summary
of progress towards meeting the client’s long-term objectives.
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Incoming Referrals
Kult Wealth receives referrals from current clients, estate planning attorneys,
accountants, personal friends and other similar sources. The firm does not
compensate referring parties for these referrals.
Referrals Out
Kult Wealth does not accept referral fees or any form of remuneration from
other professionals when a prospect or client is referred to them.
Item 15: Custody
Account Statements
All assets are held at “qualified custodian” Charles Schwab, which means the
custodian provides account statements directly to clients at least quarterly.
Performance Reports
Clients are urged to compare the account statements received directly from
the custodian to the statements provided by Kult Wealth.

Item 16: Investment Discretion
Discretionary Authority for Trading
Kult Wealth accepts discretionary authority to manage accounts on behalf of
clients. Kult Wealth has the authority to determine, without obtaining specific
client consent, the securities to be bought or sold, and the amount of the
securities to be bought or sold.
Discretionary trading authority facilitates placing trades in your accounts on
your behalf so that we may promptly implement the asset allocation policy
that you have approved.
Limited Power of Attorney
A limited power of attorney is a trading authorization for this purpose. You
sign a limited power of attorney so that we may execute the trades on your
behalf.
Item 17: Voting Client Securities
Proxy Votes
Kult Wealth does not vote proxies on securities. Clients are expected to vote
their own proxies.
Item 18: Financial Information
Financial Condition
Kult Wealth utilizes Charles Schwab as the qualified custodian of our clients’
assets. Furthermore, we do not require prepayment of advisory fees.
Therefore, we are not required to disclose balance sheet information. Kult
Wealth has no debt and remains in sound financial condition and we know of
no conditions that would impair our ability to meet our contractual
commitments.
