requirements. Company’s web site
is limited to the dissemination of general information pertaining to its
advisory services, together with access to additional investment-related
information, publications, and links.
Accordingly, the publication of Company’s web site on the Internet should not be construed by any consumer
and/or prospective client as Company’s solicitation to effect, or attempt to effect transactions in
securities, or the rendering of personalized investment advice for
compensation, over the Internet. Any
subsequent, direct communication by Company with a prospective client
shall be conducted by a representative that is either registered or qualifies
for an exemption or exclusion from registration in the state where the
prospective client resides. A
copy of Company’s current written disclosure Brochure discussing Company’s

upon written request. Company
does not make any representations or warranties as to the accuracy, timeliness,
suitability, completeness, or relevance of any information prepared by any
unaffiliated third party, whether linked to Company web site or incorporated herein, and takes no responsibility
therefore. All such information is
provided solely for convenience purposes only and all users thereof should be
guided accordingly.
Please remember that different types of investments involve varying degrees of risk, and there can be no assurance that the future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy (including those undertaken or recommended by Company), will be profitable or equal any historical performance level(s).
Certain portions of Company’s web site (i.e. newsletters, articles,
commentaries, etc.) may contain a discussion of, and/or provide access to, Company
(and those of other investment and non-investment professionals) positions
and/or recommendations as of a specific prior date. Due to various factors, including changing
market conditions, such discussion may no longer be reflective of current
position(s) and/or recommendation(s).
Moreover, no client or prospective client should assume that any such
discussion serves as the receipt of, or a substitute for, personalized advice
from Company, or from any other investment professional. Company is neither an attorney nor an
accountant, and no portion of the web site content should be interpreted as legal,
accounting or tax advice.
Please Note: Limitations:
Neither rankings and/or recognitions by unaffiliated rating services,
publications, media, or other organizations, nor the achievement of any
professional designation, certification, degree, or license, or any amount of
prior experience or success, should be construed by a client or prospective
client as a guarantee that he/she will experience a certain level of results if
Smart Portolios, LLC is engaged, or continues to be
engaged, to provide investment advisory services. Rankings published by
magazines, and others, generally base their selections exclusively on
information prepared and/or submitted by the recognized adviser. Rankings are
generally limited to participating advisers (see link as to
participation data/criteria, to the extent applicable). Unless expressly
indicated to the contrary, Smart Portolios, LLC did
not pay a fee to be included on any such ranking. No ranking or recognition
should be construed as a current or past endorsement of Smart Portolios, LLC by any of its clients.
ANY QUESTIONS: Smart Portolios, LLC’s Chief
Compliance Officer remains available to address any questions regarding
rankings and/or recognitions, including the criteria used for any reflected
ranking.
