INDEPENDENCE AND OBJECTIVITY You want to be sure that your advisor always works in your best interest. As independent fiduciaries, we have always sought to eliminate conflicts from outside businesses or ownership entanglements. Adherence to this principle has allowed us to provide both fiduciary and non-fiduciary services solely based on client preferences and needs. COMMITMENT TO REINVEST IN OUR BUSINESS You deserve the very best from an advisor. By continuously reinvesting in our people, processes and technology, we have added value to our client relationships while building and scaling our service capabilities and platform. Making those upgrades and improvements has been baked into our culture since the beginning. Investing in technology has enhanced our ability to drive service improvements and has provided our colleagues the resources to shine and put our collective strengths to work on your behalf.

Sheridan Road has long been recognized as a thought leader in institutional retirement consulting and wealth management. We ve committed ourselves to championing best practices and standards by participating on industry advisory boards and committees and by being highly visible advocates at major industry conferences. The value of that knowledge accrues directly to the benefit of our clients.
THE HEART OF IT ALL: A POSITIVE, INCLUSIVE AND FORWARD- LOOKING CULTURE. Preserving and building on our friendly, team-oriented culture is not only a key component of our business model and strategy it is why our clients want to work with us. Since our founding, we ve been interested in improving the lives of clients, team members and people in our communities. To give our clients our very best, we have to feel good about what we do. That s why we have long advocated for and practiced continuous collaboration and training across all areas of the firm. To support our value of diversity and inclusivity, we have maintained a strong track record of promoting leaders from within while recruiting the best talent in the country. Finally, we have connected with and championed our communities by giving back in myriad ways. CHOOSE YOUR DAY (OF GIVING) In the spirit of Sheridan Road s Choose Your Day mission, we recently launched Choose Your Day (of Giving) as a way for our employees to give back to the communities in which we live. Each of our regional offices chooses local service projects based on a critical need that they see within their communities, from rebuilding homes to cleaning up parks, from volunteering at local food shelters to beautifying shorelines to name just a few. On Choose Your Day (of Giving), everyone at Sheridan Road is out of the office, pitching in at their chosen project.
