Item 4 – Advisory Services
A. Firm Information
Northbridge Financial Group, LLC (“Northbridge” or the “Advisor”) is a registered investment advisor with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Advisor is organized as a Limited Liability Company (“LLC”)
under the laws of the State of Florida. Northbridge was founded in October 2014 and became a registered
investment advisor in September 2020. Northbridge is owned and operated by Michael A. Orecchio (Co-Founder
and Chief Compliance Officer). This Disclosure Brochure provides information regarding the qualifications,
business practices, and the advisory services provided by Northbridge.
B. Advisory Services Offered
Northbridge offers investment advisory services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates,
businesses, and retirement plans (each referred to as a “Client”).
The Advisor serves as a fiduciary to Clients, as defined under the applicable laws and regulations. As a fiduciary,
the Advisor upholds a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each Client and seeks to mitigate potential
conflicts of interest. Northbridge's fiduciary commitment is further described in the Advisor’s Code of Ethics. For
more information regarding the Code of Ethics, please see Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in
Client Transactions and Personal Trading.
Wealth Management Services
Northbridge provides tailored investment advisory solutions to its Clients. This is achieved through personal
Client contact and interaction while providing discretionary and non-discretionary investment management over
Client portfolios and a broad range of comprehensive financial planning. These services are described below.
Investment Management Services - Northbridge provides customized investment advisory solutions for its
Clients. This is achieved through continuous personal Client contact and interaction while providing discretionary
and non-discretionary investment management and related advisory services. Northbridge works closely with
each Client to identify their investment goals and objectives as well as risk tolerance and financial situation in
order to create a portfolio strategy. Northbridge will then construct an investment portfolio, consisting of
exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), diversified mutual funds, individual stocks, and/or individual bonds to achieve
the Client’s investment goals. The Advisor may also utilize options, derivatives, real estate investment trusts
(“REITs”), and alternative investments as appropriate, to meet the needs of the Client. The Advisor may retain
other types of investments from the Client’s legacy portfolio due to fit with the overall portfolio strategy, tax-
related reasons, or other reasons as identified between the Advisor and the Client.
Northbridge’s investment strategies are primarily long-term focused, but the Advisor may buy, sell or re-allocate
positions that have been held for less than one year to meet the objectives of the Client or due to market
conditions. Northbridge will construct, implement and monitor the portfolio to ensure it meets the goals,
objectives, circumstances, and risk tolerance agreed to by the Client. Each Client will have the opportunity to
place reasonable restrictions on the types of investments to be held in their respective portfolio, subject to
acceptance by the Advisor.
Northbridge evaluates and selects investments for inclusion in Client portfolios only after applying its internal due
diligence process. Northbridge may recommend, on occasion, redistributing investment allocations to diversify
the portfolio. Northbridge may recommend specific positions to increase sector or asset class weightings. The
Advisor may recommend employing cash positions as a possible hedge against market movement. Northbridge
may recommend selling positions for reasons that include, but are not limited to, harvesting capital gains or
losses, business or sector risk exposure to a specific security or class of securities, overvaluation or
overweighting of the position[s] in the portfolio, change in risk tolerance of the Client, generating cash to meet
Client needs, or any risk deemed unacceptable for the Client’s risk tolerance.
Retirement Accounts – When the Advisor provides investment advice to Clients regarding ERISA retirement
accounts or individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), the Advisor is a fiduciary within the meaning of Title I of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) and/or the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”), as applicable,
Northbridge Financial Group, LLC

https://NorthbridgeFG.com
Page 4
which are laws governing retirement accounts. When deemed to be in the Client’s best interest, the Advisor will
provide investment advice to a Client regarding a distribution from an ERISA retirement account or to roll over
the assets to an IRA, or recommend a similar transaction including rollovers from one ERISA sponsored Plan to
another, one IRA to another IRA, or from one type of account to another account (e.g. commission-based
account to fee-based account). Such a recommendation creates a conflict of interest if the Advisor will earn a
new (or increase its current) advisory fee as a result of the transaction. No client is under any obligation to roll
over a retirement account to an account managed by the Advisor
At no time will Northbridge accept or maintain custody of a Client’s funds or securities, except for the limited
authority as outlined in Item 15 – Custody. All Client assets will be managed within the designated account[s] at
the Custodian, pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.
Financial Planning Services - Northbridge will typically provide financial planning and consulting services to
Clients as part of its wealth management services. Northbridge may also provide standalone financial planning
pursuant to a written financial planning agreement. Services are offered in several areas of a Client’s financial
situation, depending on their goals and objectives. Generally, such financial planning services involve preparing
a formal financial plan or rendering a specific financial consultation based on the Client’s financial goals and
objectives. This planning or consulting may encompass one or more areas of need, including but not limited to,
investment planning, retirement planning, personal savings, education savings, insurance needs, and other
areas of a Client’s financial situation.
A financial plan developed for, or financial consultation rendered to the Client will usually include general
recommendations for a course of activity or specific actions to be taken by the Client. For example,
recommendations may be made that the Client start or revise their investment programs, commence or alter
retirement savings, establish education savings and/or charitable giving programs.
Northbridge may also refer Clients to an accountant, attorney or other specialists, as appropriate for their unique
situation. For certain financial planning engagements, the Advisor will provide a written summary of the Client’s
financial situation, observations, and recommendations. For consulting or ad-hoc engagements, the Advisor may
not provide a written summary. Plans or consultations are typically completed within six (6) months of contract
date, assuming all information and documents requested are provided promptly.
Financial planning and consulting recommendations pose a conflict between the interests of the Advisor and the
interests of the Client. For example, the Advisor has an incentive to recommend that Clients engage the Advisor
for investment management services or to increase the level of investment assets with the Advisor, as it would
increase the amount of advisory fees paid to the Advisor. Clients are not obligated to implement any
recommendations made by the Advisor or maintain an ongoing relationship with the Advisor. If the Client elects
to act on any of the recommendations made by the Advisor, the Client is under no obligation to implement the
transaction through the Advisor.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Northbridge provides retirement plan advisory services on behalf of company retirement plans (each a “Plan”)
and the company (the “Plan Sponsor”). The Advisor’s retirement plan advisory services are designed to assist
the Plan Sponsor in meeting its fiduciary obligations to the Plan and its Plan Participants. Each engagement is
customized to the needs of the Plan and Plan Sponsor. Services generally include:
Investment Policy Statement (“IPS”) Design and Monitoring
Investment Oversight Services (ERISA 3(21))
• Vendor Analysis
• Plan Participant Enrollment and Education
•
•
• Performance Reporting
• Ongoing Investment Recommendation and Assistance
• ERISA 404(c) Assistance
• Benchmarking Services

