Item 4 – Advisory Services
A. Firm Information
Perigon Wealth Management, LLC (“Perigon”, the “Advisor” or “we”) is an investment advisory firm registered with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Perigon provides comprehensive financial advisory
services to help clients meet their financial and retirement goals. Perigon offers a suite of services that are attuned
to the needs and goals of each client. Perigon is a Limited Liability Company (LLC) formed under the laws of
Delaware, headquartered in California. Perigon was founded in March 2004 and is fully owned by Perigon
Financial Holdings, LLC.
Perigon offers advisory services through its network of investment advisor representatives (“IARs”). While in all
cases advisory services are provided through Perigon Wealth Management, LLC, certain IARs may have their
own legal business entities whose trade names and logos are used for marketing purposes and which may appear
in marketing or other materials. This includes IARs who may use the names Blue Water Capital Management,
Cognizant Wealth Advisors, PM Wealth Management, Prudeo Partners, Stakeholders Capital, and/or Wealth
Advisors.
B. Advisory Services Offered
Perigon offers comprehensive investment advisory services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts,
estates, businesses, charitable organizations, retirement plans, and banking or thrift institutions (each referred to
as a “Client”). Perigon and its IARs serve as a fiduciary to Clients, and we always offer investment advisory
services we believe are in the best interest of our Clients. As a fiduciary, Perigon upholds a duty of loyalty, fairness,
and good faith toward each Client and seeks to mitigate potential conflicts of interest. Perigon’s fiduciary
commitment is further described in the Code of Ethics. For more information regarding the Code of Ethics, please
see Item 11.
Wealth Management Services
Perigon provides Clients with individualized wealth management services, which generally include a broad range
of comprehensive financial planning services in connection with discretionary and non-discretionary management
of investment portfolios pursuant to a wealth advisory agreement. The investment management and financial
planning services we offer are described in more detail below. We tailor investment solutions to the individual
needs of clients by – amongst other things – understanding Clients’ goals, needs and objectives and then
recommending and/or implementing a portfolio or solution geared towards those goals, needs and objectives.
Clients can place reasonable restrictions in relation to their holdings, including in relation to investing in certain
securities or types of securities, subject to firm approval and acceptance.
Perigon works closely with each Client to identify their investment goals and objectives, risk tolerance, and
financial situation to create a portfolio strategy suited to them. Based upon the Client’s input, Perigon constructs
an investment portfolio that utilizes a mix of independent investment managers, customized investment
management services, and/or one of its investment strategies to help achieve the Client’s investment goals.
Perigon may utilize mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), individual stocks, bonds, options contracts,
alternative investments, including digital assets, and private collective investment vehicles, as appropriate, to meet
the needs of its Clients. The Advisor may retain other types of investments from the Client’s legacy portfolio due
to fit with the overall portfolio strategy, for tax-related reasons, or for other reasons as identified between the
Advisor and the Client, and may at times offer other investment vehicles if it is in the best interest of clients. As is
described in more detail below, clients may be enrolled in a wrap fee program (for which Perigon receives a portion
of the wrap fee for our services) if it is determined that doing so is in their best interest, but overall investment
management is not different for accounts simply because they are enrolled in such programs.
Perigon’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. Perigon may also recommend, on occasion, redistributing investment allocations to diversify the
portfolio or may recommend specific positions to increase sector or asset class weightings. Perigon may also
recommend employing cash positions as a possible hedge against market movement or to address Client needs.
Perigon 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, changes in the risk tolerance of the Client, generating cash to meet
Client needs, or any risk deemed unacceptable for the Client’s risk tolerance.
Perigon selects, recommends, and/or retains mutual funds on a fund-by-fund basis and seeks to use share
classes that are in the best interest of each Client given that Client’s individual circumstances and needs. Due to
specific custodial or mutual fund company constraints, material tax considerations, and/or systematic investment
plans, Perigon may select, recommend, and/or retain a mutual fund share class that has a higher expense ratio
than an equivalent share class or than may be available in similar types of holdings. Perigon will generally seek
to select the lowest cost share class available that is in the best interest of each Client and will ensure the selection
aligns with the Client’s financial objectives and state investment guidelines.
Internal Investment Management Services – Perigon uses a combination of core and non-core investment
strategies managed by Perigon’s centralized investment team for relevant clients. Each strategy is broadly
designed to meet a particular investment goal and typically represent the “core” of an investor’s holdings in such
situations.
Core Strategies:
1. Perigon Blue Chip – Seeks to invest in well-established, high-quality, large capitalization companies with
meaningful growth prospects that invest efficiently in their future growth prospects. The desired result is
a long-term balance of current growth and reinvestment in activities that give rise to a balanced increase
in long-term shareholder value. The strategy aims for returns consistent with the S&P 500.
2. Fixed Income – As dictated by Clients’ needs, fixed income portfolios range from taxable bonds to tax-
free bonds, and for smaller allocations, taxable ETFs. Across each of these strategies, Perigon’s principal
goal is to prudently obtain Client income objectives while preserving their capital invested against market
volatility and long-term inflation.
3. Dimensional Fund Advisors (“DFA”) – DFA is a third-party investment management company that
provides a passive, “multi-factor” strategy that combines insights of Modern Portfolio Theory and the
Efficient Markets Hypothesis with streamlined portfolio operations. The focus of DFA is on taking
"advantage of the ways markets are right – the ways they compensate investors." By incorporating the
dimensions of expected returns into an investment strategy, DFA offers a sound passive strategy with the
potential for outperformance but requires balancing the trade-offs among competing premiums. Perigon
is among the selected advisors with access to the DFA models and strategies.
4. Perigon Enhanced Equity – The enhanced equity strategy is designed to capture the meaningful upside
of a given asset class while tempering downside price volatility. This return profile is achieved by
combining underlying investments with exchange-traded options – considering implied volatility, interest
rates, recent performance, and many other factors to identify the preferred risk-adjusted structure to own
a given underlying investment.
Non-Core Strategy:
● Concentrated Position Management – Perigon offers customized concentrated stock position
management. Programs can be designed to meet individual Client needs, including volatility reduction,
monetizing out-of-the-money stock options, or implementing a structured sale program.
Each Client’s solution generally begins by analyzing the underlying securities, creating a “Price Probability
Envelope” defined by estimating the cost of protection vs. upside participation. Perigon manages these accounts
on a discretionary basis. Account supervision is guided by the Client’s stated objectives, as well as tax
considerations. Through personal discussions with the Client in which the Client’s goals and objectives are
established, Perigon determines if the strategy is suitable to the Client’s circumstances. Once Perigon determines
the suitability of the portfolio, the portfolio is managed based on the portfolio’s strategy rather than on each Client’s

