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.
Mr. Shantzer receives compensation in connection with his real estate investments, however, this activity does not require any substantial commitment of his time and is in no way connected with Marcum Wealth, and does not propose any conflicts. Mr. Shantzer is also a licensed insurance agent and spends approximately 10 hours per month on, and derives income from, such other activities. Mr. Shantzer may refer clients to Marcum Insurance Services, LLC (MIS) for insurance-related services and products. MIS is an affiliated insurance agency of Marcum Wealth. Given Jerry Shantzer's employment with Marcum Wealth, he has an economic incentive to recommend MIS.
