Item 4: Advisory Business
Toomey Investment Management, Inc. (hereinafter, “TIMI”) is an SEC registered investment adviser
with its principal place of business located in Connecticut. The TIMI investment advisory segment
began conducting business in 2000, though the firm’s principal and president has been engaged in the
financial services business since 1986.
Listed below is the firm’s principal shareholder (i.e., those individuals and/or entities controlling 25%
or more of this company).
• Brendan Toomey, President
TOOMEY INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, INC
MODEL PORFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Our firm provides portfolio management services to clients using model asset allocation portfolios.
Each model portfolio is constructed, monitored and modified by our advisory team to meet a
particular investment goal and we integrate the following concepts:
1. Diverse Asset Allocation – allocation of client assets to be selected from among a broad
universe of mutual funds, ETFs, equities, asset classes and style categories in accordance
with a client’s investment objectives;
2. Tactical Asset Allocation – allocation of client assets among mutual funds, ETF's and
equities with an overlay of technical analysis, e.g., asset management charting software.
We manage these advisory accounts on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis. Account supervision
is guided by the client’s stated objectives (i.e., maximum capital appreciation, growth, income, or
growth and income), as well as tax considerations.
Through personal discussions with the client in which the client’s goals and objectives are established,
we determine if the model portfolio is suitable to the client’s circumstances. Once we determine the
suitability of the portfolio, the portfolio is managed based on the portfolio’s goal, 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. Clients retain individual ownership of all
securities.
Our investment recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service offered by a broker
dealer or insurance company and will generally include advice regarding the following securities:
• Exchange-listed securities
• Warrants
• Corporate debt securities (other than commercial paper)
• Commercial paper
• Certificates of deposit
• Municipal securities
• Variable life insurance
• Mutual fund shares
Interests in partnerships investing in real estate
Interests in partnerships investing in oil and gas interests
• United States governmental securities
• Options contracts on securities
•
•
• Other
Because some types of investments involve certain additional degrees of risk, they will only be
implemented/recommended when consistent with the client’s stated investment objectives,
tolerance risk, liquidity and suitability.
To ensure that our initial determination of an appropriate portfolio remains suitable and that the
account continues to be managed in a manner consistent with the client’s financial circumstances,
we will:
1. Send quarterly written reminders to each Model Portfolio Management Services client
requesting any updated information regarding changes in the client’s financial situation and
investment objectives;
2. At least annually, contact each participating client to determine whether there have been any
changes in the client’s financial situation or investment objectives, and whether the client
wishes to impose investment restrictions or modify existing restrictions;
3. Be reasonably available to consult with the client; and
4. Maintain client suitability information in each client’s file.
PENSION CONSULTING SERVICES
We also provide several advisory services separately or in combination. While the primary clients for
these services will be pension, profit sharing and 401(k) plans, we offer these services, where
appropriate, to individuals and trusts, estates and charitable organizations. Pension Consulting Services
are comprised of four distinct services. Clients may choose to use any or all of these services.
Investment Policy Statement Preparation (hereinafter referred to as “IPS”):
We will meet with the client (in person or over the telephone) to determine an appropriate investment
strategy that reflects the plan sponsor’s stated investment objectives for management of the overall
plan. Our firm then prepares a written IPS detailing those needs and goals, included an encompassing
policy under which these goals are to be achieved. The IPS also lists the criteria for selection of
investment vehicles as well as the procedures and timing interval for monitoring of investment
performance.
Selection of Investment Vehicles:
We assist plan sponsors in constructing appropriate asset allocation models. We will then review
various mutual funds (both index and managed) to determine which investments are appropriate to
implement the client’s IPS. The number of investments to be recommended will be determined by the
client, based on the IPS.
Monitoring of Investment Performance:
We monitor client investments continually, based on the procedures and timing intervals delineated in
the Investment Policy Statement. Although our firm is not involved in any way in the purchase or sale
of these investments, we supervise the client’s portfolio and will make recommendations to the client as
market factors and the client’s needs dictate.