individual needs. Clients, nevertheless, have the opportunity to place reasonable restrictions on the types of
investments to be held in their account, subject to firm approval.
Use of Independent Managers – For relevant clients Perigon recommends that a Client utilize one or more
unaffiliated investment managers or investment platforms (collectively “Independent Managers”) for all or a portion
of a Client’s investment portfolio, based on the Client’s needs and objectives. In certain instances, the Client may
be required to authorize and enter into an advisory agreement with such Independent Managers that define the
terms in which the Independent Manager will provide investment management and related services. The Advisor
will perform initial and ongoing oversight and due diligence over the selected Independent Managers to ensure
the Independent Manager’s strategies and target allocations remain aligned with a Client's investment objectives
and overall best interests. The Advisor will also assist in the development of the initial policy recommendations
and managing the ongoing Client relationship. Prior to entering into an agreement with an unaffiliated Investment
Manager, the Client will be provided with the Independent Manager's Form ADV 2A (or a brochure that makes the
appropriate disclosures) as required by law.
Use of Sub-Advisors – Perigon may periodically recommend and refer Clients to unaffiliated money managers,
investment advisors (herein “Sub-Advisors”), or turnkey asset management programs (“TAMPs”) at Perigon’s
discretion or the Client’s request. In certain instances, the Client may be required to authorize and enter into an
investment management agreement with the Sub-Advisor or TAMP that defines the terms in which the Sub-
Advisor or TAMP will provide its services. Perigon will remain the Client’s primary Advisor and oversee the Client’s
investment allocations and overall investment performance in such scenarios. While the Sub-Advisor or TAMP
assumes day-to-day investment management of the assets, Perigon is responsible for establishing the Client’s
investment objectives and recommending a Sub-Advisor’s or TAMP’s investment strategy to meet those
objectives. The Client will be provided with the Sub-Advisor’s or TAMP’s Form ADV Part 2A (or a brochure that
makes the appropriate disclosures) as required by law.
Certain TAMPs offer proprietary products such as cash investment vehicles and cash sweeps. In these instances,
the interest rates on the cash investment vehicles and cash sweep products in certain instances can provide a
lower interest rate than equivalent cash sweep products. The use of proprietary cash investment vehicles by a
TAMP presents a conflict of interest as the TAMP provider benefits economically when Client assets are invested
in a proprietary product. Perigon does not receive any additional compensation or economic benefit from the
TAMP when Clients invest in proprietary products, including cash investment vehicles. The Advisor mitigates this
conflict by providing Clients with full disclosures of the TAMP provider’s use of proprietary products, including
cash investment vehicles, before recommending Clients invest all or a portion of their assets with the TAMP.
Certain TAMPs provide back-office administration services to Perigon, which can include research, trading and
rebalancing, and administrative services such as Client account paperwork, Client billing, performance reporting,
and investment due diligence. Perigon may not utilize all services offered by the TAMP; to the extent services are
used, Perigon does not financially benefit from these services. TAMPs typically rebalance Client portfolios
according to the specified model or asset allocation selected by Perigon or according to the TAMP’s models.
TAMPs are not responsible for the analysis of Perigon’s Clients’ financial situations, suitability requirements, asset
allocations, or investment restrictions.
SEI Investments Management Corporation – Certain Perigon IARs recommend and refer Clients to SEI
Investments Management Corporation (“SIMC”), an unaffiliated investment advisor registered with the SEC.
These IARs’ recommendations and referrals of SIMC are at the IARs’ or Clients’ request. Through this
arrangement, the Client will enter into an advisory agreement with SIMC, and Perigon will assist and advise the
Client in establishing investment objectives and developing an investment strategy to meet those objectives by
identifying appropriate investments and monitoring such investments. In consideration for such services, SIMC
receives an investment advisory fee billed according to the fee schedule the Client establishes with SIMC.
Additionally, in these instances, Perigon receives a portion of the investment advisory fee for the solicitation and
referral of the Client to SIMC and may assist the Client with completing their account opening paperwork. Perigon
may also assist in the development of the initial policy recommendations and managing the ongoing relationship.
Prior to entering into an agreement with SIMC, Perigon will provide the client with SIMC’s Form ADV Part 2A (or
a brochure that contains the appropriate disclosures) as required by law.

LPL Financial, LLC Sponsored Advisory Programs – Perigon provides advisory services for some clients through
programs sponsored by LPL Financial, LLC (“LPL”), a registered investment advisor and broker-dealer (CRD#
6413). LPL charges fees for these sponsored programs that are in addition to Perigon’s advisory fees. Below is a
brief description of each LPL advisory program used by the Advisor. For more information regarding the LPL
programs, including information on the advisory services and fees that apply, the types of investments available
in the programs, and the conflicts of interest presented by the programs, please refer to the applicable LPL
program client account packet.
● Manager Access Select Program (“MAS”) – Manager Access Select offers Clients access to the
investment advisory services of professional portfolio management firms for the individual management
of Client accounts. The Advisor assists the Client in identifying a third-party portfolio manager (“Portfolio
Manager”) from a list of Portfolio Managers made available by LPL. The Portfolio Manager manages
Clients’ assets on a discretionary basis. The Advisor will provide initial and ongoing assistance regarding
the Portfolio Manager selection process. LPL requires a minimum account value of $50,000 for Manager
Access Select; however, in certain instances, the minimum account size may be lower or higher.
● Model Wealth Portfolios Program (“MWP”) – MWP offers Clients a professionally managed mutual fund
asset allocation program. The Advisor obtains the necessary financial data from the Client, assists the
Client in determining the suitability of the MWP program, and assists the Client in setting an appropriate
investment objective. The Advisor initiates the steps necessary to open an MWP account and have the
discretion to select a model portfolio designed by LPL’s Research Department consistent with the Client’s
stated investment objective. LPL’s Research Department or a third-party portfolio strategist act as the
portfolio strategist responsible for selecting the mutual funds or ETFs within a model portfolio and for
making changes to the mutual funds or ETFs selected. The Client authorizes LPL to act on a discretionary
basis to purchase and sell mutual funds and ETFs and to liquidate previously purchased securities. The
Client will also authorize LPL to effect rebalancing for MWP accounts. MWP requires a minimum asset
value for a program account to be managed. The minimums vary depending on the portfolio selected and
the account’s allocation amongst portfolios. The lowest minimum for a portfolio is $10,000.
All Client assets will be managed within the designated account at the Custodian, pursuant to the terms of the
advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 – Brokerage Practices for more information.
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,
which are laws governing retirement accounts. When deemed to be in the Client’s best interest, the Advisor will
provide investment advice to the 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 earns a new (or
increases 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.
Participant Account Management – As part of the Advisor’s investment management services, when appropriate,
the Advisor will use a third-party platform to facilitate the management of held-away assets, such as defined
contribution plan participant accounts, with investment discretion. The platform allows the Advisor to avoid being
considered to have custody of Client funds since the Advisor does not have direct access to Client log-in
credentials to affect trades. Perigon is not affiliated with the platform in any way and receives no compensation
from them for using their platform. A link will be provided to the Client, allowing the Client to connect accounts to
the platform. Once the Client’s account is connected to the platform, the Advisor reviews the current account
allocations. When deemed necessary and appropriate, the Advisor rebalances the account considering the
Client’s investment goals and risk tolerance; any change in allocations also considers current economic and
market trends. The goal is to improve account performance over time, minimize loss during difficult markets, and
manage internal fees that can limit account performance. Client accounts in this program are be reviewed at least
quarterly, and allocation changes will be made as deemed necessary.

Sub-Advisor Services. - The Advisor serves as a sub-advisor for registered investment advisors, providing
construction, research, decision-making, trading, and rebalancing for the assets designated to the Advisor and
determined to be suitable by the advisor. Additionally, the Advisor provides operational support and a
technology platform to enhance the execution of key business functions.
Non-Purpose Loans – Perigon at times introduces certain Clients to a Pledged Asset Line®, a non-purpose
revolving line of credit made available through Charles Schwab Bank, a subsidiary of The Charles Schwab
Corporation, secured by eligible assets held in an account maintained at the Custodian. (“Lending Program”). In
such instances, the Client’s assets in their account at the Custodian will be utilized as collateral for a non-purpose
revolving line of credit. The recommendation of a Lending Program presents a conflict of interest as the Advisor
will continue to receive investment advisory fees for managing the collateralized assets in the Client’s account.
Clients are not obligated to engage the Advisor for the Lending Program. For additional information related to the
risks involved in non-purpose loans and lines of credit, please see Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment
Strategies, and Risk of Loss.
The Advisor at times also introduces relevant Clients to Goldman Sachs Private Bank Select, a non-purpose loan
program made available through Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Lending Program”). In such instances, the Client’s
assets in their account at the Custodian are utilized as collateral for a non-purpose loan. The recommendation of
a Lending Program presents a conflict of interest as the Advisor will continue to receive investment advisory fees
for managing the collateralized assets in the Client’s account. Clients are not obligated to engage the Advisor for
the Lending Program. For additional information related to the risks involved non-purpose loans and lines of credit,
please see Item 8 - Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss.
Digital Assets – In relevant situations, the Advisor assists interested Clients with establishing a digital currency
account through Fidelity Digital Asset Services, LLC (“FDAS”), a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments. FDAS is a
platform for digital assets, which the Advisor offers as a possible portfolio management diversification strategy for
Clients who express an interest in exposure to digital assets. Clients in such situations establish a Digital Asset
account and transfer funds into an account opened on the FDAS platform.
Financial Planning and Concierge Services – Perigon offers a variety of financial planning and consulting services
to relevant clients needing specialized or non-standard advice through a written financial planning agreement
which outlines the services to be performed. Services can be offered in relation to a variety of a Client’s financial
situation, depending on their 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. Perigon may also refer Clients to an accountant, attorney, or other specialist as appropriate given their
unique situation.
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.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
In some situations, Perigon provides retirement plan advisory services on behalf of the 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:
● Vendor Analysis
● Plan Participant Enrollment and Education Tracking