These services are provided by Northbridge serving in the capacity as a fiduciary under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). In accordance with ERISA Section 408(b)(2),
the Plan Sponsor is provided with a written description of Northbridge’s fiduciary status, the specific services to
be rendered and all direct and indirect compensation the Advisor reasonably expects under the engagement.
C. Client Account Management
Prior to engaging Northbridge to provide investment advisory services, each Client is required to enter into one or
more agreements with the Advisor that define the terms, conditions, authority and responsibilities of the Advisor
and the Client. These services may include:
• Establishing an Investment Strategy – Northbridge, in connection with the Client, will develop a strategy
that seeks to achieve the Client’s goals and objectives.
• Asset Allocation – Northbridge will develop a strategic asset allocation that is targeted to meet the
investment objectives, time horizon, financial situation and tolerance for risk for each Client.
• Portfolio Construction – Northbridge will develop a portfolio for the Client that is intended to meet the
stated goals and objectives of the Client.
•
Investment Management and Supervision – Northbridge will provide investment management and
ongoing oversight of the Client’s investment portfolio.
D. Wrap Fee Programs
Northbridge includes securities transaction fees together with its wealth management fees. Including these fees
into a single asset-based fee is considered a “Wrap Fee Program”. The Advisor customizes its investment
management services for its Clients. The Advisor sponsors the Northbridge Wrap Fee Program solely as a
supplemental disclosure regarding the combination of fees. Depending on the level of trading required for the
Client’s account[s] in a particular year, the Client may pay more or less in total fees than if the Client paid its own
transaction fees. Please see Appendix 1 – Wrap Fee Program Brochure, which is included as a supplement to
this Disclosure Brochure.
E. Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2025, Northbridge manages $413,141,294 in Client assets, $373,439,783 of which are
managed on a discretionary basis and $39,701,511 on a non-discretionary basis. Clients may request more
current information at any time by contacting the Advisor.
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
The following paragraphs detail the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the
Advisor. Each Client engaging the Advisor for services described herein shall be required to enter into one more
written agreement with the Advisor.
A. Fees for Advisory Services
Wealth Management Services

investment advisory agreement. Wealth management fees are based on the market value of assets under

*Clients with less than $250,000 in assets under management at the start of our advisory relationship are offered
investment management and financial planning services as separate engagements.
The wealth management fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the inception date of the account[s] to the
end of the first quarter. Fees may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Advisor. The Client’s fee will take into
consideration the aggregate assets under management with the Advisor. All securities held in accounts managed
by Northbridge will be independently valued by the Custodian. The Advisor will conduct periodic reviews of the
Custodian’s valuation to ensure accurate billing.
Clients may make additions to and withdrawals from their account[s] at any time, subject to Northbridge’s right to
terminate an account. Additions may be in cash or securities provided that Northbridge reserves the right to
liquidate any transferred securities or decline to accept particular securities into a Client’s account[s]. Clients may
withdraw account assets with notice to Northbridge, subject to the usual and customary securities settlement
procedures. However, Northbridge designs its portfolios as long-term investments and the withdrawal of assets may
impair the achievement of a Client’s investment objectives. Northbridge may consult with its Clients about the
options and ramifications of transferring securities. However, Clients are advised that when transferred securities
are liquidated, they are subject to transaction fees, fees assessed at the mutual fund level (i.e. contingent deferred
sales charge) and/or tax ramifications. The Advisor’s fee is exclusive of, and in addition to any applicable securities
transaction and custody fees, and other related costs and expenses described in Item 5.C below, which may be
incurred by the Client. However, the Advisor shall not receive any portion of these commissions, fees, and costs.

Financial Planning Services
Northbridge typically offers financial planning services as part of its overall wealth management service.
Northbridge also offers project-based financial planning for an hourly fee and ongoing financial planning services for
a fixed annual fee. Hourly fees range up to $250 per hour, and fixed annual fees range up to $30,000 per year
charged monthly in advance. Fees may be negotiable based on the nature and complexity of the services to be
provided and the overall relationship with the Advisor. An estimate for total hours and/or total costs will be provided
to the Client prior to engaging for these services.

Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Retirement plan advisory fees are paid quarterly, generally in advance of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the
terms of the retirement plan advisory agreement. Fees are based on the market value of assets in the Plan at the
end of the prior calendar quarter. Fees range up to 1.00% annually and may be negotiable depending on the size
and complexity of the Plan.
B. Fee Billing
Wealth Management Services
Wealth management fees are calculated by the Advisor or its delegate and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at
the Custodian. The Advisor shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted
from the Client’s account[s] at the beginning of the respective quarter. The amount due is calculated by applying the
quarterly rate (annual rate divided by 4) to the total assets under management with Northbridge at the end of the
prior calendar quarter. Clients will be provided with a statement, at least quarterly, from the Custodian reflecting
deduction of the wealth management fee. Clients are urged to also review and compare the statement provided by
the Advisor to the brokerage statement from the Custodian, as the Custodian does not perform a verification of
fees. Clients provide written authorization permitting advisory fees to be deducted by Northbridge to be paid directly
from their account[s] held by the Custodian as part of the wealth management agreement and separate account
forms provided by the Custodian.
Financial Planning Services
Financial planning fees for hourly engagements are invoiced upon completion of the agreed upon deliverable[s].
Annual financial planning fees are invoiced by the Advisor and are due in advance of each calendar month. If the
Client is engaging the Advisor for ongoing financial planning services, ongoing planning fees shall commence at the
start of the following month and be billed thereafter on a monthly basis, in advance of each month. The Advisor
does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for any services that will be completed six (6) months or more in
advance.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Retirement plan advisory fees may be directly invoiced to the Plan Sponsor or deducted from the assets of the
Plan, depending on the terms of the retirement plan advisory agreement.
C. Other Fees and Expenses
Clients may incur certain fees or charges imposed by third parties in connection with investments made on behalf
of the Client’s account[s]. Northbridge includes securities transactions costs as part of its overall investment
advisory fee through the Northbridge Wrap Fee Program. Securities transaction fees for Client-directed trades
may be charged back to the Client. Please see Item 4.D. above as well as Appendix 1 – Wrap Fee Program
Brochure.
In addition, all fees paid to Northbridge for wealth management services are separate and distinct from the
expenses charged by mutual funds and ETFs to their shareholders, if applicable. These fees and expenses are
described in each fund’s prospectus. These fees and expenses will generally be used to pay management fees
for the funds, other fund expenses, account administration (e.g., custody, brokerage and account reporting), and
a possible distribution fee. A Client may be able to invest in these products directly, without the services of
Northbridge, but would not receive the services provided by Northbridge which are designed, among other
things, to assist the Client in determining which products or services are most appropriate for each Client’s
financial situation and objectives. Accordingly, the Client should review both the fees charged by the fund[s] and
the fees charged by Northbridge to fully understand the total fees to be paid. Please refer to Item 12 – Brokerage
Practices for additional information.
D. Advance Payment of Fees and Termination
Wealth Management Services
Northbridge may be compensated for its wealth management services in advance of the quarter in which services
are rendered. Either party may terminate the investment advisory agreement, at any time, by providing advance
written notice to the other party. The Client may also terminate the investment advisory agreement within five (5)

