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.
David Layte is an independent licensed insurance agent with SHP Financial. From time to time, he will offer clients advice or products from those activities. Clients should be aware that these services pay a commission or other compensation and involve a conflict of interest, as commissionable products conflict with the fiduciary duties of a registered investment adviser. SWML addresses this conflict of interest by requiring its supervised persons to act in the best interest of the client, including when acting as an insurance agent. SWML periodically reviews recommendations by its supervised persons to assess whether they are based on an objective evaluation of each client's risk profile and investment objectives rather than on the receipt of any commissions or other benefits. SWML will disclose in advance how it or its supervised persons are compensated and will disclose conflicts of interest involving any advice or service provided. At no time will an advisory client be required to use the outside services of any supervised person as a condition of receiving advisory services of SWML. No client is under any obligation to purchase any insurance product.