Employee Communications:
For pension, profit sharing and 401(k) plan clients with individual plan participants exercising control
over assets in their own account (“self-directed plans”), we may also provide quarterly educational
support and investment workshops designed for the plan participants. The nature of the topics to be
covered will be determined by us and the client under the guidelines established in the ERISA Section
404(c). The educational support and investment workshops will NOT provide plan participants with
individualized, tailored investment advice or individualized, tailored asset allocation recommendations.
FINANCIAL PLANNING
We provide financial planning services. Financial planning is a comprehensive evaluation of a client’s
current and future financial state by using currently known variables to predict future cash flows, asset
values and withdrawal plans. Through the financial planning process, all questions, information and
analyses are considered as they impact and are impacted by the entire financial and life situation of the
client. Clients purchasing this service receive a written report which provides the client with a detailed
financial plan designed to assist the client achieve his or her financial goals and objectives.
In general, the financial plan can address any or all of the following areas:
• PERSONAL: We review family records, budgeting, personal liability, estate information and
financial goals.
•
•
• TAX & CASH FLOW: We analyze the client’s income tax and spending and planning for past,
current and future years; then illustrate the impact of various investments on the client’s current
income tax and future tax liability.
INVESTMENTS: We analyze investment alternatives and their effect on the client’s portfolio.
INSURANCE: We review existing polices to ensure proper coverage for life, health, disability,
long-term care, liability, home and automobile.
• RETIREMENT: We analyze current strategies and investment plans to help the client achieve
his or her retirement goals.
• DEATH & DISABILITY: We review the client’s cash needs at death, income needs of surviving
dependents, estate planning and disability income.
• ESTATE: We assist the client in assessing and developing long-term strategies, including as
appropriate, living trusts, wills, and review estate tax, powers of attorney, asset protection plans,
nursing homes, Medicaid and elder law.
We gather required information through in-depth personal interviews. Information gathered includes
the client’s current family and financial status, tax status, future goals, return objectives, liquidity, debt
ratio, risk management, asset allocation, succession and attitudes towards risk. We carefully review
documents supplied by the client, including a questionnaire completed by the client, and prepare a
written report. Should the client choose to implement the recommendations contained in the plan, we
suggest the client work closely with his/her attorney, accountant, insurance agent, and/or advisors.
Implementation of financial plan recommendations is entirely at the client’s discretion.
We also provide general investment or non-securities advice on topics that may include tax and
budgetary planning, estate planning and business planning. Other examples may include:
• Equities, ETF's and Mutual fund shares
• Workplace and individual retirement plans
• Corporate debt securities (other than commercial paper)
• Certificates of deposit
• United States government and Municipal securities
• Advanced Inheritance planning
• Variable or other life insurance types
• Variable, Fixed or Indexed annuities
• Options contracts and Warrants on securities
• Partnerships investing in real estate, oil and gas interests, etc.
• Healthcare and Long-Term Care
• Other
Typically the financial plan is presented to the client within six months of contract date, provided that
all information needed to prepare the financial plan has been promptly provided.
Financial Planning recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service offered by a
broker-dealer or insurance company. All recommendations are of a generic nature.
AMOUNT OF MANAGED ASSETS
As of 12/31/2025, we are actively managing $321,024,425 of client assets; of which $315,061,588 are
managed on a discretionary basis, plus $5,962,837 of qualified retirement plan assets on a non-
discretionary basis.
Item 5: Fees and Compensation
INDIVIDUAL MODEL PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT FEES
Our annual fees for Investment Supervisory Services are based upon a percentage of assets under
management and generally range from .40% to 2.00%.
Limited Negotiability & Calculation of Advisory Fees: TIMI has established the aforementioned fee
range and we retain the discretion to set and negotiate fees on a client-by-client basis. Client facts,
circumstances and needs will be considered in determining the fee schedule. These include the
complexity of the client, assets to be placed under management, anticipated future additional assets,
related accounts, portfolio style, account composition and reports, among other factors. The specific
annual fee will be identified in the contract between the adviser and each client. Advisory fees are
calculated using the value of the account on the last day of the prior calendar quarter and are billed in
advance for the next calendar quarter. (See "General Information", below)
We may group certain related client accounts for the purposes of achieving the minimum account size
requirements and determining the annualized fee.