business days of signing the Advisor’s agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client will
incur charges for bona fide advisory services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and
payable by the Client. Upon termination, the Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid wealth management fees
from the effective date of termination to the end of the quarter. The Client’s investment advisory agreement with the
Advisor is non-transferable without the Client’s prior consent.
Financial Planning Services
Northbridge is compensated for its hourly financial planning and consulting services upon completion of the
engagement deliverables. Annual and ongoing financial planning fees are invoiced by the Advisor and are due in
advance of each calendar month. Northbridge may be partially compensated for its services in advance of the
engagement. Either party may terminate the financial planning agreement, at any time, by providing advance
written notice to the other party. The Client may also terminate the financial planning agreement within five (5)
business days of signing the Advisor’s agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client will
incur charges for bona fide advisory services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and
payable by the Client. Upon termination, the Client shall be billed for the percentage of the engagement completed
at the time of termination and the Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid fees. The Client’s financial planning
agreement with the Advisor is non-transferable without the Client’s prior consent.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Northbridge is compensated for its services in advance of the quarter in which retirement plan advisory services are
rendered. Either party may terminate the retirement plan advisory agreement, at any time, by providing advance
written notice to the other party. The Client may also terminate the retirement plan advisory agreement within five
(5) business days of signing the Advisor’s agreement at no cost to the Client. After the five-day period, the Client
will incur charges for bona fide advisory services rendered to the point of termination and such fees will be due and
payable by the Client. The Client shall be responsible for advisory fees up to and including the effective date of
termination. The Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid fees from the effective date of termination to the end of
the quarter. The Client’s retirement plan advisory agreement[s] with the Advisor is non-transferable without the
Client’s prior consent.
E. Compensation for Sales of Securities
Northbridge does not buy or sell securities to earn commissions and does not receive any compensation for
securities transactions in any Client account, other than the wealth management fees noted above.
Advisory Persons of Northbridge are also Registered Representatives of LPL Financial LLC (“LPL Financial”), a
securities broker-dealer, and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and the Securities
Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”). In one’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative of LPL
Financial, an Advisory Person will implement securities transactions under LPL Financial and not through
Northbridge. In such instances, an Advisory Person will receive commission-based compensation in connection
with the purchase and sale of securities, including 12b-1 fees for the sale of investment company products.
Compensation earned by an Advisory Person in one’s capacity as a Registered Representative is separate and in
addition to Northbridge’s advisory fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest because Advisory Persons who
are Registered Representatives have an incentive to effect securities transactions for the purpose of generating
commissions rather than solely based on Client needs. The Advisor mitigates this conflict in two ways. First, Clients
are under no obligation, contractually or otherwise, to implement securities products through the Advisor or
Advisory Persons. Second, Northbridge will not charge an ongoing wealth management fee on any assets
implemented in the Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative. Please see Item 10
below.
Advisory Persons are also licensed as independent insurance professionals. These Advisory Persons will earn
commission-based compensation for selling insurance products, including insurance products they sell to Clients.
Insurance commissions earned by these Advisory Persons are separate and in addition to advisory fees. This
practice presents a conflict of interest because Advisory Persons providing investment advice on behalf of the
Advisor who are insurance agents have an incentive to recommend insurance products to Clients for the purpose of
generating commissions rather than solely based on Client needs. However, Clients are under no obligation,

https://NorthbridgeFG.com
Page 9
contractually or otherwise, to purchase insurance products through any person affiliated with the Advisor. Please
see Item 10 below.
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Northbridge does not charge performance-based fees for its wealth management services. The fees charged by
Northbridge are as described in Item 5 above and are not based upon the capital appreciation of the funds or
securities held by any Client.
Northbridge does not manage any proprietary investment funds or limited partnerships (for example, a mutual
fund or a hedge fund) and has no financial incentive to recommend any particular investment options to its
Clients.
Item 7 – Types of Clients
Northbridge offers wealth management services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates,
businesses, and retirement plans. Northbridge generally does not impose a minimum relationship size.
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
A. Methods of Analysis
Northbridge primarily employs fundamental and technical analysis methods in developing investment strategies
for its Clients. Research and analysis from Northbridge are derived from numerous sources, including financial
media companies, third-party research materials, Internet sources, and review of company activities, including
annual reports, prospectuses, press releases and research prepared by others.
Fundamental analysis utilizes economic and business indicators as investment selection criteria. This criteria
consists generally of ratios and trends that may indicate the overall strength and financial viability of the entity
being analyzed. Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria to indicate that they are a strong
investment with a value discounted by the market. While this type of analysis helps the Advisor in evaluating a
potential investment, it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the
investment criteria utilized in the fundamental analysis may lose value and may have negative investment
performance. The Advisor monitors these economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations
are appropriate. More details on the Advisor’s review process are included below in Item 13 – Review of
Accounts.
Technical analysis involves the analysis of past market data rather than specific company data in determining the
recommendations made to clients. Technical analysis may involve the use of charts to identify market patterns
and trends, which may be based on investor sentiment rather than the fundamentals of the company. The
primary risk in using technical analysis is that spotting historical trends may not help to predict such trends in the
future. Even if the trend will eventually reoccur, there is no guarantee that Northbridge will be able to accurately
predict such a reoccurrence.
As noted above, Northbridge generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its Clients, as consistent with
their financial goals. Northbridge will typically hold all or a portion of a security for more than a year, but may hold
for shorter periods for the purpose of rebalancing a portfolio or meeting the cash needs of Clients. At times,
Northbridge may also buy and sell positions that are more short-term in nature, depending on the goals of the
Client and/or the fundamentals of the security, sector or asset class.
B. Risk of Loss
Investing in securities involves certain investment risks. Securities may fluctuate in value or lose value. Clients
should be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. Northbridge will assist Clients in determining an appropriate
strategy based on their tolerance for risk and other factors noted above. However, there is no guarantee that a
Client will meet their investment goals. Please see Item 8.B. for risks associated with the Advisor’s investment
strategies as well as general risks of investing.