Investment Management Services (ERISA 3(38))
●
●
●
● Performance Reporting
● Ongoing Investment Recommendations and Assistance
● ERISA 404(c) Assistance
These services are provided by Perigon serving in the capacity of 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 Perigon’s fiduciary status, the specific services to be rendered,
and all direct and indirect compensation the Advisor reasonably expects under the engagement.
Sub-Advisory Management Services
Perigon also acts at times as a sub-advisor to unaffiliated third-party investment advisors (the "Primary Investment
Advisor"), whereby such third parties engage Perigon for the purpose of managing all or a portion of the unaffiliated
advisor's client assets ("outside accounts"). The third-party advisor remains the Primary Investment Advisor for
its client accounts. Under such arrangements, Perigon provides discretionary asset management services, where
the management services provided to the outside accounts are based upon established model portfolios or
strategies that correlate to specific investment objectives and risk tolerance levels.
The model portfolio allocations will be constructed and maintained to provide investment objective-driven
management services to investors. The Primary Investment Advisor will communicate with and assist their clients
('the investor") in selecting the appropriate model based on information provided to the Primary Investment
Advisor. Perigon will monitor the investments contained in the outside accounts in order to provide ongoing
supervision as to changes in the investments and/or allocations of such investments, which are necessary to
adhere to the desired investment objective.
Subject to any written guidelines that the investor may provide, Perigon will be granted discretion and authority to
manage the outside accounts. Accordingly, the Advisor is authorized to perform various functions at the investor's
expense without further approval from the investor. Such functions include the determination of the type and
amount of securities to be purchased and/or sold. Perigon provides continuous supervision and rebalancing of
the outside account portfolios as changes in market conditions occur.
The Primary Investment Advisor will be responsible for determining the initial and ongoing suitability of any of
Perigon’s portfolios in which to place the investor’s assets. Perigon manages the outside accounts in accordance
with the chosen portfolio’s stated objectives and will not be responsible for determining the suitability of any chosen
strategy/portfolio.
C. Client Account Management
Prior to engaging Perigon 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.
D. Wrap Fee Programs
For certain legacy Client relationships, or where otherwise in the best interest of clients, Perigon recommends
that clients participate in a wrap fee program in which most fees, including securities transaction fees, securities
transaction fees for certain mutual funds, custody fees, commission fees, admin fees, redemption fees, trade away
fees, certain program or platform fees for unaffiliated investment managers or investment platforms and other fees
and expenses (herein “Covered Costs”) are included with its investment advisory fees. Including these fees into
a single asset-based fee is considered a “Wrap Fee Program.” Perigon sponsors the Perigon Wrap Fee Program
for use in such situations. Whether participation in a Wrap Fee Program is right for a particular client is determined
based upon a holistic review of the client’s individual and overall circumstances and needs. Depending on the

fees than if the Client was not participating in a wrap fee program. Please see Appendix 1 – Wrap Fee Program
Brochure, which is a separate supplement to this Disclosure Brochure.
E. Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2024, Perigon managed $8,714,418,958 in Client assets, $7,526,750,660 of which are
managed on a discretionary basis and $1,187,668,298 of which are managed on a non-discretionary basis.
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
The following paragraphs detail the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the
Advisor. Each client who works with Perigon enters into an investment management agreement with Perigon
which outlines the specific terms of their relationship with Perigon, including the fees that they pay.
A. Fees for Advisory Services
Wealth Management Services / Standalone Investment Management Services
Wealth management and standalone investment management (“Advisory”) fees are paid quarterly in advance of
each calendar quarter pursuant to the terms of the advisory agreement each client signs with the firm. Advisory
fees are based on the market value of assets under management at the end of the prior quarter. Advisory fees
range from 0.20% to 2.00% annually. Perigon has multiple tiered and non-tiered fee schedules that fall within this
range of fees. Advisory fees are based on several factors, including the complexity of the services to be provided,
the level of assets to be managed, and the overall relationship with the Advisor. Fees charged are generally
negotiated directly by the advisor and client and discounts or specific agreements may be reached to address
specific client situations. Different clients receiving similar services may pay different fees for a variety of reasons,
including complexities associated with individual situations.
For Client accounts held with the custodian, SEI Private Trust Company, a subsidiary of SEI Investments
Company (“SPTC”), Advisory fees are paid quarterly at the end of each calendar quarter based on the market
value of assets under management at the end of the quarter.
The Advisory fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the inception date of the account to the end of the
first quarter. Fees are negotiable. The Client’s fees will take into consideration the aggregate assets under
management with the Advisor. All securities held in accounts managed by Perigon will be independently valued
by the Custodian or through relevant third parties. Perigon conducts periodic reviews of the Custodian’s valuations
to help ensure accurate billing.
The Client can make additions or withdrawals from their account at any time, subject to the Advisor’s right to
terminate an account or the overall relationship. Additions can be in cash or securities, provided that the Advisor
reserves the right to liquidate any transferred securities or decline to accept particular securities into a Client’s
account. Clients can withdraw account assets on notice to Perigon, subject to the usual and customary securities
settlement procedures. However, the Advisor designs its investment portfolios as long-term investments, and the
withdrawal of assets can impair the ability of a Client to meet their investment objectives. Perigon can consult with
the Client about certain implications of such transactions. Clients are advised that when such securities are
liquidated, they might be subject to securities transaction fees, short-term redemption fees, and/or tax
ramifications.
The Advisor’s fee is exclusive of, and in addition to, brokerage fees, transaction fees, and other related costs and
expenses that may be incurred by the Client unless otherwise agreed to in writing. Perigon does not receive any
portion of these commissions, fees, and costs. Assets managed under a Wrap Fee Program are charged fees
that are inclusive of Covered Costs as outlined in Perigon’s Wrap Fee Brochure. For more information on
brokerage and other transaction cost incurred in Perigon accounts, please see Item 12 of this Brochure.
Use of Independent Managers, TAMPs and/or Sub-Advisors

www.perigonwealth.com
As noted in Item 4, Perigon will at times implement all or a portion of a Client’s investment portfolio utilizing one
or more Independent Managers. To eliminate any conflict of interest, Perigon does not earn any compensation
from such Independent Managers. Perigon earns its investment advisory fee as described above. Independent
Managers typically do not offer discounts but may have a breakpoint schedule that will reduce the fee with an
increased level of assets placed under management with an Independent Manager. The terms of such fee
arrangements are included in the Independent Manager’s disclosure brochure and applicable contracts between
the client and the Independent Manager.
As is also noted in Item 4, the Advisor periodically recommends and refers Clients to a Sub-Advisor or TAMP. For
Client accounts that are managed by a Sub-Advisor or TAMP, the Client’s fee will be deducted from the Client’s
accounts by the Sub-Advisor, TAMP, or Advisor consistent with the fee schedule above. The Advisor does not
earn any compensation from Sub-Advisors/TAMPs and will only earn its investment advisory fee as described
above.
Additionally, as noted in Item 4, Perigon periodically recommends and refers Clients to SIMC. For Clients’
accounts managed by SIMC, the Client’s fees are deducted from the Clients’ account by SIMC as detailed in the
separate agreement between the Client and SIMC. A portion of the investment advisory fee is provided to Perigon.
LPL Advisory Program Fees
LPL serves as a program sponsor, investment advisor, and broker-dealer for the LPL advisory programs. The
Advisor and LPL share in the account fee and other fees associated with LPL’s advisory program accounts.
Account fees are payable quarterly in advance of each quarter and are in addition to the fees charged by Perigon.
The account fee charged to the Client for each LPL advisory program is negotiable, subject to the following
maximum account fees:
LPL Advisory Program Maximum Account Fee
MAS
MWP
2.50%
2.65%**
** The MWP account fee consists of an LPL program fee, a strategist fee (if applicable),
and an Advisor fee of up to 2.00%. Accounts remaining under the legacy fee structure
may be charged one aggregate account fee, for which the maximum account fee is 2.50%.
Clients should refer to the LPL MWP program brochure for more information.
Standalone Financial Planning Services
Project-Based – Perigon offers standalone, project-based financial planning services either on an hourly basis or
a fixed fee. Hourly engagements typically range from $150 to $500. Fixed engagement fees typically range from
$1,000 to $15,000. Fees are generally negotiable based on the nature and complexity of the services to be
provided and the overall relationship with the Advisor.
Ongoing Services – Perigon offers standalone financial planning services for a fixed fee, generally up to $15,000
annually. Fees are generally negotiable based on the nature and complexity of the services provided and the
overall relationship with the Advisor. The financial planning fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the
inception date of the agreement to the end of the first quarter.
All such fees will be clearly outlined in an agreement between Perigon and the Clients.
Consulting and Concierge Services
Perigon offers standalone consulting and concierge services either on an hourly basis or for a fixed fee. Hourly
engagements generally range from $150 to $500. Fixed engagement fees generally range from $1,000 to $15,000.
Fees are often negotiable based on the nature and complexity of the services provided and the overall relationship
with the Advisor. All such fees will be clearly outlined in an agreement between Perigon and clients.

Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Fees for retirement plan advisory services are charged an annual asset-based fee of up to 2.00% and are billed
quarterly in advance of or at the end of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the terms of the retirement plan advisory
agreement. Retirement plan fees are based on the market value of assets under management at the end of the
prior quarter. Fees are generally negotiable depending on the size and complexity of the Plan.
B. Fee Billing
Wealth Management / Investment Management Services
Advisory fees are calculated by Perigon (or its delegate) and deducted from the Client’s account at the Custodian.
The amount due is calculated by applying the quarterly rate (annual rate divided by the number of days in the year
multiplied by the number of days in the quarter) to the total assets under management with Perigon at the end of
the prior quarter.
For Client assets held with SPTC, SPTC calculates and deducts the Advisor’s fee from the Client’s accounts. The
amount due is calculated based on the following formula: (Quarter-End Value X Advisory Fee) / 4.
For Client assets held with LPL as the Custodian, LPL calculates and deducts the Advisor’s fee from the Client’s
accounts. The amount due is calculated based on the following formula: (Quarter-End Value X Advisory Fee) /
360) X 90 days.
Use of Independent Managers
For Client accounts implemented through an Independent Manager, the Client’s overall fees include Perigon’s
investment management fee (as noted above) plus investment management fees and/or platform fees charged
by the Independent Manager, as applicable. In certain instances, the Independent Manager or the Advisor
assumes responsibility for calculating the Client’s fees and deducting all fees from the Client’s account as outlined
in the relevant agreement.
For Client accounts implemented through a Sub-Advisor or TAMP, the Client’s investment advisory fee will be
deducted by the Sub-Advisor, TAMP, or the Advisor as outlined in the relevant agreement.
For Client accounts implemented with SIMC, the Client’s investment advisory fee will be deducted by SIMC. SIMC
assumes responsibility for calculating and deducting the Clients’ fees from the Clients’ account as outlined in the
relevant agreement.
Clients will be provided with a statement, at least quarterly, from the relevant Custodian reflecting the deduction
of the Advisory fee. It is the responsibility of the Client to verify the accuracy of these fees as listed on the
Custodian’s brokerage statement. Clients provide written authorization permitting Advisory fees to be deducted
by Perigon to be paid directly from their account held by the Custodian as part of the advisory agreement and
separate account forms provided by the Custodian.
With respect to unaffiliated non-custodial partnership/private fund investments, which are not held at the
Custodian, the Client is required to complete the applicable private placement and/or account opening documents
to establish these investments. The Advisor debits its fee for providing investment advisory services with respect
to these relationships directly from an account designated by the Client held at the Custodian and/or as otherwise
articulated in those agreements. For certain non-custodial partnership/private fund investments, Perigon might
not receive quarter-end investment valuations prior to its fee billing calculation. In such instances, the Advisor will
use the most recent month-end or quarter-end valuation available for the calculation of investment advisory fees
and/or other mechanisms to assess valuations in a manner that Perigon reasonably believes is in the best interest
of the client. The Advisor will recalculate its fee upon receipt of final valuations where appropriate. Any adjustments
are reflected in the fee calculations for the next quarterly period after the Advisor’s receipt of the final valuations,
which can take 90-120 days, depending on the investments’ record keeper.

Financial Planning Services
Project-Based – Financial planning fees will be invoiced up to fifty percent (50%) of the expected total fee upon
execution of the financial planning agreement, as outlined in each relevant agreement. The balance is invoiced
upon completion of the agreed-upon deliverables. Such fees and other terms can be negotiated as appropriate
in individual situations.
Ongoing Services – Financial planning fees are billed quarterly in advance of each calendar quarter. Financial
planning fees are either invoiced directly or deducted from a Client’s designated account at the Custodian,
pursuant to the terms of the financial planning agreement. Such fees and other terms can be negotiated as
appropriate in individual situations.
Consulting and Concierge Services
Project-Based – Consulting and concierge fees are invoiced up to fifty percent (50%) of the expected total fee
upon execution of the consulting and concierge agreement, as outlined in such agreements. The balance is
invoiced upon completion of the agreed-upon deliverables. Such fees and other terms can be negotiated as
appropriate in individual situations.
Ongoing Services – Consulting and concierge fees are billed quarterly in advance of each calendar quarter.
Consulting and concierge fees are either invoiced directly or deducted from a Client’s designated account at the
Custodian, pursuant to the terms of the consulting and concierge agreement. Such fees and other terms can be
negotiated as appropriate in individual situations.
Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Retirement plan advisory fees can 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. Such fees and other terms can be
negotiated as appropriate in individual situations.
C. Other Fees and Expenses
Clients can incur certain fees or charges imposed by third parties, other than Perigon, in connection with
investments made on behalf of the Client in their account. The Client is responsible for all custody and securities
execution fees charged by the Custodian, as applicable, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Certain recommended
Custodians do not charge securities transaction fees for ETF and equity trades in a Client's account, provided that
the account meets the terms and conditions of the Custodian's brokerage requirements. However, Custodians
typically charge for mutual funds and other types of investments. The fees charged by Perigon are separate and
distinct from these custody and execution fees.
For Clients in Perigon’s Wrap Fee Program, Perigon includes Covered Costs as part of its overall investment
advisory fee through the Perigon Wrap Fee Program as outlined in the Perigon Wrap Fee Brochure. 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.
As mentioned in Item 4.B. above, the Client might be invested into share classes of a mutual fund that have a
higher expense ratio than a different share class, including but not limited to 12b-1 fees. This may result in Clients
paying higher expense ratios. For a complete discussion of expenses related to each mutual fund, please read a
copy of the prospectus issued by that particular fund.
All fees paid to Perigon for investment advisory 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 Perigon but would not receive
the services provided by Perigon, 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 funds and the fees charged by Perigon 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 / Investment Management Services
Perigon is often compensated for its Advisory services in advance of the quarter in which services are rendered,
as noted above. Either party can terminate the Advisory management agreement at any time by providing advance
written notice to the other party as outlined in the relevant agreement between Perigon and the Client. For
accounts terminated during a billing period, the Client will incur charges for Advisory services rendered to the point
of termination. The Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid Advisory fees from the effective date of termination
to the end of the quarter.
Use of Independent Managers
In the event that the Advisor has determined that an Independent Manager is no longer in the Client’s best interest
or a Client wishes to terminate their relationship with the Independent Manager, the terms for the termination will
be set forth in the respective agreements between the Client or the Advisor and the Independent Manager. Perigon
will assist the Client with the termination and transition as appropriate.
In the event that the Advisor has determined that a Sub-Advisor/TAMP is no longer in the Client’s best interest,
the terms for the termination will be set forth in the respective agreements between the Sub-Advisor or TAMP and
the Client or the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor/TAMP.
In the event that the Client wishes to terminate their relationship with SIMC or if Perigon determines SIMC is no
longer in the Client’s best interest, Perigon will either assist the Client in transitioning their assets to another
unaffiliated registered investment advisor or the terms for the termination are set forth in the respective agreement
between the Client and SIMC.
In the above cases, refunds for prepaid fees (if any) will be processed in the manner outlined in the relevant
agreements between these parties and Perigon’s clients.
Financial Planning Services
Perigon generally requires an advance deposit, as described above, for financial planning services engagements.
Either party is permitted to terminate the financial planning agreements by providing written notice to the other
party as outlined in the agreement between the parties. The Client will incur charges for advisory services rendered
to the point of termination, and such fees will be due and payable by the Client. Upon termination, the Client will
be billed for actual hours logged on the planning project times the contractual hourly rate, or in the case of a fixed
fee engagement, the percentage of the engagement scope completed by Perigon. Perigon will refund any
unearned, prepaid planning fees from the effective date of termination.
Consulting and Concierge Services
Perigon generally requires an advance deposit, as described above. Either party is permitted to terminate the
consulting and concierge agreement by providing written notice to the other party as outlined in the agreement
between the parties. The Client will incur charges for advisory services rendered to the point of termination, and
such fees will be due and payable by the Client. Upon termination, the Client will be billed for actual hours logged
on the consulting project times the contractual hourly rate. The Advisor will refund any unearned, prepaid
consulting and concierge fees from the effective date of termination.

Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Perigon is compensated for its retirement plan advisory services in advance of or at the end of the quarter in which
services are rendered, as outlined in the relevant agreement between the parties. Either party may request to
terminate the retirement plan advisory agreement at any time by providing written notice to the other party as
outlined in the agreement between the parties. The Client will be responsible for retirement plan advisory fees up
to and including the effective date of termination. Perigon will refund any unearned, prepaid retirement plan
advisory fees from the effective date of termination to the end of the quarter.
E. Compensation for Sales of Securities
Broker-Dealer Affiliation
Certain Advisory Persons of Perigon are also registered representatives of Purshe Kaplan Sterling Investments,
Inc. (“PKS” CRD# 35747) or Fortune Financial Services, Inc. (“Fortune Financial” CRD# 42150). PKS and Fortune
Financial are registered broker-dealers and members of FINRA and SIPC. In their separate capacity as a
registered representative of PKS or Fortune Financial, Advisory Persons may implement securities transactions
under PKS or Fortune Financial and not through Perigon. In such instances, Advisory Persons may accept
compensation for the sale of securities or other investment products, including 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 Advisory Persons in their capacity as registered representatives of such firms
is separate and in addition to the Advisor’s fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest and gives such
advisors an incentive to recommend investment products based on the compensation received, rather than on
the client’s needs. Clients are not obligated to implement any recommendation provided by the Advisor or its
Advisory Persons, and clients have the option to purchase investment products that advisors recommend through
other brokers or agents that are not affiliated with Perigon. As part of Perigon’s general approach to address such
conflicts, neither the Advisor nor Advisory Persons earn ongoing investment advisory fees in connection with any
products or services implemented in an Advisory Person’s separate capacity as a registered representative.
Please see Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations.
Insurance Agency Affiliations
Certain Advisory Persons are also licensed insurance professionals. As an independent insurance professional,
the Advisory Person will earn commission-based compensation for selling insurance products, including insurance
products they sell to Clients. Insurance commissions earned by Advisory persons are separate and in addition to
Perigon’s advisory fees. This practice presents a conflict of interest because the person providing investment
advice on behalf of the Advisor, who is also an insurance agent, has an incentive to recommend insurance
products to Clients for the purpose of generating commissions rather than solely based on Clients’ needs.
However, Clients are under no obligation, contractually or otherwise, to purchase insurance products through any
Advisory Person affiliated with Perigon. Please see Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations.
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Perigon does not charge performance-based fees. Given this, Perigon does not manage both accounts that are
charged a performance-based fee and accounts that are charged another type of fee at the same time (or engage
in side-by-side management).
Item 7 – Types of Clients
Perigon offers investment advisory services to individuals, high-net-worth individuals, trusts, estates, businesses,
charitable organizations, retirement plans, and banking or thrift institutions. Perigon generally does not impose a
minimum relationship size. Certain Independent Managers may impose a minimum account size to effectively
implement its investment process.

www.perigonwealth.com
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of Loss
A. Methods of Analysis
Perigon employs fundamental, technical, cyclical, and charting analysis in developing investment strategies for its
Clients. Research and analysis from Perigon are derived from numerous sources, including financial media
companies, third-party research materials, Internet sources, and reviews 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. These criteria
generally consist 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 Perigon will be able to accurately predict such
a recurrence.
Cyclical analysis is similar to technical analysis in that it involves the analysis of market conditions at a macro
(entire market/economy) or micro (company specific) level rather than the overall fundamental analysis of the
health of the particular company that Perigon is recommending. The risks with cyclical analysis are similar to those
of technical analysis.
Charting analysis utilizes various market indicators as investment selection criteria. These criteria are generally
pricing trends that may indicate movement in the markets. 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 technical and charting analysis may lose value and may
have negative investment performance. The Advisor monitors these market indicators to determine if adjustments
to strategic allocations are appropriate.
As noted above, Perigon generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its Clients as consistent with their
financial goals. Perigon 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, Perigon 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.
Perigon at times uses artificial intelligence tools to assist in various administrative tasks related to account
management, such as creating task lists for accounts, and to assist in and augment investment research and
analysis. Human oversight remains a key component of all advisory services, with final decisions made by our
IARs and internal experienced professionals, while sources and output is validated, prior to any use. While AI
tools help improve efficiency and decision-making, they are not infallible and are subject to limitations, including
potential data inaccuracies or model risks, which is mitigated through our internal validation efforts. We prioritize
data security and privacy in line with applicable laws and our Privacy Policy, where we will never input client
sensitive information in any AI platform. .

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. Perigon 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 and investing in securities inherently involves risk of loss that clients should
be prepared to bear. 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.
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. The Advisor relies 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.
Material risks associated with a particular strategy are discussed with a Client in advance of investing in the
Client’s 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 Perigon’s investment approach, including
risks associated with each significant investment strategy or method of analysis we use:
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 ETFs
Bond ETFs 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 increases
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
Perigon Wealth Management, LLC

Page 17
www.perigonwealth.com
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.
Options Contracts
Investments in options contracts have the risk of losing value in a relatively short period of time. Options contracts
are leveraged instruments that allow the holder of a single contract to control many shares of an underlying stock.
This leverage can compound gains or losses.
Margin Borrowings
The use of short-term margin borrowings may result in certain additional risks to a Client. For example, if securities
pledged to brokers to secure a Client's margin accounts decline in value, the Client could be subject to a "margin
call," pursuant to which it must either deposit additional funds with the broker or be the subject of mandatory
liquidation of the pledged securities to compensate for the decline in value.
Non-Purpose Loans and Lines of Credit
Non-purpose loans and lines of credit carry a number of risks, including but not limited to the risk of a market
downturn, tax implications if collateralized securities are liquidated, and an increase in interest rates. A decline in
the market value of collateralized securities held in the account[s] at the Custodian may result in a reduction in
the draw amount of the Client’s line of credit, a demand from the Lending Program that the Client deposit additional
funds or securities in the Client’s collateral account[s], or a forced sale of securities in the Client’s collateral
account[s].
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
and investments that may carry higher risks. Valuation of such investments can be more challenging than in other
types of holdings. Clients should only have a portion of their assets in these investments.
Risks That Apply Primarily to ESG Strategies
Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) investing may include additional risks. For example, ESG or
sustainable investing strategies, including ESG mutual funds and ETFs (“ESG Strategies”), may limit the types
and number of investment opportunities and, as a result, could underperform other strategies that do not have an
ESG or sustainable focus. ESG Strategies may invest in securities or industry sectors that underperform the
market as a whole or underperform other strategies screened for ESG standards. ESG Strategies can be more
concentrated in particular industries or sectors that share common characteristics and are often subject to similar
business risks and regulatory burdens. Because investing on the basis of sustainability/ESG criteria can involve
qualitative and subjective analysis, there can be no assurance that the methodology utilized by, or determinations
made by, an investment manager will align with the beliefs or values of the client.
ESG Strategies can follow different approaches to ESG investing. For example, some ESG Strategies select
companies based on positive ESG characteristics, while others may apply negative screens in order to exclude
certain investments. Such investment strategies may also offer the ability to exclude particular sectors or industries
from a portfolio. Restrictions and exclusions can affect the investment manager’s ability to make investments or
take advantage of opportunities that may be available to clients who do not choose similar restrictions, and, as a
result, investment performance could suffer. Issuer screening aims to screen companies (issuers) with revenue
derived from the restricted category selected by the client, but it does not exclude all companies with any tie or
revenue derived from such restricted category. Additionally, issuer screening is performed by a third-party
provider, such as MSCI, Inc. (“MSCI”) or a third-party investment manager, and Perigon does not independently
verify or guarantee the accuracy of it. Accordingly, it is possible for the client’s portfolio to hold investments in
companies that derive some revenue from a restricted category. Any faith-based restrictions may exclude multiple
categories selected by a third-party provider generally based on the values and norms of such groups; however,
such restrictions may not completely represent or fully align with the client’s values or religious beliefs.