Discounts, not generally available to our advisory clients, may be offered to family members and
friends of associated persons of our firm.
PENSION CONSULTING FEES
We charge an annual fee for Pension Consulting Services, which ranges from .40% to 2.95% of plan
assets depending on the services requested and the size of the plan.
TIMI offers several fee options. TIMI may be compensated based on an annual percentage of plan
assets for services involving ongoing reviews, or it may be compensated by an hourly fee or fixed fee.
Alternatively, these different types of fees may also be combined as appropriate for the different types
of services requested by the client.
Typically, the annual fee ranges from .40% to 2.95% of plan assets depending on the services requested
and the size of the plan. Fees will be based upon the value of the plan at the end of the previous period.
Fees will not be adjusted based on additions and withdrawals during the calendar quarter.
TIMI’s hourly charges range from $50 to $400 per hour. A fixed fee may be quoted based on an
estimate of hours for the services requested. TIMI may request a retainer for hourly and fixed fee
arrangements. The amount of requested retainer will never exceed the fee for services to be provided
within the first six months of an engagement.
Pension Consulting Services may be charged as a fixed fee, negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
Overall factors to be considered will include the services requested and the size of the plan. TIMI’s
fixed fees range from $1,000 to $5,000.
Plan sponsors are invoiced in advance at the beginning of each calendar quarter or if a fixed fee,
pursuant to the schedule in the fixed agreement.
FINANCIAL PLANNING FEES
TIMI’s Financial Planning fee will be determined based on the nature of the services being provided
and the complexity of each client’s circumstances. All fees are agreed upon prior to entering into a
contract with any client.
Our Financial Planning fees are calculated and charged on an hourly basis, ranging from $50 to $400
per hour. Although the length of time it will take to provide a Financial Plan will depend on each
client’s personal situation, we will provide an estimate for the total hours at the start of the advisory
relationship.
Our Financial Planning fees may be calculated and charged on a fix fee basis, typically ranging from
$500 to $5000, depending on the specific arrangement reached with the client.
We may request a retainer upon completion of our initial fact-finding session with the client; however,
advance payment will never exceed $500 for work that will not be completed within six months. The
balance is due upon completion of the plan.
Financial Planning Fee Offset: TIMI reserves the discretion to reduce or waive the hourly fee and/or
the minimum fixed fee if a financial planning client chooses to engage us for our Portfolio
Management Services.
The client will be billed quarterly in arrears based on actual hours accrued.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Termination of the Advisory Relationship: A client agreement may be canceled at any time, by either
party, for any reason. As disclosed above, certain fees are paid in advance of services provided. Upon
termination of any account, including the death of the account holder, any prepaid, unearned fees will
be refunded. In calculating a non-decedent client’s reimbursement of fees, we will pro rate the
reimbursement according to the number of days remaining in the billing period. For decedent\estate
account termination, unearned fees will be pro rated from the date(s) of final distributions from the
account(s) up to the end of the billing period.
Mutual Fund Fees: All fees paid to TIMI for investment advisory services are separate and distinct
from the fees and expenses charged by mutual funds and/or EFTs to their shareholders. These fees and
expenses are described in each fund’s prospectus. These fees will generally include a management fee,
other fund expenses, and a possible distribution fee. If the fund also imposes sales charges, a client
may pay an initial or deferred sales charge. A client could invest in a mutual fund directly, without our
services. In that case, the client would not receive the services provided by our firm which are
designed, among other things, to assist the client in determining which mutual fund or funds are most
appropriate to each client’s financial condition and objectives. Accordingly, the client should review
both the fees charged by the funds and our fees to fully understand the total amount of fees to be paid
by the client and to thereby evaluate the advisory services being provided.