While the methods of analysis help the Advisor in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that
the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in these methods of analysis
may lose value and may have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors these economic
indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate. More details on the Advisor’s
review process are included below in Item 13 – Review of Accounts.
Each Client engagement will entail a review of the Client’s investment goals, financial situation, time horizon,
tolerance for risk and other factors to develop an appropriate strategy for managing a Client’s account. Client
participation in this process, including full and accurate disclosure of requested information, is essential for the
analysis of a Client’s account[s]. The Advisor shall rely on the financial and other information provided by the
Client or their designees without the duty or obligation to validate the accuracy and completeness of the provided
information. It is the responsibility of the Client to inform the Advisor of any changes in financial condition, goals
or other factors that may affect this analysis.
The risks associated with a particular strategy are provided to each Client in advance of investing Client
accounts. The Advisor will work with each Client to determine their tolerance for risk as part of the portfolio
construction process. Following are some of the risks associated with the Advisor’s investment strategies:
Market Risks
The value of a Client’s holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to companies or markets, as well as
economic, political, or social events in the U.S. and abroad. This risk is linked to the performance of the overall
financial markets.
ETF Risks
The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the ETFs
will fluctuate with the price of the underlying securities that make up the funds. In addition, ETFs have a trading
risk based on the loss of cost efficiency if the ETFs are traded actively and a liquidity risk if the ETFs have a large
bid-ask spread and low trading volume. The price of an ETF fluctuates based upon the market movements and
may dissociate from the index being tracked by the ETF or the price of the underlying investments. An ETF
purchased or sold at one point in the day may have a different price than the same ETF purchased or sold a
short time later.
Bond Risks
Bonds are subject to specific risks, including the following: (1) interest rate risks, i.e. the risk that bond prices will
fall if interest rates rise, and vice versa, the risk depends on two things, the bond’s time to maturity, and the
coupon rate of the bond. (2) reinvestment risk, i.e. the risk that any profit gained must be reinvested at a lower
rate than was previously being earned, (3) inflation risk, i.e. the risk that the cost of living and inflation increase at
a rate that exceeds the income investment thereby decreasing the investor’s rate of return, (4) credit default risk,
i.e. the risk associated with purchasing a debt instrument which includes the possibility of the company defaulting
on its repayment obligation, (5) rating downgrades, i.e. the risk associated with a rating agency’s downgrade of
the company’s rating which impacts the investor’s confidence in the company’s ability to repay its debt and (6)
Liquidity Risks, i.e. the risk that a bond may not be sold as quickly as there is no readily available market for the
bond.
Mutual Fund Risks
The performance of mutual funds is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of
the mutual funds will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities that make up the funds. The price of a
mutual fund is typically set daily therefore a mutual fund purchased at one point in the day will typically have the
same price as a mutual fund purchased later that same day.
Alternative Investments (Limited Partnerships)
The performance of alternative investments (limited partnerships) can be volatile and may have limited liquidity.
An investor could lose all or a portion of their investment. Such investments often have concentrated positions

https://NorthbridgeFG.com
Page 11
and investments that may carry higher risks. Client should only have a portion of their assets in these
investments.
Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”)
Investing in Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) involves certain distinct risks in addition to those risks
associated with investing in the real estate industry in general. For Example, equity REITs may be affected by
changes in the value of the underlying property owned by the REITs, while mortgage REITs may be affected by
the quality of credit extended. REITs are subject to heavy cash flow dependency, default by borrowers and self-
liquidation. REITs, especially mortgage REITs, are also subject to interest rate risk (i.e., as interest rates rise, the
value of the REIT may decline).
Derivative Risks
Derivatives are difficult to define but are present in a wide variety of investments. In finance, derivatives refer to
contracts whose value is derived from another asset, which include stocks, bonds, currencies, interest rates,
commodities, and related indexes. Oftentimes derivatives are used as a hedge to protect against downside risk
but derivatives can also be used to speculate. Purchasers of derivatives are essentially wagering on the future
performance of that asset. Derivatives include such widely accepted products as futures and options. Due to the
speculative nature of derivatives, even when they are being employed to hedge, unique risks are present
including a party’s misunderstanding of the contract, inability of the derivative to match or derive its value from
the other asset, and the counter-party risk between the parties to the transaction.
Digital Assets Risks
Digital assets are highly speculative and volatile investments that may become illiquid at any time. Digital assets
are loosely regulated. Clients could lose the entire value of their investment in digital assets and is only suitable
for Clients with a high-risk tolerance.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities and other investments
involve a risk of loss that each Client should understand and be willing to bear. Clients are reminded to
discuss these risks with the Advisor.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
There are no legal, regulatory or disciplinary events involving Northbridge or its management person[s].
Northbridge values the trust Clients place in the Advisor. The Advisor encourages Clients to perform the requisite
due diligence on any advisor or service provider that the Client engages. The backgrounds of the Advisor or
Advisory Persons are available on the Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website at www.adviserinfo.sec.gov
by searching with the Advisor’s firm name or CRD# 310394.
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Broker-Dealer Affiliation
As noted in Item 5, Advisory Persons of Northbridge are also Registered Representatives of LPL Financial. In an
Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative, the Advisory Person will receive
commissions for the implementation of recommendations for commissionable transactions. Clients are not
obligated to implement any recommendation provided by an Advisory Person of Northbridge. Neither Northbridge
nor an Advisory Person will earn ongoing wealth management fees in connection with any services implemented
in the Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a Registered Representative. Under supervision by LPL Financial,
LPL Financial may have access to certain confidential information of the Client, including, but not limited to
financial information, investment objectives, transactions and holdings information. Please see the Advisor’s
Privacy Policy, which is included with this Disclosure Brochure.
Insurance Agency Affiliations
As noted in Item 5, Advisory Persons of Northbridge are also licensed insurance professionals. Implementations
of insurance recommendations are separate and apart from an Advisory Person’s role with Northbridge. As
insurance professionals, Advisory Persons will receive customary commissions and other related revenues from
Northbridge Financial Group, LLC

