Other business activities
Outside business activity is any business or activity undertaken by an advisor that is outside the scope of their relationship with their firm (e.g., consulting services, real estate, freelance work, teaching, etc.). Investors should stay informed about these activities to ensure no conflicts of interest.
OFFICER IN ATM PROPERTIES AND RL HARGER AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Also conduct seminars through local universities. None of these activities are investment related. The address of the business is 8048 One Calais Avenue Suite D Baton Rouge, LA 70809. RL Harger and Associates is the parent company of Harger and Company, Inc. and ATM Properties is the company that owns the building that Harger and Company, Inc. rents. I am an officer of both companies. I started my relationship with RL Harger and Associates in 2006 and ATM Properties in 2008. I spend about 1 hour per month on each of these companies during trading hours. The only duties that I do with these companies is general office related duties. For the teaching activity, this is on an as needed basis. I have done this class since about 2010 and when I am teaching a class, it will take up about 12 hours per month, none of which is done during trading hours and it is educationally related to investments in that it covers a brief overview of financial planning.