Additional Fees and Expenses: In addition to our advisory fees, clients are also responsible for the
fees and expenses charged by custodians and imposed by broker dealers, including, but not limited to,
any transaction charges imposed by a broker dealer for transactions executed by an independent
investment manager in the client’s account(s). Please refer to the “Brokerage Practices” section (Item
12) of this Form ADV for additional information. Also, in the event that a client purchases or places an
annuity within the advisory practice and platform, an administration fee, currently assessed at .25%
per annum (calculated from the contract value) will be charged by the insurance carrier. TIMI will
typically assess a separate advisory fee in accordance with the TIMI advisory agreement which is
ordinarily debited against non-annuity assets. It is possible that a client may only maintain an annuity
in the TIMI advisory practice (no other non-annuity assets). In such cases, if applicable, TIMI may
elect to either disengage that annuity contract(s) from our firm or oversee the same without advisory
fees.
ERISA Accounts: TIMI is deemed to be a fiduciary to advisory clients that are employee benefit plans
or individual retirement accounts (IRAs) pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income and Securities
Act (“ERISA”). As such, our firm is subject to specific duties and obligations under ERISA and the
Internal Revenue Code that include among other things, restrictions concerning certain forms of
compensation. To avoid engaging in prohibited transactions, TIMI may only charge fees for
investment advice about products for which our firm and/or our related persons do not receive any
commissions or 12b-1 fees, or conversely, investment advice about products for which our firm and/or
related persons receive commissions or 12b-1 fees, however, only when such fees are used to offset
TIMI advisory fees.
Advisory Fees in General: Clients should note that similar advisory services may (or may not) be
available from other registered (or unregistered) investment advisers for similar, higher or lower fees.
Limited Prepayment of Fees: Under no circumstances do we require or solicit payment of fees in
excess of $500 more than six months in advance of services rendered. As state-registered advisers are
subject to the rules and regulations of their home state, i.e., the state in which the firm maintains its
principal place of business, these firms should review home state requirements which may limit
prepayment fees in excess of $500.
Item 6: Performance-Based and Side-By-Side Management
TIMI does not charge performance-based fees.
Item 7: Types of Clients
TIMI may provide advisory services to the following types of clients:
Individuals (other than high net worth individuals)
•
• High net worth individuals
• Pension and profit sharing plans (other than plan participants)
• Charitable organizations
• Corporations or other businesses not listed above
Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
METHODS OF ANALYSIS
We use the following methods of analysis in formulating our investment advice and/or managing client
assets:
Charting. In this type of technical analysis, we review charts of market and specific security activity
in an attempt to identify when the market is moving up or down and to predict when and how long the
trend may last and when that trend might reverse.
Fundamental Analysis. We attempt to measure the intrinsic value of a security by analyzing economic
and financial criteria including the overall economy, industry conditions, geo-political matters and the
detailed company-specific financial statements such as 10-K reports and internet based data.
Technical Analysis. We analyze past market movements and apply that analysis to the present in an
attempt to recognize recurring patterns of investor behavior and potentially predict future price
movement.
Technical analysis does not consider the underlying financial condition of a company. This presents a
risk in that a poorly managed or financially unsound company may under-perform regardless of market
movement.
Asset Allocation. Using the aforementioned evaluation tools, we attempt to identify an appropriate
ratio of securities, fixed income, and cash suitable to the client’s investment goals and risk tolerance.
A risk of asset allocation is that the client may not participate in sharp increases in a particular security,
industry or market sector. Another risk is that the ratio of securities, fixed income, and cash will
change over time due to stock and market movements (drift) and, if not corrected, will no longer be
appropriate for the client’s goals.
Mutual Fund and/or ETF Analysis. We look at the experience and track record of the manager of the
mutual fund or ETF in attempt to determine if that manager has demonstrated an ability to invest over a
period of time and in different economic conditions. We also look at the underlying assets in a mutual
fund or ETF in attempt to determine if there is significant overlap in the underlying investments held in
another fund(s) in the client’s portfolio. We also monitor the funds or ETFs in an attempt to determine
if they are continuing to follow their stated investment strategy.