https://NorthbridgeFG.com
Page 12
the various insurance companies whose products are sold. Commissions generated by insurance sales do not
offset regular advisory fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest in recommending certain products of the
insurance companies. Clients are under no obligation to implement any recommendations made the Advisor or
its Advisory Persons.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
A. Code of Ethics
Northbridge has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines the Advisor’s fiduciary commitment to
each Client. This Code applies to all persons associated with Northbridge (“Supervised Persons”). The Code was
developed to provide general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding the Advisor’s duties to each
Client. Northbridge and its Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards each
Client. It is the obligation of Northbridge’s Supervised Persons to adhere not only to the specific provisions of the
Code, but also to the general principles that guide the Code. The Code covers a range of topics that address
employee ethics and conflicts of interest. To request a copy of the Code, please contact the Advisor at (813) 877-
8000.
B. Personal Trading with Material Interest
Northbridge allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to
and purchased on behalf of Clients. Northbridge does not act as principal in any transactions. In addition, the
Advisor does not act as the general partner of a fund, or advise an investment company. Northbridge does not
have a material interest in any securities traded in Client accounts.
C. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
Northbridge allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to
and purchased on behalf of Clients. Owning the same securities that are recommended (purchase or sell) to
Clients presents a conflict of interest that, as fiduciaries, must be disclosed to Clients and mitigated through
policies and procedures. As noted above, the Advisor has adopted the Code to address insider trading (material
non-public information controls); gifts and entertainment; outside business activities and personal securities
reporting. When trading for personal accounts, Supervised Persons have a conflict of interest if trading in the
same securities. The fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of its Clients can be violated if personal trades are
made with more advantageous terms than Client trades, or by trading based on material non-public information.
This risk is mitigated by Northbridge requiring reporting of personal securities trades by its Supervised Persons
for review by the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). The Advisor has also adopted written policies and
procedures to detect the misuse of material, non-public information.
D. Personal Trading at Same Time as Client
While Northbridge allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended
to and purchased on behalf of Clients, such trades are typically aggregated with Client orders or traded
afterwards. At no time will Northbridge, or any Supervised Person of Northbridge, transact in any security
to the detriment of any Client.
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
A. Recommendation of Custodian[s]
Northbridge does not have discretionary authority to select the broker-dealer/custodian for custody and execution
services. The Client will engage the broker-dealer/custodian (herein the “Custodian”) to safeguard Client assets
and authorize Northbridge to direct trades to the Custodian as agreed upon in the investment advisory
agreement. Further, Northbridge does not have the discretionary authority to negotiate commissions on behalf of
Clients on a trade-by-trade basis. Where Northbridge does not exercise discretion over the selection of the
Custodian, it may recommend the Custodian[s] to Clients for custody and execution services. As certain Advisory
Persons are also registered representatives of LPL Financial, Northbridge and its Advisory Persons are limited in
the Custodian[s] in which they can recommend to Clients. Clients are not obligated to use the recommended
Custodian and will not incur any extra fee or cost from the Advisor associated with using a custodian not

Page 13
recommended by Northbridge. However, the Advisor may be limited in the services it can provide if the
recommended Custodian is not engaged. Northbridge will recommend that Clients establish their accounts at
LPL Financial, Fidelity Clearing and Custody Solutions and related divisions of Fidelity Investments, Inc.
(collectively “Fidelity”), or Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”). LPL Financial, Fidelity, and Schwab (the
“Custodians”) are FINRA-registered broker-dealers and members SIPC. The selected Custodian will serve as the
Client’s “qualified custodian”. Northbridge maintains an institutional relationship with LPL Financial. Fidelity, and
Schwab, whereby the Advisor receives certain benefits from these Custodians. Please see Item 14 below.
Following are additional details regarding the brokerage practices of the Advisor:
Northbridge receives support services and/or products from LPL Financial, many of which assist Northbridge to
better monitor and service program accounts maintained at LPL Financial; however, some of the services and
products benefit Northbridge and not client accounts. These support services and/or products may be received
without cost, at a discount, and/or at a negotiated rate, and may include the following:
investment-related research
software and other technology that provide access to client account data
compliance and/or practice management-related publications
consulting services
computer hardware and/or software
•
• pricing information and market data
•
•
•
• attendance at conferences, meetings, and other educational and/or social events
• marketing support
•
• other products and services used by Northbridge in furtherance of its investment advisory business
operations
LPL Financial may provide these services and products directly, or may arrange for third party vendors to provide
the services or products to Advisor. In the case of third party vendors, LPL Financial may pay for some or all of
the third party’s fees.
These support services are provided to Northbridge based on the overall relationship between Northbridge and
LPL Financial. It is not the result of soft dollar arrangements or any other express arrangements with LPL
Financial that involves the execution of client transactions as a condition to the receipt of services. Northbridge
will continue to receive the services regardless of the volume of client transactions executed with LPL Financial.
Clients do not pay more for services as a result of this arrangement. There is no corresponding commitment
made by the Northbridge to LPL or any other entity to invest any specific amount or percentage of client assets in
any specific securities as a result of the arrangement. However, because Advisor receives these benefits from
LPL Financial, there is a potential conflict of interest. The receipt of these products and services presents a
financial incentive for Advisor to recommend that its clients use LPL Financial’s custodial platform rather than
another custodian’s platform.
1. Soft Dollars – Soft dollars are revenue programs offered by broker-dealers/custodians whereby an advisor
enters into an agreement to place security trades with a broker-dealer/custodian in exchange for research and
other services. Northbridge does not participate in soft dollar programs sponsored or offered by any broker-
dealer/custodian. However, the Advisor receives certain economic benefits from the Custodian. Please see Item
14 below.
2. Brokerage Referrals – Northbridge does not receive any compensation from any third party in connection
with the recommendation for establishing an account.
3. Directed Brokerage – All Clients are serviced on a “directed brokerage basis”, where Northbridge will place
trades within the established account[s] at the Custodian designated by the Client. Further, all Client accounts
are traded within their respective account[s]. The Advisor will not engage in any principal transactions (i.e., trade
of any security from or to the Advisor’s own account) or cross transactions with other Client accounts (i.e.,
purchase of a security into one Client account from another Client’s account[s]). Northbridge will not be obligated
to select competitive bids on securities transactions and does not have an obligation to seek the lowest available
transaction costs. These costs are determined by the Custodian.

