Relationships & Services

What investment services and advice can you provide me?

While we generally manage co-mingled private funds and SMAs for institutional investors, we also provide investment advisory services to retail investors via separately managed accounts. Investments primarily consist of investment grade and high yield corporate bonds and US Treasury securities as well as publicly-listed stocks. These investments are monitored on a daily basis by the firm’s portfolio managers. For our current accounts, we have full discretionary authority, which means we make all decisions regarding the purchase and sale of securities.

Additional information about our advisory services is located in Items 4 and 7 of our Firm Brochure.

Fees, Costs, Conflicts, and Standard of Conduct

What fees will I pay?

We charge a flat fee based on assets under management and do not charge performance fees. Fees are set on a case-by-case basis with lower fees for larger accounts. Some accounts are assessed a custody fee. CCI does not offer a wrap fee program. You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments over time. Fees and costs will reduce any amount you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.

Additional information about our fees is located in Items 5 and 6 of our Firm Brochure.

Conversation Starters. Ask your financial professional…

  • Help me understand how these fees and costs might affect my investments. If I give you $10,000 to invest, how much will go to fees and costs, and how much will be invested for me?

What are your legal obligations to me when acting as my investment adviser? How else does your firm make money and what conflicts of interest do you have?

When we act as your investment adviser, we must act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. At the same time, the way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the investment advice we provide you. Here are some examples to help you understand what this means. As an investment advisor that charges an asset-based fee, the firm may therefore have an incentive to encourage the retail investor to increase the assets in his or her account.

Additional information about our conflicts of interest is located in Items 6, 11 and 12 of our Firm Brochure.

Conversation Starters. Ask your financial professional…

  • How might conflicts of interest affect me, and how will you address them?