A risk of mutual fund and/or ETF analysis is that, as in all securities investments, past performance
does not guarantee future results. A manager who has been successful may not be able to replicate that
success in the future. In addition, as we do not control the underlying investments in a fund or ETF,
managers or different funds held by the client may purchase the same security, increasing the risk to the
client if that security were to fall in value. There is also a risk that a manager may deviate from the
stated investment mandate or strategy of the fund or ETF, which could make the holding(s) less suitable
for the client’s portfolio.
Risks for all forms of analysis. Our securities analysis methods rely on the assumption that the
companies whose securities we purchase and sell, the rating agencies that review these securities, and
other publicly available sources of information about these securities, are providing accurate and
unbiased data. While we are alert to indications that data may be incorrect, there is always a risk that
our analysis may be compromised by inaccurate or misleading information.
INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
We use the following strategy(s) in managing clients accounts held in our model portfolios, provided
that such strategy(s) are appropriate to the needs of the client and consistent with the client’s
investment objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizons among other considerations:
Long-term purchases. We purchase securities with the idea of holding them in the client’s account for
a year or longer. Typically we employ this strategy when:
• We believe the securities to be currently undervalued, and/or
• We want exposure to a particular asset class over time, regardless of the current projection for
this class.
A risk in a long-term purchase strategy is that by holding the security for this length of time, we may
not take advantage of short-term gains that could be profitable to a client. Moreover, if our predictions
are incorrect, a security may decline sharply in value before we make the decision to sell.
Short-term purchases. When utilizing this strategy, we purchase securities with the idea of selling
them within a relatively short time (typically a year or less). We do this in an attempt to take advantage
of conditions that we believe will soon result in a price swing in the securities we purchase.
Risk of Loss. Securities investments are not guaranteed and you may lose money on your investments.
We ask that you work with us to help us understand your tolerance for risk.
Item 9: Disciplinary Information
We are required to disclose any legal or disciplinary events that are material to client’s or
prospective client’s evaluation of our advisory business or the integrity of our management.
Our firm and our management personnel have no reportable disciplinary events to disclose.
Item 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Advisory personnel of TIMI are also separately licensed as registered representatives of Leigh
Baldwin & Co., a broker-dealer. Leigh Baldwin & Co. assists TIMI with non-discretionary services,
which are unrelated to the discretionary Model Portfolio Management Services.
Advisory personnel of our firm, in their individual capacities, are also agents for various insurance
companies. As such, these individuals may receive separate, yet customary commission compensation
resulting from executing product transactions on behalf of advisory clients. Clients, however, are under
no obligation to engage our advisors for final implementation of insurance or related recommendations.
We undertake the role of assisting the client with assessing the various options but the ultimate
selections are solely at the discretion of the client.
Clients should be aware that the receipt of additional compensation by TIMI and its management
persons or employees creates a conflict of interest that may impair the objectivity of our firm and these
individuals when making advisory recommendations. TIMI endeavors at all times to put the interest of
its clients first as part of our fiduciary duty as a registered investment adviser; we take the following
steps to address this conflict:
• We disclose to clients the existence of all material conflicts of interest, including the potential
for our firm and our employees to earn compensation from advisory clients in addition to our
firm’s advisory fees;
• We disclose to clients that they are not obligated to purchase recommended investment products
from our employees or affiliated companies;
• We collect, maintain and document accurate, complete and relevant client background
information, including the client’s financial goals, objectives and risk tolerance;
• Our firm’s management conducts regular reviews of each client account to verify that all
recommendations made to a client are suitable to the client’s needs and circumstances;
• We require that our employees seek prior approval of any outside employment activity so that
we may ensure that any conflicts of interests in such activities are properly addressed;
• We periodically monitor these outside employment activities to verify that any conflicts of
interest continue to be properly addressed by our firm; and
• We educate our employees regarding the responsibilities of fiduciary, including the need for
having a reasonable and independent basis for the investment advice provided to clients.
Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
Our firm has adopted a Code of Ethics, which sets forth high ethical standards of business conduct that
we require of our employees, including compliance with applicable federal securities law.
TIMI and our personnel owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards our clients, and have an
obligation to adhere not only to the specific provisions of Code of Ethics but to the general principles
that guide the Code.
Our Code of Ethics includes policies and procedures for the review of quarterly securities transactions
reports as well as initial and annual securities holdings reports that must be submitted by the firm’s
advisory staff. Among other things, our Code of Ethics also requires the prior approval of any
acquisition of securities in a limited offering (e.g., private placement) or an initial public offering. Our
code also provides for oversight, enforcement and recordkeeping provisions.
TIMI’s Code of Ethics further includes the firm’s policy prohibiting the use of material non-public
information. While we do not believe that we have any particular access to non-public information, all
employees are reminded that such information may not be used in a personal or professional capacity.
A copy of our Code of Ethics is available to our advisory clients and prospective clients. You may
request a copy by email sent to b2mee@toomeyinvest.com or by calling us at (203) 949-1710.
TIMI and individuals associated with our firm are prohibited from engaging in principal transactions.
TIMI and individuals associated with our firm are prohibited from engaging in agency cross
transactions.
Our Code of Ethics is designed to assure that the personal securities transactions, activities and interests
of our employees will not interfere with (i) making decisions in the best interest of advisory clients and
(ii) implementing such decisions while, at the same time, allowing employees to invest for their own
accounts.
Our firm and/or individuals associated with our firm may buy or sell for their personal accounts
securities identical to or different from those recommended to our clients. In addition, any related
person(s) may have an interest or position in a certain security(s) which may also be recommended to a
client.
It is the expressed policy of our firm that no person employed by us may purchase or sell any security
prior to a transaction(s) being implemented for an advisory account, thereby preventing such
employee(s) from benefiting from transactions placed on behalf of advisory accounts.
As disclosed in the preceding section of this Brochure (Item 10), related persons of our firm are
separately registered as securities representatives of Leigh Baldwin & Co., a broker dealer.
Advisory personnel may also be licensed as independent insurance agents/brokers of various
insurance companies. Please refer to Item 10 for detailed explanation of these relationships and
important conflict of interest disclosures.
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
TIMI will endeavor to select those brokers or dealers, which will provide the best services at the lowest
commission\expense rates possible. The reasonableness of those expenses are based on the broker’s
stability, reputation, ability to provide professional services, competitive commission rates and prices,
research, trading platform, and other services which help TIMI in providing investment management
services to clients. TIMI may, therefore recommend (or use) the use of a broker who provides useful
research and securities transaction services even though a lower commission may be charged by a
broker who offers no research services and minimal securities transaction assistance. Research services
may be useful in servicing all our clients, and not all of such research may be useful for the account for
which the particular transaction was effected.
Consistent with obtaining best execution for clients, TIMI may direct brokerage transactions for clients’
portfolios to brokers who provide research and execution services to TIMI and, indirectly, to TIMI’s
clients. These services are of the type described in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 and are designed to augment our own internal research and investment strategy capabilities. This
may be done without prior agreement or understanding by the client (and done at our discretion).
Research services obtained through the use of soft dollars may be developed by brokers to whom
brokerage is directed by third parties who are compensated by the broker. TIMI does not attempt to put
a specific dollar value on the services rendered or to allocate the relative costs or benefits of those
services among clients, believing that the research we receive will help us to fulfill our overall duty to
our clients. TIMI may not use each particular research service, however, to service each client. As a
result, a client may pay brokerage commissions that are used, in part, to purchase research services that
are not used to benefit that specific client. Broker-dealers we select may be paid commissions for
effecting transactions for our clients that exceed the amounts other broker-dealers would have charged
for effecting these transactions if TIMI determines in good faith that such amounts are reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by those broker-dealers, viewed
either in terms of a particular transaction or our overall duty to its (‘brokerage’) discretionary client
accounts.