https://NorthbridgeFG.com
Page 14
B. Aggregating and Allocating Trades
The primary objective in placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities for Client accounts is to obtain the
most favorable net results taking into account such factors as 1) price, 2) size of the order, 3) difficulty of
execution, 4) confidentiality and 5) skill required of the Custodian. Northbridge will execute its transactions
through the Custodian as authorized by the Client. Northbridge may aggregate orders in a block trade or trades
when securities are purchased or sold through the Custodian for multiple (discretionary) accounts in the same
trading day. If a block trade cannot be executed in full at the same price or time, the securities actually purchased
or sold by the close of each business day must be allocated in a manner that is consistent with the initial pre-
allocation or other written statement. This must be done in a way that does not consistently advantage or
disadvantage any particular Clients’ accounts.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
A. Frequency of Reviews
Securities in Client accounts are monitored on a regular and continuous basis by Advisory Persons of
Northbridge and periodically by ther CCO. Formal reviews are generally conducted at least annually or more
frequently depending on the needs of the Client.
B. Causes for Reviews
In addition to the investment monitoring noted in Item 13.A., each Client account shall be reviewed at least
annually. Reviews may be conducted more frequently at the Client’s request. Accounts may be reviewed as a
result of major changes in economic conditions, known changes in the Client’s financial situation, and/or large
deposits or withdrawals in the Client’s account[s]. The Client is encouraged to notify Northbridge if changes occur
in the Client’s personal financial situation that might adversely affect the Client’s investment plan. Additional
reviews may be triggered by material market, economic or political events.
C. Review Reports
The Client will receive brokerage statements no less than quarterly from the Custodian. These brokerage
statements are sent directly from the Custodian to the Client. The Client may also establish electronic access to
the Custodian’s website so that the Client may view these reports and their account activity. Client brokerage
statements will include all positions, transactions and fees relating to the Client’s account[s]. The Advisor may
also provide Clients with periodic reports regarding their holdings, allocations, and performance.
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
A. Compensation Received by Northbridge
Northbridge may refer Clients to various unaffiliated, non-advisory professionals (e.g. attorneys, accountants,
estate planners) to provide certain financial services necessary to meet the goals of its Clients. Likewise,
Northbridge may receive non-compensated referrals of new Clients from various third-parties.
.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform - Schwab
Northbridge has established an institutional relationship with Schwab through its “Schwab Advisor Services” unit,
a division of Schwab dedicated to serving independent advisory firms like Northbridge. As a registered
investment advisor participating on the Schwab Advisor Services platform, Northbridge receives access to
software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders investment management services to
Clients that maintain assets at Schwab. Services provided by Schwab Advisor Services benefit the Advisor and
many, but not all services provided by Schwab will benefit Clients. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor
endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of
economic benefits from a custodian creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor’s
recommendation of this custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.

https://NorthbridgeFG.com
Page 15
Services that Benefit the Client – Schwab’s institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of
investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of Client’s funds and securities. Through
Schwab, the Advisor may be able to access certain investments and asset classes that the Client would not be
able to obtain directly or through other sources. Further, the Advisor may be able to invest in certain mutual funds
and other investments without having to adhere to investment minimums that might be required if the Client were
to directly access the investments.
Services that May Indirectly Benefit the Client – Schwab provides participating advisors with access to
technology, research, discounts and other services. In addition, the Advisor receives duplicate statements for
Client accounts, the ability to deduct advisory fees, trading tools, and back office support services as part of its
relationship with Schwab. These services are intended to assist the Advisor in effectively managing accounts for
its Clients, but may not directly benefit all Clients.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform - Fidelity
As noted in Item 12, Northbridge has established an institutional relationship with Fidelity to assist the Advisor in
managing Client account[s].
As part of the arrangement, Fidelity also makes available to the Advisor, at no additional charge to the Advisor,
certain research and brokerage services, including research services obtained by Fidelity directly from
independent research companies. The Advisor may also receive additional services and support from Fidelity. As
a result of receiving such services for no additional cost, the Advisor may have an incentive to continue to use or
expand the use of Fidelity services. The Advisor examined this potential conflict of interest when it chose to enter
into the relationship with Fidelity and has determined that the relationship is in the best interests of the Advisor’s
Clients and satisfies its Client obligations, including its duty to seek best execution. Please see Item 12 above.
The Advisor receives access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders
investment management services to Clients that maintain assets at Fidelity The software and related systems
support may benefit the Advisor, but not its Clients directly. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor
endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of
economic benefits from a Custodian creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor’s
recommendation of this Custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals
Northbridge does not compensate, either directly or indirectly, any persons who are not supervised persons, for
Client referrals.
Item 15 – Custody
The Advisor is authorized to deduct its fees from the Client’s account[s] at the Custodian. The Client must place
all assets with a “qualified custodian”. The Client is required to engage the Custodian to retain all funds and
securities and direct the Advisor to utilize that Custodian for security transactions in the account[s]. The Client
should review statements provided by the Custodian, as the Custodian does not perform this review. For more
information about custodians and brokerage practices, see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices.
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
Northbridge generally has discretion over the selection and amount of securities to be bought or sold in Client
accounts without obtaining prior consent or approval from the Client. However, these purchases or sales may be
subject to specified investment objectives, guidelines, or limitations previously set forth by the Client and agreed
to by Northbridge. Discretionary authority will only be authorized upon full disclosure to the Client. The granting of
such authority will be evidenced by the Client's execution of an investment advisory agreement containing all
applicable limitations to such authority. All discretionary trades made by Northbridge will be in accordance with
each Client's investment objectives and goals.

Page 16
In certain circumstances, Northbridge does not have discretion over the selection and amount of securities to be
bought or sold in Client accounts without obtaining prior approval from the Client. The Advisor will contact the
Client and obtain approval prior to executing trades or allocating investment assets.
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
Northbridge does not accept proxy-voting responsibility for any Client. Clients will receive proxy statements
directly from the Custodian. The Advisor will assist in answering questions relating to proxies, however, the Client
retains the sole responsibility for proxy decisions and voting.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Neither Northbridge, nor its management, have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair the
ability of Northbridge to meet all obligations to its Clients. Neither Northbridge, nor any of its Advisory Persons,
have been subject to a bankruptcy or financial compromise. Northbridge is not required to deliver a balance
sheet along with this Disclosure Brochure as the Advisor does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for
services to be performed six months or more in the future.

