ADV Part 2A – Firm Brochure Page 5 The Fauser Group, LLC that effective investment management involves consistent communication between the client and advisor. We will then monitor and update the allocations that make up your portfolio. Our investment style typically includes multiple asset classes (stocks, bonds, commodities, real estate). We believe global allocations offer less risk than investing exclusively in your home-country. We have a preference for exchange traded funds and individual issues over mutual funds due to the superior transparency, lower cost, tax efficiency, and portability. Asset Management: As part of our Asset Management service, a portfolio is created, consisting of individual stocks, bonds, exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), options, mutual funds and other public and private securities or investments. The client’s individual investment strategy is tailored to their specific needs and may include some or all of the previously mentioned securities. Portfolios will be designed to meet a particular investment goal, determined to be suitable to the client’s circumstances. Once the appropriate portfolio has been determined, portfolios are continuously and regularly monitored, and if necessary, we periodically rebalance or adjust client accounts under our management, upon the client’s consent or upon written discretionary authority. Financial Planning & Consulting: Our firm provides a variety of standalone financial planning and consulting services to clients for the management of financial resources based upon an analysis of current situation, goals, and objectives. Financial planning services will typically involve preparing a financial plan or rendering a financial consultation for clients based on the

client’s financial goals and objectives. Financial planning services may include:
• Investment Planning/Investment Policy Statements
• Financial Independence/Retirement Planning
• Capital Needs Analysis (Goal Funding)
• Income Tax Planning
• Estate Planning
• Education Planning
• Risk Management (Life and Disability Insurance)
• Employee Benefit and Stock Option Planning
• Tax minimization strategies Written financial plans or financial consultations rendered to clients usually include general recommendations for a course of activity or specific actions to be taken by the clients. Clients are ultimately responsible for the assumptions and personal data upon which The Fauser Group’s projections are based. The financial plan assumptions and reports are primarily a tool to alert clients to certain potential financial outcomes. The reports are not intended to nor do they provide any guarantee about future events including your investment returns. In fact, there is little evidence that economic outcomes can be accurately forecasted. The implementation of the plan is solely the client’s responsibility. Our firm provides clients with a summary of their financial situation, and observations for financial planning engagements. Financial consultations are not typically accompanied by a written summary of observations and recommendations, as the process is less formal than the planning service. Assuming that all the information and documents requested from the client are provided promptly, plans or consultations are typically completed within six (6) months of the client signing a contract with our firm.