Within our last fiscal year, we have obtained the following products and services on soft-dollar basis:
Research and Brokerage Products and Services. “Research” products and services we may receive
from broker-dealers may include economic surveys, data, and analysis; financial publications;
recommendations or other information about particular companies and industries (through research
reports and otherwise); and other products or services (e.g., computer services and equipment,
including hardware, software, and data bases) that provide lawful and appropriate assistance to the firm
in the performance of its investment decision-making responsibilities. Consistent with Section 28(e),
brokerage products and services (beyond traditional execution services) consist primarily of computer
services and software that permit us to effect securities transactions and perform functions incidental to
transaction execution. We generally use such products and services in the conduct of our investment
decision making, generally, not just for those accounts whose commissions may be considered to have
been used to pay for the products or services.
TIMI requires that it be provided with the authority to determine the broker-dealer to use for client
transactions and the commission costs that will be charged to our clients for these transactions.
Clients must include any limitations on this discretionary authority on the TIMI Management
Agreement. Clients may change/amend these limitations as required. Such amendments must be
provided to us in writing.
TIMI has an arrangement with National Financial Services LLC, and Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC
(together with affiliates, “Fidelity”), through which Fidelity provides our firm with their “platform”
services. The platform services include, among others, brokerage, custodial, administrative support,
recordkeeping and related services that are intended to support intermediaries like TIMI in conducting
business and in serving the best interests of our clients but that may also benefit us.
Fidelity may charge brokerage commissions and transaction fees for effecting certain securities
transactions (i.e., transactions fees are charged for certain no-load mutual funds, commissions may be
charged for individual equity and debt securities transactions). Fidelity enables TIMI to obtain many
no-load mutual funds without transaction charges 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. As part of the arrangement,
Fidelity also makes available to our firm, at no additional charge to us, certain research and brokerage
services, including research services obtained by Fidelity directly from independent research
companies, as selected by TIMI (within specified parameters). These research and brokerage services
presently include services such as economic surveys, data, and analyses; financial publications;
recommendations or other information about particular companies and industries (through research
reports and otherwise); and are used by our firm to manage accounts for which we have investment
discretion.
As a result of receiving such services for no additional cost, we may have an incentive to continue to
use or expand the use of Fidelity’s services. We examined this potential conflict of interest when we
chose to enter into the relationship with Fidelity and have determined that the relationship is in the best
interests of TIMI’s clients and satisfies our client obligations, including our duty to seek best execution.
A client may pay a commission that is higher than other qualified broker-dealer might charge to effect
the same transaction where we determine in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to
the value of the brokerage and research services received. In seeking best execution, the determinative
factor is not the lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction presents the best qualitative
execution, taking into consideration the full range of a broker-dealers' services, including the value of
research provided, execution capability, commission rates, and responsiveness. Accordingly while
TIMI will seek competitive rates, to the benefit of all clients, we may not necessarily obtain the lowest
possible commission rates for specific client account transactions. Although the investment research
products and services that may be obtained by us will generally be used to service all of our clients, a
brokerage commission paid by a specific client may be used to pay for research that is not used in
managing that specific client’s account. TIMI and Fidelity are not affiliated but Leigh Baldwin & Co.
(our broker-dealer) does maintain a clearing arrangement with National Financial Services LLC (which
is affiliated with Fidelity).
Item 13: Review of Accounts
TIMI MODEL PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
REVIEWS: The underlying securities within TIMI Model Portfolio Management Services accounts are
typically monitored on a daily basis. Accounts are reviewed in the context of each client’s stated
investment objectives and guidelines. Reviews may also be triggered by material changes in variables
such as the client’s individual circumstances, "the markets" and the political or economic environment.
The TIMI advisors commonly review a wide range of reports and research to gauge performance,
volatility, model drift (misallocation of model weightings) and other measures to aid with model
analysis.
These accounts are reviewed by: The Firm’s President, Brendan R. Toomey and other advisors.
REPORTS: Clients normally receive monthly statements and confirmations of transactions from either
Fidelity IWS or TIMI. In certain instances such as low-activity and annuity accounts, statements will
be sent quarterly. The firm also provides online access though eMoney and other portals.