Item 4 – Services Fees and Compensation
A. Services
Northbridge provides customized investment advisory services for its Clients. This Wrap Fee Program Brochure
is provided as a supplement to the Northbridge Disclosure Brochure (Form ADV 2A). This Wrap Fee Program
Brochure is provided along with the complete Disclosure Brochure to provide full details of the business practices
and fees when selecting Northbridge as your investment advisor.
As part of the wealth management fees noted in Item 5 of the Disclosure Brochure, Northbridge includes normal
securities transaction fees (herein “Covered Costs”) as part of the overall wealth management fee. Securities
regulations often refer to this combined fee structure as a “Wrap Fee Program”. The Advisor sponsors the
Northbridge Wrap Fee Program.
The sole purpose of this Wrap Fee Program Brochure is to provide additional disclosure relating the combination
of securities transaction fees into the single “bundled” investment advisory fee. This Wrap Fee Program Brochure
references back to the Northbridge Disclosure Brochure in which this Wrap Fee Program Brochure serves as an
Appendix. Please see Item 4 – Advisory Services of the Disclosure Brochure for details on Northbridge’s
investment philosophy and related services.
B. Program Costs
Advisory services provided by Northbridge are offered in a wrap fee structure whereby Covered Costs are
included in the overall investment advisory fee paid to Northbridge. As the level of trading in a Client’s account[s]
may vary from year to year, the annual cost to the Client may be more or less than engaging for advisory
services where the transactions costs are borne separately by the Client. The cost of the Wrap Fee Program
varies depending on services to be provided to each Client, however, the Client is not charged more if there is
higher trading activity in the Client’s account[s]. A Wrap Fee structure has a potential conflict of interest as the
Advisor may have an incentive to limit the number of trades placed in the Client’s account[s]. Please see Item 5
– Fees and Compensation of the Disclosure Brochure for complete details on fees.
C. Fees
As noted above, the Wrap Fee Program includes Covered Costs incurred in connection with the discretionary
and non-discretionary wealth management services provided by Northbridge. Securities transaction fees for
Client-directed trades may be charged back to the Client. Clients may incur certain fees or charges imposed by
third parties in connection with investments made on behalf of the Client’s account[s]. Under this Wrap Fee
Program, Northbridge includes securities transactions costs, custody fees and administrative fees as part of its
overall wealth mannagement fee.
Wealth management fees are paid quarterly, in advance of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the terms of the
investment advisory agreement. Wealth management fees are based on the market value of assets under
management at the end of the prior calendar calendar quarter. Wealth management fees are based on the
following tiered schedule:
Annual Rate (%)

*Clients with less than $250,000 in assets under management at the start of our advisory relationship are offered
investment management and financial planning services as separate engagements.
The wealth management fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the inception date of the account[s] to the
end of the first quarter. Fees may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Advisor. The Client’s fee will take into
consideration the aggregate assets under management with the Advisor. All securities held in accounts managed
by Northbridge will be independently valued by the Custodian. The Advisor will conduct periodic reviews of the
Custodian’s valuation to ensure accurate billing.
Wealth management fees are calculated by the Advisor or its delegate and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at
the Custodian. The Advisor shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted
from the Client’s account[s] at the beginning of the respective quarter. The amount due is calculated by applying the
quarterly rate (annual rate divided by 4) to the total assets under management with Northbridge at the end of the
prior calendar quarter. Clients will be provided with a statement, at least quarterly, from the Custodian reflecting
deduction of the wealth management fee. Clients are urged to also review and compare the statement provided by
the Advisor to the brokerage statement from the Custodian, as the Custodian does not perform a verification of
fees. Clients provide written authorization permitting advisory fees to be deducted by Northbridge to be paid directly
from their account[s] held by the Custodian as part of the wealth management agreement and separate account
forms provided by the Custodian.
In addition, all fees paid to Northbridge for investment advisory services or part of the Wrap Fee Program are
separate and distinct from the expenses charged by mutual funds and exchange-traded funds to their shareholders,
if applicable. These fees and expenses are described in each fund’s prospectus. These fees and expenses will
generally be used to pay management fees for the funds, other fund expenses, account administration (e.g.,
custody, brokerage and account reporting), and a possible distribution fee. The Client may also incur other costs
assessed by the Custodian or other parties for account related activity fees, such as wire transfer fees, fees for
trades executed away from the Custodian and other fees. The Advisor does not control nor share in these fees. The
Client should review both the fees charged by the fund[s] and the fees charged by Northbridge to fully understand
the total fees to be paid. Please see Item 5.C. – Other Fees and Expenses in the Disclosure Brochure (included
with this Wrap Fee Program Brochure).
D. Compensation
Northbridge is the sponsor and portfolio manager of this Wrap Fee Program. Northbridge receives investment
advisory fees paid by Clients for participating in the Wrap Fee Program and pays the Custodian for the costs
associated with the normal trading activity in the Client’s account[s].
Item 5 – Account Requirements and Types of Clients
Northbridge offers investment advisory services individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts, estates,
businesses, and retirement plans. Northbridge generally does not impose a minimum account size for
establishing a relationship. Please see Item 7 – Types of Clients in the Disclosure Brochure for additional
information.

Methods of Analysis
Please see Item 8 of the Disclosure Brochure (included with this Wrap Fee Program Brochure) for details on the
research and analysis methods employed by the Advisor.
Risk of Loss
Investing in securities involves certain investment risks. Securities may fluctuate in value or lose value. Clients
should be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. Northbridge will assist Clients in determining an appropriate
strategy based on their tolerance for risk and other factors noted above. However, there is no guarantee that a
Client will meet their investment goals. Please see Item 8.B. for risks associated with the Advisor’s investment
strategies as well as general risks of investing.
Each Client engagement will entail a review of the Client's investment goals, financial situation, time horizon,
tolerance for risk and other factors to develop an appropriate strategy for managing a Client's account. Client
participation in this process, including full and accurate disclosure of requested information, is essential for the
analysis of a Client's account[s]. The Advisor shall rely on the financial and other information provided by the
Client or their designees without the duty or obligation to validate the accuracy and completeness of the provided
information. It is the responsibility of the Client to inform the Advisor of any changes in financial condition, goals
or other factors that may affect this analysis.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities and other investments
involve a risk of loss that each Client should understand and be willing to bear. Clients are reminded to
discuss these risks with the Advisor. Please see Item 8.B. – Risk of Loss in the Disclosure Brochure for
details on investment risks.
Proxy Voting
Northbridge does not accept proxy-voting responsibility for any Client. Clients will receive proxy statements
directly from the Custodian. The Advisor will assist in answering questions relating to proxies, however, the Client
retains the sole responsibility for proxy decisions and voting.
Item 7 – Client Information Provided to Portfolio Managers
Northbridge is the sponsor and sole portfolio manager for the Program. The Advisor does not share Client
information with other portfolio managers because it is the sole portfolio manager for this Wrap Fee Program.