ESG or sustainable investing is not a uniformly defined concept, and scores or ratings may vary across data
providers that use similar or different screens based on their process for identifying ESG issuers. The companies
selected, as demonstrating positive ESG characteristics, may not be the same companies selected by other
investment managers that use similar ESG screens or methodologies. In addition, the companies selected might
not exhibit positive or favorable ESG characteristics. ESG investing practices differ by asset class, country, region,
and industry and are constantly evolving. Additionally, a company’s ESG practices and the Advisor’s assessment
of such practices can change over time.
Digital Assets
Digital Assets and the use of virtual currencies to buy and sell goods and services are relatively new and rapidly
evolving concepts. Once a transaction is recorded, that transaction is theoretically immutable and cannot be
reversed due to the cryptographic nature of the recordkeeping and the decentralized nature of the network.
Additionally, the growth of Digital Assets, in general, is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The factors affecting
their further development include (i) their continued worldwide growth, adoption, and use; (ii) government and
quasi-government regulation of the use, creation, and offering of Digital Assets, as well as restrictions on and
regulation related to the operation of and access to a Digital Asset’s network; (iii) changes in consumer
demographics and public tastes and preferences; (iv) the maintenance and development of the open-source
software protocol of a Digital Asset’s network; (v) the availability and popularity of other forms or methods of
buying and selling goods and services, including new means of using Digital Assets; and (vi) general economic
conditions and the regulatory environment relating to Digital Assets. If Digital Assets were deemed “centralized”
and found to be securities, they may not be easily transferred and may lose their value due to an inability to
transfer such Digital Assets unless any transfer is in compliance with applicable securities law exemptions.
The price of Digital Assets is affected by many factors, including, but not limited to, global supply and demand,
the expected future prices, inflation expectations, interest rates, currency exchange rates, fiat currency withdrawal,
and deposit policies at cryptocurrency exchanges, interruptions in service or failures of major cryptocurrency
exchanges, investment and trading activities of large investors, monetary policies of governments, regulatory
measures that restrict the use of cryptocurrencies, global political, economic, or financial events. Pricing also
might be influenced by efforts at market manipulation by certain participants. Drastic or even gradual changes in
the price of cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency derivatives could materially affect the value of the Client’s Digital
Assets.
Private Collective Investment Vehicle Risks
The Advisor recommends that certain clients invest in privately placed collective investment vehicles (e.g., hedge
funds, private equity funds, etc.). The managers of these vehicles have broad discretion in selecting the
investments. There are few limitations on the types of securities or other financial instruments that may be traded,
and there is no requirement to diversify. Hedge funds may trade on margin or otherwise leverage positions,
thereby potentially increasing the risk to the vehicle. In addition, because the vehicles are not registered as
investment companies, they are much less regulated than investment companies. There are numerous other risks
in investing in these securities. Clients should consult each fund’s private placement memorandum and/or other
documents explaining such risks prior to investing.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
There are no legal, regulatory, or disciplinary events involving Perigon or its management persons that Perigon
deems material to a client’s or prospective client’s evaluation of our advisory business or the integrity of our
management. Perigon values the trust Clients place in our firm and our advisors. Perigon encourages Clients to
perform the requisite due diligence on any advisor or service provider that the Client engages. The backgrounds
of the Advisor and its 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# 131037.

Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Broker-Dealer and Insurance Affiliations
As noted in Item 5, certain Advisory Persons of Perigon are also registered representatives of PKS (CRD# 35747)
or Fortune Financial (CRD# 42150). PKS and Fortune Financial are registered broker-dealers and members of
FINRA/SIPC. Additionally, as also discussed in Item 5, certain Advisory Persons are also licensed insurance
professionals who may receive commissions or other related revenues from the various insurance companies
whose products are sold. Please see Item 5 for more information.
Tax and Accounting Services
Certain Advisory Persons also serve as Tax Practitioners and Accountants and provide tax, accounting, and
related services in their separate capacities. Perigon refers relevant Clients to utilize the tax and accounting
services provided by these Advisory Persons. At Perigon’s sole discretion, the Advisor will include a Client’s tax
preparation fee as a component of their advisory services. Clients are advised that these services are separate
and distinct from the advisory services offered by Perigon and that the receipt of additional compensation by
Advisory Persons poses a conflict of interest. Clients are not required to engage Advisory Persons for tax and
accounting services in order to maintain a relationship with Perigon.
BCo Venture Fund I, LP
The Advisor may recommend, when in the Client’s best interests, that the Client invests in the BCo Venture Fund
I, LP (herein “BCo Venture”), a private equity fund. Certain Advisory Persons of Perigon, in their separate
capacities, have ownership interests in BCo Venture and serve as the investment advisor to BCo Venture. As a
result, these Advisory Persons stand to benefit financially from additional investments made into BCo Venture
and from returns generated by BCo Venture. These Advisory Persons who are individual owners of BCo Venture
would benefit financially in their individual capacities if Perigon invests Client funds into BCo Venture. As a result,
these Advisory Persons have an incentive to invest Clients’ funds into BCo Venture. Perigon notes that private
placements give rise to potential conflicts of interest. To mitigate any potential conflicts of interest, Perigon has
adopted compliance policies and procedures requiring Supervised Persons at all times to put the interest of Clients
first as part of the Advisor’s fiduciary duty, including, but not limited to, disclosing the existence of all material
conflicts of interest, conducting the appropriate due diligence to ensure any recommendation aligns with the
Client’s investment needs and objectives, obtaining Client’s informed consent, and prohibiting Perigon and its
Supervised Persons from favoring one Client over another. Furthermore, neither Perigon nor its Advisory Persons
will receive any additional compensation for investing Client funds into BCo Venture. In addition, there is no
requirement for Perigon to recommend BCo Venture to Clients, nor are Clients obligated to invest in BCo Venture.
LPL-Sponsored Advisory Programs
The Advisor receives compensation as a result of a Client’s participation in an LPL-sponsored advisory program.
Depending on, among other things, the type and size of the account, the type of securities held in the account,
changes in its value over time, the ability to negotiate fees or commissions, the historical or expected size or the
number of transactions, and the number and range of supplementary advisory and Client-related services
provided to the Client, the amount of this compensation may be more or less than what the Advisor would receive
if the Client participated in other programs, whether through LPL or another sponsor, or paid separately for
investment advice, brokerage, and other services.
Clients should consider the level and complexity of the advisory services to be provided when negotiating the
account fee (or the advisor fee portion of the account fee, as applicable) with the Advisor. With regard to accounts
utilizing third-party portfolio managers under aggregate, all-in-one account fee structures (including MAS and the
legacy MWP fee structure), because the portion of the account fee retained by the Advisor varies depending on
the portfolio strategist fee associated with a portfolio, the Advisor has a financial incentive to select one portfolio
instead of another portfolio. Clients should refer to the relevant LPL Form ADV program brochure for a more
detailed discussion of conflicts of interest.

Prior to recommending an LPL advisory program, the Advisor will conduct appropriate due diligence to ensure the
recommendation of an LPL advisory program aligns with the Client’s investment needs and objectives. In addition,
the Advisor will provide additional disclosure information to each Client regarding material financial interests and
compensation as it relates to LPL advisory program accounts. Finally, there is no requirement for Perigon to
recommend LPL advisory program accounts to Clients, nor are Clients obligated to participate in an LPL advisory
program.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions, and Personal Trading
A. Code of Ethics
Pursuant to SEC Rule 204A-1, Perigon has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines the Advisor’s
fiduciary commitment to each Client and outlines rules which its advisors and employees must abide by. This
Code applies to all persons associated with Perigon (“Supervised Persons”). The Code was developed to provide
general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding the Advisor’s duties to the Client. Perigon and its
Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness, and good faith towards each Client. It is the obligation of
Perigon’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 Perigon at (877) 977-2555.
B. Personal Trading with Material Interest
Perigon allows Supervised Persons to purchase or sell the same securities that may be recommended to and
purchased on behalf of Clients. Perigon 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. Perigon does not have a material
interest in any securities traded in Client accounts.
C. Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
Perigon 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 Perigon requiring reporting of personal securities trades by its Supervised Persons for review by the
Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) or delegate. 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 Perigon allows its 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 afterward.
At no time will Perigon, or any Supervised Person of Perigon, transact in any security to the detriment of any
Client.

Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
A. Recommendation of Custodians
Perigon does not have discretionary authority to select the broker-dealer/custodian for custody and execution
services for individual clients. Each Client will engage a broker-dealer/custodian (herein the “Custodian”) to
safeguard Client assets and authorize Perigon to direct trades to that Custodian as agreed upon in the investment
advisory agreement. Further, Perigon does not have the discretionary authority to negotiate commissions on
behalf of Clients on a trade-by-trade basis.
While Perigon does not exercise discretion over the selection of the Custodian, it may recommend a specific
Custodian to Clients for custody and execution services. Clients are not obligated to use the Custodian
recommended by Perigon and will not incur any extra fee or cost associated with using a Custodian not
recommended by Perigon. However, Perigon can be limited in the services it can provide if the recommended
Custodian is not engaged. Perigon might recommend a specific Custodian based on criteria such as, but not
limited to, the reasonableness of commissions charged, services made available to the Client, and its reputation
and/or the location of the Custodian’s offices. As certain Advisory Persons of Perigon are registered
representatives of PKS, Perigon may be limited in using other broker-dealers/custodians for certain clients as PKS
must approve the use of any outside broker-dealer/custodian.
Perigon will generally recommend that Clients establish their accounts at Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”),
Fidelity Clearing and Custody Solutions, and related divisions and entities of Fidelity Investments, Inc., including
National Financial Services, LLC and Fidelity Brokerage Services, LLC (collectively “Fidelity”), LPL, Pershing, LLC
(“Pershing”), Axos Clearing, LLC (“Axos”), SPTC, AssetMark Brokerage, LLC (“AssetMark”), Goldman Sachs
Custody Solutions and related divisions and entities of Goldman Sachs & Co., Inc. (collectively “Goldman”), and/or
Interactive Brokers, LLC (“Interactive Brokers”). The Advisor also participates in the Zoe Wealth Platform, a
division of Zoe Financial, Inc. (“Zoe Financial”), and its current clearing firm, Apex Clearing Corporation (“Apex”).
Participants in the Zoe Financial Digital Wealth Platform must use Apex for brokerage and custodial services to
participate in the web-based portfolio management services.
Schwab, Fidelity, LPL, Pershing, Axos, SPTC, AssetMark, Interactive Brokers, Goldman, and Apex (each a
“Custodian” and collectively the “Custodians”) are FINRA-registered broker-dealers and members of SIPC and
serve as the Client’s “qualified custodian.” Perigon maintains an institutional relationship with the Custodians,
whereby the Advisor receives economic benefits.
Fidelity – Access to the Fidelity platform is provided at no charge to the Advisor. The Fidelity platform includes
brokerage, custody, administrative support, record keeping, technology, and related services designed to support
registered investment advisors like Perigon in serving Clients. These services are intended to serve the best
interests of the Advisor’s Clients. Fidelity may charge brokerage commissions (securities transaction fees) for
effecting certain securities transactions. Fidelity enables the Advisor to obtain certain no-load mutual funds without
securities transaction fees and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. Fidelity’s commission rates
are generally considered discounted from customary retail commission rates. However, the commissions and
transaction fees charged by Fidelity may be higher or lower than those charged by other custodians and broker-
dealers.
Axos – Axos may charge brokerage commissions (securities transaction fees) for effecting certain securities
transactions. Axos enables the Advisor to obtain certain no-load mutual funds without securities transaction fees
and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. Axos’ commission rates are generally considered
discounted from customary retail commission rates. However, the commissions and transaction fees charged by
Axos may be higher or lower than those charged by other custodians and broker-dealers. Please see Item 14
below for additional information.
Following are additional details regarding the brokerage practices of the Advisor:
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
Perigon Wealth Management, LLC

www.perigonwealth.com
research and other services. Perigon does not participate in soft dollar programs sponsored or offered by
any broker-dealer/custodian. However, the Advisor receives certain economic benefits from certain
Custodians. Please see Item 14.
2. Brokerage Referrals – Perigon 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 Perigon will place
trades within the established accounts at the Custodian designated by the Client. Further, all Client
accounts are traded within their respective accounts. 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 accounts).
Perigon 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.
4. Prime Brokerage – The Advisor may execute securities transactions either through the Custodian or
through another unaffiliated broker-dealer in connection with a prime brokerage relationship established
with the Custodian. Should a Client’s accounts make use of prime brokerage, the Client is required to
execute additional agreements with the Custodian authorizing the Advisor to trade away from and settle
to the Client’s established accounts at the Custodian. The Custodian may charge an additional trade-
away fee for these transactions in addition to the normal securities transaction costs.
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. Perigon will execute its transactions through
the Custodian as authorized by the Client.
Perigon may aggregate orders in a block trade or trades when securities are purchased or sold through the same
broker-dealer for multiple (discretionary) accounts on 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 Client accounts.
Digital Assets
Due to the nature of Digital Assets, trades cannot be aggregated. To address fair allocation and pricing for Client
Accounts, each portfolio manager who recommends a wholesale increase or decrease in Clients’ Digital Assets
will maintain a list of all participating Client Account numbers for each aggregated trade. The traders will organize
Client Account numbers in ascending or descending order and alternate daily trading orders by rotating ascending
order and descending order of Client Accounts to achieve equity among trading orders. Client Accounts that are
in the process of being onboarded are excluded from the concurrent order process due to the time delay in
processing documentation and funding the account. Client Accounts pending funding are also excluded from the
concurrent order process. Trades in digital assets for employees/principals will be executed last.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
A. Frequency of Reviews
Securities in Client accounts are monitored on a regular and continuous basis by advisors and periodically by the
Chief Investment Officer and/or CCO based upon risk associated and other factors. Formal reviews are generally
conducted at least annually or more frequently by advisors, depending amongst other things on the needs of the
Client and the complexity of the investment portfolio.

Page 23
www.perigonwealth.com
B. Causes for Reviews
Alongside the investment monitoring noted in Item 13.A., each Client account is generally reviewed at least
annually. Reviews can be conducted more frequently at the Client’s request or as deemed appropriate by Perigon
or the advisor. 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. The Client is
encouraged to notify Perigon 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 generally include all positions, transactions, and fees relating to the Client’s account. The Advisor
may also provide Clients with periodic reports regarding their holdings, allocations, and performance. Certain
investments
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
A. Compensation Received by Perigon
Perigon 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, Perigon may
receive non-compensated referrals of new Clients from various third parties.
Participation in the Institutional Advisor Platform (Schwab and Interactive Brokers)
As mentioned in Item 12, Perigon has established institutional relationships with Schwab through its “Schwab
Advisor Services” unit, a division of Schwab and Interactive Brokers dedicated to serving independent advisory
firms like Perigon. As a registered investment advisor participating on the Schwab Advisor Services and Interactive
Brokers platforms, Perigon receives access to software and related support without cost because the Advisor
renders investment management services to Clients that maintain assets at Schwab and Interactive Brokers.
Services provided by Schwab Advisor Services and Interactive Brokers benefit the Advisor, and many, but not all,
services provided by Schwab and Interactive Brokers will benefit Clients. The Advisor endeavors at all times to
put the interests of its Clients first in fulfilling its duties to its Clients. 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.
Services that Benefit the Client – Schwab and Interactive Broker’s institutional brokerage services include access
to a broad range of investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of Clients’ funds and
securities. Through Schwab and Interactive Brokers, 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 directly accesses the investments.
Services that May Indirectly Benefit the Client – Schwab and Interactive Brokers provide 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 and Interactive Brokers. These services are intended to assist the Advisor
in effectively managing accounts for its Clients but may not directly benefit all Clients.

www.perigonwealth.com
Services that May Only Benefit the Advisor – Schwab and Interactive Brokers also offer other services to Perigon
that may not benefit the Client, including educational conferences and events, financial start-up support, consulting
services, and discounts for various service providers. Access to these services creates a financial incentive for
the Advisor to recommend Schwab and Interactive Brokers, which results in a conflict of interest. Perigon believes,
however, that the selection of Schwab and Interactive Brokers as Custodians is in the best interests of its Clients.
In addition, Schwab has provided the Advisor with financial support in the transition of new investment advisory
representatives and reimbursements for various third-party service providers.
Participation in the Institutional Advisor Platform (Fidelity)
As noted in item 12, Perigon 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's services. The Advisor examined this 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. The Advisor endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients
first in fulfilling its duties to its Clients. 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 the Institutional Advisor Platform (LPL)
As referenced in Item 12, Perigon has established an institutional relationship with LPL to assist the Advisor in
managing Client account[s]. The Advisor receives access to software and related support as part of its relationship
with LPL. The software and related systems support may benefit the Advisor but not its Clients directly. The
Advisor endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first in fulfilling its duties to its Clients. 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 the Custodian over one that does not furnish
similar software, systems support, or services. Additionally, the Advisor may receive the following benefits from
LPL:
investment-related research
●
● pricing information and market data
● software and other technology that provides access to Client account data
● compliance and/or practice management-related publications
● consulting services
● attendance at conferences, meetings, and other educational and/or social events
● marketing support
● computer hardware and/or software
● other products and services used by the Advisor in furtherance of its investment advisory business
operations
LPL 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 may pay for some or all of the third party’s
fees.
These support services are provided to the Advisor based on the overall relationship between the Advisor and
LPL. It is not the result of soft dollar arrangements or any other express arrangements with LPL that involve the
Perigon Wealth Management, LLC