PENSION CONSULTING SERVICES
REVIEWS: TIMI will review the client’s Investment Policy Statement (IPS) whenever the client
advises us of a change in the circumstances regarding the needs of the plan. TIMI will also review the
investment options of the plan according to the agreed upon time intervals established in the IPS. Such
reviews will generally occur quarterly.
These accounts are reviewed by: the Firm’s President, Brendan R. Toomey.
REPORTS: These client accounts will receive reports as contracted for at the inception of the advisory
relationship. Online access is another customary delivery method.
FINANCIAL PLANNING SERVICES
REVIEWS: While reviews may occur at different stages depending on the nature and terms of specific
engagement, typically no formal reviews will be conducted for Financial Planning clients unless
otherwise contracted for.
REPORTS: Financial Planning clients may receive a completed financial plan, conditioned on the
scope of services prescribed. Additional reports will not typically be provided unless otherwise
contracted for.
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
CLIENT REFERRALS
Our firm may pay referral fees to independent persons or firms (“Solicitors”) for introducing clients to
us. Whenever we pay a referral fee, we require the Solicitor to provide the prospective client with a
copy of this document (our Firm Brochure) and a separate disclosure statement that includes the
following information:
• The Solicitor’s name and relationship with our firm;
• The fact that the Solicitor is being paid a referral fee;
• The amount of the fee; and
• Whether the fee paid to us by the client will be increased above our normal fees in order to
compensate the Solicitor
• Presently, TIMI does not engage any compensated solicitors, as described above.
Item 15: Custody
We previously disclosed in the “Fees and Compensation” section (Item 5) of this Brochure that our
firm directly debits advisory fees from client accounts.
As part of this billing process, the client’s custodian is advised of the amount of the fee to be deducted
from that client’s account. For full-disclosure, the typical client receives a monthly statement which
presents all activities during the prior month, including the quarterly payment of the advisory fee. On
at least a quarterly basis, the custodian is required to send to the client a statement showing holdings,
all transactions, etc., within the account during the reporting period.
Because the custodian does not calculate the amount of the fee to be deducted, it is important for clients
to carefully review their custodial statements to verify the accuracy of the calculation, among other
things. Clients should contact us directly if they believe that there may be an error in their statement.
Our firm does not have actual or constructive custody of client accounts.
Item 16: Investment Discretion
INVESTMENT DISCRETION
Clients may hire us to provide discretionary asset management services, in which case we place trades
in a client’s account without contacting the client prior to each trade to obtain the client’s permission.
Our discretionary authority includes the ability to do the following without contacting the client:
• Determine the security to buy or sell; and/or
• Determine the amount of security to buy or sell
Clients give us discretionary authority when they sign a discretionary agreement with our firm, and
may limit this authority by giving us written instructions. Clients may also change/amend such
limitations by once again providing us with written instructions. TIMI reserves the right to reject client
relationships where limited discretion is requested.
Item 17: Voting Client Securities
VOTING CLIENT SECURITIES
As a matter of firm policy, we do not vote proxies on behalf of clients. Therefore, although our firm
may provide investment advisory services relative to client investment assets, clients maintain
exclusive responsibility for: (1) directing the manner in which proxies solicited by issuers of securities
beneficially owned by the client shall be voted, and (2) making all elections relative to any mergers,
acquisitions, tender offers, bankruptcy proceedings or other type events pertaining to the client’s
investment assets. Clients are responsible for instructing each custodian of the assets, to forward to the
client copies of all proxies and shareholder communications relating to the client’s investment assets.
We may provide clients with consulting assistance regarding proxy issues if they contact us with
questions at our principal place of business.
Item 18: Financial Information
TIMI has no additional financial circumstances to report.
Under no circumstances do we require or solicit payment of fees in excess of $500 per client more than
six months in advance of services rendered. Therefore, we are not required to include a financial
statement.
TIMI has never been the subject of a bankruptcy petition at any time.
