Insigneo Advisory Services, LLC (“Insigneo”, “IAS”, or the Adviser”) is a limited liability
company formed in Florida. The Adviser was originally established in 2011 as Global Advisory
Services, LLC. The Adviser is owned directly by Insigneo Financial Group, LLC formerly
known as Insigneo Financial Services, LLC, which is indirectly owned and controlled by Raul

Types of Advisory Services
IAS provides investment advisory services to retail and institutional clients through
specialized programs described below. Adviser provides investment advisory services to
clients through the management of investment portfolios in accordance with the objectives,
guidelines, and risk profiles of individual clients. Clients provide such information to
Adviser at or before the time they enter into an advisory agreement with Adviser. The
Adviser may provide additional services to clients as negotiated with each client and
Adviser may charge a fee that would be negotiated with the client.
Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on the management of their Accounts, by
restricting particular securities or types of investments. Clients should be aware that
performance of restricted accounts may differ from performance of accounts without
such impediments, possibly producing lower overall results.
1. Insigneo Managed Accounts (“Managed Accounts”)
Adviser offers advisory services through various types of discretionary and non-discretionary
accounts in accordance with each client’s investment objectives. The Adviser’s discretionary
and non-discretionary investment management services include the design, structure, and
implementation of investment strategies for Managed Accounts.
o Discretionary Accounts
Adviser offers discretionary Managed Accounts that are customized to each client. Managed
Accounts managed on a discretionary basis may focus on investments in specified and
limited kinds of assets and securities, in limited markets, or they may be broad-based across
many asset classes and markets. For client accounts managed on a discretionary basis, the
Adviser will have full authority with respect to the notional value of purchases and sales of
securities in traditional asset classes such as equities, mutual funds and fixed income
securities and derivatives. The Adviser will also have the authority with respect to the timing
of when a transaction is placed in an account. These accounts are managed by the financial
advisor, who ultimately determines the investment strategy and asset breakdown based on
clients’ needs, investment objectives and risk tolerance.
o Non-Discretionary Accounts
Adviser offers non-discretionary Managed Accounts. Each non-discretionary agreement
typically defines the services to be provided and if a fee is charged, the fees will also be
agreed to in the advisory agreement. Adviser also provides recommendations and research
regarding the investment of securities and cash in a client’s account. These services are
individually tailored to each client’s needs and such advice may be provided to accounts with
assets maintained at various third parties, depending on the client. For client accounts
managed on a non-discretionary basis, clients will make the final decision with respect to the
purchase or sale of any securities in their account(s) following the investment strategy
discussed with the financial advisor. The Adviser will always obtain client consent prior to
placing any transactions in non-discretionary accounts.
2. Insigneo MultiAsset Portfolios (“I-maps”)
Adviser provides investment advisory services through its own managed
portfolio, namely
Insigneo MultiAsset Portfolios (“I-maps”), on a discretionary basis only. With I-maps, the
Adviser has a set strategy depending on the client’s investment objective. An Investment
Committee dedicated to I-maps selects securities appropriate for clients’ risk profile which
are held directly in the clients’ account(s). The Investment Committee meets regularly to
monitor performance of the modeled portfolios and discuss rebalancing and overall economic
conditions.
3. Third-Party Managers
Based upon the stated investment objectives of the client, the Adviser may recommend to
certain clients that they authorize the active discretionary management of a portion of
their assets by certain investment managers that are not affiliated with Adviser. Adviser
shall continue to render services to the client and, in addition, monitor and review the
performance of the third-party manager and the performance of the client’s accounts that are
being managed. From time-to-time, Adviser may also recommend affiliated investment
managers to certain clients based on their investment objectives, guidelines, and risk
profiles.
4. Consulting Services
The Adviser also provides portfolio consulting services where the client will retain the
ultimate responsibility for the implementation of any or all of the recommendations.
Portfolio consulting assets are considered assets under advisement and are not included
in our firm’s regulatory assets under management. Account supervision is guided by
conversations with the client, desired targets, as well as other individual considerations,
such as taxes. Clients can impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain
securities, types of securities, or industry sectors. Our consulting services include
investigating, analyzing, structuring, and negotiating potential investments, reporting and
consolidating information of accounts held across one or more custodians, as well as
monitoring the performance of investments and advising clients as to the disposition of
investment opportunities. The Adviser can also provide administrative services, and/or act
as a liaison between the client and other professionals (such as lawyers, accountants, and
property managers, among others). Consulting Services provided and the role of the
Adviser may vary for each client and are subject to the needs of each client. The consulting
service agreement for each client will typically disclose how the Adviser will be servicing
each client.
Other Services

partnership interests in the Partnership (the “Interests”) pursuant to the Private Offering

Assets under Management

on a discretionary basis, and $823,527,699 managed on a non-discretionary basis, for
total assets under management (“AUM”) of $3,067,400,975. In addition, IAS maintains assets
under advisement of $374,564,053 which correspond primarily to consulting services not

Wrap Program
IAS currently maintains a Wrap Fee Program. Wrap fee programs are inclusive of most
transaction costs and fees. IAS’ wrap program, for accounts managed on a discretionary or
non-discretionary basis, includes certain transaction execution and/or clearing fees, but
excludes processing and service-related fees assessed by its affiliate broker-dealer at pre-
established rates per transaction and security type. IAS will receive the differential of the
Wrap fee minus brokerage costs. There is no difference in the investment process based on
the fee program selected by the client.