Client Transactions and Personal Trading in the Disclosure Brochure (included with this Wrap Fee Program

practices are provided in Item 13 of the Form ADV Part 2A – Disclosure Brochure.
Other Compensation
As noted throughout this Disclosure Brochure, Advisory Persons of Northbridge may also be registered
representatives of LPL Financial and/or licensed insurance professionals. For information on the conflicts of
interest this presents, and how we address these conflicts, please refer to the Item 10 of the Disclosure
Brochure.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform (LPL Financial)
Northbridge has established an institutional relationship with LPL Financial to assist the Advisor in managing Client
account[s]. Access to the LPL Financial platform is provided at no charge to the Advisor. The Advisor receives
access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders investment management services
to Clients that maintain assets at LPL Financial. The software and related systems support may benefit the Advisor,
but not its Clients directly. Further, LPL Financial has provided the Advisor with financial support in the start-up of
this registered investment advisor. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor endeavors at all times to put the
interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic benefits from a
Custodian creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor's recommendation of this
Custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform (“Schwab”)
Northbridge has established an institutional relationship with Schwab through its “Schwab Advisor Services” unit,
a division of Schwab dedicated to serving independent advisory firms like Northbridge. As a registered
investment advisor participating on the Schwab Advisor Services platform, Northbridge receives access to
software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders investment management services to
Clients that maintain assets at Schwab. Services provided by Schwab Advisor Services benefit the Advisor and
many, but not all services provided by Schwab will benefit Clients. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor
endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of

Page 23
economic benefits from a custodian creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor's
recommendation of this custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.
Services that Benefit the Client – Schwab’s institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of
investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of Client’s funds and securities. Through
Schwab, the Advisor may be able to access certain investments and asset classes that the Client would not be
able to obtain directly or through other sources. Further, the Advisor may be able to invest in certain mutual funds
and other investments without having to adhere to investment minimums that might be required if the Client were
to directly access the investments.
Services that May Indirectly Benefit the Client – Schwab provides participating advisors with access to
technology, research, discounts and other services. In addition, the Advisor receives duplicate statements for
Client accounts, the ability to deduct advisory fees, trading tools, and back office support services as part of its
relationship with Schwab. These services are intended to assist the Advisor in effectively managing accounts for
its Clients, but may not directly benefit all Clients.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform - Fidelity
As noted in Item 12, Northbridge has established an institutional relationship with Fidelity to assist the Advisor in
managing Client account[s].
As part of the arrangement, Fidelity also makes available to the Advisor, at no additional charge to the Advisor,
certain research and brokerage services, including research services obtained by Fidelity directly from
independent research companies. The Advisor may also receive additional services and support from Fidelity. As
a result of receiving such services for no additional cost, the Advisor may have an incentive to continue to use or
expand the use of Fidelity services. The Advisor examined this potential conflict of interest when it chose to enter
into the relationship with Fidelity and has determined that the relationship is in the best interests of the Advisor’s
Clients and satisfies its Client obligations, including its duty to seek best execution. Please see Item 12 above.
The Advisor receives access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor renders
investment management services to Clients that maintain assets at Fidelity The software and related systems
support may benefit the Advisor, but not its Clients directly. In fulfilling its duties to its Clients, the Advisor
endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of
economic benefits from a Custodian creates a conflict of interest since these benefits may influence the Advisor’s
recommendation of this Custodian over one that does not furnish similar software, systems support, or services.
Please see Item 14 – Other Compensation in the Form ADV Part 2A – Disclosure Brochure (included with this
Wrap Fee Program Brochure) for details on additional compensation that may be received by Northbridge or its
Advisory Persons. Each Advisory Person’s Brochure Supplement (also included with this Wrap Fee Program
Brochure) provides details on any outside business activities and the associated compensation.
Compensation for Client Referrals
Northbridge does not compensate, either directly or indirectly, any persons who are not supervised persons, for
Client referrals.
Financial Information
Neither Northbridge, nor its management, have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair the
ability of Northbridge to meet all obligations to its Clients. Neither Northbridge, nor any of its Advisory Persons,
have been subject to a bankruptcy or financial compromise. Northbridge is not required to deliver a balance
sheet along with this Disclosure Brochure as the Advisor does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for
services to be performed six months or more in the future.

Certified Financial Planner™ (“CFP®”)
The Certified Financial Planner™, CFP®, and federally registered CFP® (with flame design) marks (collectively,
the “CFP® marks”) are professional certification marks granted in the United States by Certified Financial
Planner™ Board of Standards, Inc. (“CFP® Board”).
The CFP® certification is a voluntary certification; no federal or state law or regulation requires financial planners
to hold CFP® certification. It is recognized in the United States and a number of other countries for its (1) high
standard of professional education; (2) stringent code of conduct and standards of practice; and (3) ethical
requirements that govern professional engagements with clients. Currently, more than 71,000 individuals have
obtained CFP® certification in the United States.
To attain the right to use the CFP® marks, an individual must satisfactorily fulfill the following requirements:
• Education – Complete an advanced college-level course of study addressing the financial planning
subject areas that CFP® Board’s studies have determined as necessary for the competent and
professional delivery of financial planning services, and attain a Bachelor’s Degree from a regionally
accredited United States college or university (or its equivalent from a foreign university). CFP® Board’s
financial planning subject areas include insurance planning and risk management, employee benefits
planning, investment planning, income tax planning, retirement planning, and estate planning;
• Examination – Pass the comprehensive CFP® Certification Examination. The examination includes case
studies and client scenarios designed to test one’s ability to correctly diagnose financial planning issues
and apply one’s knowledge of financial planning to real-world circumstances;
• Experience – Complete at least three years of full-time financial planning-related experience (or the
equivalent, measured as 2,000 hours per year); and
• Ethics – Agree to be bound by CFP® Board’s Standards of Professional Conduct, a set of documents
outlining the ethical and practice standards for CFP® professionals.
Individuals who become certified must complete the following ongoing education and ethics requirements in
order to maintain the right to continue to use the CFP® marks:
• Continuing Education – Complete 30 hours of continuing education hours every two years, including two
hours on the Code of Ethics and other parts of the Standards of Professional Conduct, to maintain
competence and keep up with developments in the financial planning field; and
• Ethics – Renew an agreement to be bound by the Standards of Professional Conduct. The Standards
prominently require that CFP® professionals provide financial planning services at a fiduciary standard of
care. This means CFP® professionals must provide financial planning services in the best interests of
their clients.
CFP® professionals who fail to comply with the above standards and requirements may be subject to CFP®
Board’s enforcement process, which could result in suspension or permanent revocation of their CFP®.