www.perigonwealth.com
execution of Client transactions as a condition of the receipt of services. The Advisor will continue to receive the
services regardless of the volume of Client transactions executed with LPL. Clients do not pay more for services
as a result of this arrangement. There is no corresponding commitment made by the Advisor 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 the Advisor receives these benefits from LPL, there is a conflict of interest as
the receipt of these products and services presents a financial incentive for the Advisor to recommend that its
Clients use LPL’s custodial platform rather than another custodian’s platform.
Participation in the Institutional Advisor Platform (Pershing, SPTC, and AssetMark)
As also disclosed in Item 12, Perigon has established institutional relationships with Pershing, SPTC, and
AssetMark to assist the Advisor in managing Client account[s]. Access to the Pershing, SPTC, and AssetMark
platforms 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
Pershing, SPTC, and AssetMark. The software and related systems support may benefit the Advisor but not its
Clients directly. The Advisor endeavors at all times to put the interests of its Clients first in fulfilling its duties to its
Clients. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic benefits from Custodians 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. Additionally, the Advisor will receive the following
benefits from Pershing, SPTC, and AssetMark: receipt of duplicate Client confirmations and bundled duplicate
statements; access to a trading desk that exclusively services its institutional participants; access to block trading,
which provides the ability to aggregate securities transactions and then allocate the appropriate shares to Client
accounts; and access to an electronic communication network for Client order entry and account information.
Participation in the Institutional Advisor Platform (Axos)
As noted in Item 12, the Advisor has established an institutional relationship with Axos to assist the Advisor in
managing Client account[s]. Access to the Axos platform is provided at no charge to the Advisor. The Axos
platform includes brokerage, custody, administrative support, record keeping, technology, and related services
designed to support registered investment advisors like the Advisor in serving Clients. These services are intended
to serve the best interests of the Advisor’s Clients.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform – Apex
For Clients referred to Perigon by Zoe Financial, Perigon utilizes Apex to assist the Advisor in managing Client
account[s]. Participants in the Zoe Financial Digital Wealth Platform must use Apex for brokerage and custodial
services to participate in the web-based portfolio management services. The software and related systems support
may benefit the Advisor but not its Clients directly. The Advisor receives access to software and related support
because the Advisor renders investment management services to Clients that maintain assets at Apex. 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 Advisor may receive research or benefits from its relationship with Zoe Financial and/or
Apex, but it does not receive Client referrals from Apex for using Apex as a broker-dealer/custodian.
Participation in Institutional Advisor Platform – Goldman
As noted in item 12, the Advisor has established an institutional relationship with Goldman to assist the Advisor
in managing Client account[s]. As part of the arrangement, Goldman also makes available to the Advisor, at no
additional charge to the Advisor, certain research and brokerage services, including research services obtained
by Goldman directly from independent research companies. The Advisor may also receive additional services and
support from Goldman. 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 Goldman's services. The Advisor examined this potential conflict
of interest when it chose to enter into the relationship with Goldman 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 wealth management services to Clients that maintain assets at Goldman 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. In addition, Goldman has provided the Advisor with financial support in the launch
of the Advisor and reimbursements for various third-party service providers.
Perigon is incented to recommend that Clients establish accounts with Goldman due to financial support received
from Goldman. Through the relationship with Goldman, Perigon is entitled to transition assistance payment for
certain vendors at the signing of the engagement and will receive additional support based on a specific amount
of Client assets to be custodied with Goldman. The receipt of any such compensation creates a financial incentive
for Perigon to recommend Goldman the Custodian for the assets in your account. This conflict is mitigated through
disclosure and that Clients are not obligated to utilize Perigon’s recommended Custodian. Additionally, as
mentioned above, the Client may directly or indirectly receive other benefits through the engagement with
Goldman. Perigon encourages you to discuss any such conflicts of interest with us before making a decision to
custody your assets at Goldman.
B. Compensation for Client Referrals
Certain Clients may be referred to the Advisor by either an affiliated or unaffiliated party (herein "Promoter") and
receive, directly or indirectly, compensation for the Client referral. In such instances, the Advisor will compensate
the Promoter a fee in accordance with Rule 206(4)-1 of the Advisers Act and any corresponding state securities
requirements. Any such compensation is paid solely from the investment advisory fees earned by the Advisor and
shall not result in any additional charge to the Client.
SIMC
As detailed in Item 4, Perigon is compensated for the referral of Clients to SIMC. In such arrangements, Perigon
has a conflict of interest in that Perigon will receive a portion of the third-party registered investment advisory fees
collected from the Client for the referral of the Client and the ongoing relationship management support provided
by Perigon. To mitigate this conflict of interest, Perigon will provide the Client with full disclosure of the
compensation and other conflicts prior to making the recommendation or referral to SIMC.
Item 15 – Custody
Deduction of Advisory Fees - To ensure compliance with regulatory requirements associated with the deduction
of advisory fees, Clients for whom Perigon exercises discretionary authority must hold their assets with a "qualified
custodian." Clients are responsible for engaging a “qualified custodian” to safeguard their funds and securities
and must instruct Perigon to utilize that Custodian for securities transactions on their behalf. Clients are
encouraged to review statements provided by the Custodian and compare them to any reports provided by
Perigon to ensure accuracy, as the Custodian does not perform this review.
Money Movement Authorization - For instances where Clients authorize Perigon to move funds between their
accounts, Perigon and the Custodian have implemented safeguards to ensure that all money movement activities
are conducted strictly in accordance with the Client’s documented instructions.
Surprise Examination - The Advisor is deemed to have custody over certain Client accounts and securities.
Pursuant to securities regulations, the Advisor is required to engage an independent accounting firm to perform
an annual surprise examination of those assets and accounts over which the Advisor maintains custody. Any
related opinions issued by an independent accounting firm are filed with the SEC and are publicly available on the
SEC’s Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website (www.adviserinfo.sec.gov).
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
Perigon generally has discretion over the selection and number 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
Perigon Wealth Management, LLC

www.perigonwealth.com
Perigon. The 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 Perigon will be in accordance with each Client's
investment objectives and goals.
Non-Discretionary accounts - Under limited circumstances, Perigon may manage accounts on a non-discretionary
basis. This means, Perigon 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
When selected by the client, Perigon accepts proxy-voting responsibilities for securities held in Client accounts.
The advisory agreement between Perigon and the Client will specify whether or not Perigon has the authority to
vote proxies on behalf of a particular Client.
Perigon has engaged Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc (“Broadridge”), a third-party,
independent proxy advisory firm, to vote proxies in order to mitigate risks involved with any conflicts of interest
that might otherwise arise in the voting of Client proxies and to assist in compliance with relevant regulatory
obligations. Although Perigon expects to vote proxies according to Broadridge’s recommendations, certain issues
may need to be considered on a case-by-case basis due to the diverse and continually evolving nature of
corporate governance issues. If such cases should arise, then Perigon will devote appropriate time and resources
to consider those issues.
Proxy Voting Policy and Procedures
Perigon votes proxies in the best interest of its Clients and does not subrogate the Client's interest to its own.
Perigon monitors corporate actions through the Custodian as appropriate. Perigon receives notice of upcoming
proxy votes, meeting and record dates, and other information on upcoming corporate actions by companies in
which Perigon Clients are shareholders. Clients may request a copy of Perigon’s proxy voting records free of
charge by contacting Perigon.
Conflicts of Interest in the Voting Process
On occasion, a conflict of interest may exist between the Advisor and the client regarding the outcome of certain
proxy votes. In such cases, the Advisor is committed to resolving the conflict in the best interest of the Clients
before voting the proxy in question.
Client Direction of Voting
Although most of Perigon’s Clients for whom the Advisor votes proxies authorize Perigon to vote in accordance
with its proxy voting policy, a Client can request that Perigon vote its proxies in accordance with a different policy.
The Advisor will try to accommodate such requests. In addition, a Client can direct Perigon to vote its securities
in a particular way on a particular proposal, and the Advisor will seek to do so, assuming timely receipt of the
instruction.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Neither Perigon nor its management have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair the ability
of Perigon to meet all obligations to its Clients. Perigon has not been subject to a bankruptcy or financial
compromise. Perigon is not required to deliver a balance sheet along with this Disclosure Brochure as it does
does not collect advance fees of $1,200 or more for services to be performed six months or more in the future.

Data Transfers to the United States
We are based in the United States (“U.S.”), and we process and store information
in the U.S. Therefore, we and our service providers will store and access your
personal information in the U.S. The U.S. may not provide equivalent levels of data
protection as enjoyed in your home jurisdiction.
It may occur that a third party based in the EU, such as your employer, may need
to transfer personal information to us for the purpose of verifying your participation
in a class. In such instances, whenever your personal data is transferred to
countries outside of the EAA, UK, or Switzerland, we will ensure that at least one
of the following safeguards is in place:
• The country is one that the European Commission has approved as
providing an adequate level of protection for personal data;
• The transfer is subject to a specific derogation in the GDPR or national
laws;
• Through the use of the standard contractual clauses as the transfer
mechanism when a case-by-case analysis has been performed; or
• Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or
codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European
Commission that give personal data substantially similar protection as in
the UE, EEA, or UK.
How you can access, update, or delete your data
It is very important that the information we hold about you is accurate and up to
date. You can also email us at any time if your personal information changes or you
want to opt out of email communication; please see the Opt-Out section above or

We will send you a copy of this Policy annually for as long as you maintain an ongoing relationship with us.
Periodically, we may revise this Policy and will provide you with a revised Policy if the changes materially alter the
previous Privacy Policy. We will not, however, revise our Privacy Policy to permit the sharing of non-public
personal information other than as described in this notice unless we first notify you and provide you with an
opportunity to prevent the information sharing.
