Fiduciary Responsibility As an Independent Registered Investment Advisor, we adhere to the highest fiduciary standard of care, not just because it is a legal obligation, but because it represents the foundation of our commitment to serving the best interests of our clients. Our Institutional Services team, holding the Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF®) and Accredited Investment Fiduciary Analyst® (AIFA®) designations, exemplifies this commitment through a disciplined, service-oriented approach to fiduciary responsibilities.

Key Elements of Our Fiduciary Review Process: Investment Committee (IC) Formation and Engagement The Investment Committee is pivotal to the prudent management of your retirement plan. Recognizing the significance of this role, we assist in forming and engaging your IC, offering guidance to uphold fiduciary best practices, and conducting regular reviews to manage compliance and reduce potential liabilities.

Effective Plan Design Each qualified plan should reflect the unique needs of both the business and its employees. We collaborate with you to design a dynamic plan that aligns with your objectives, to enhance both retirement outcomes and employee engagement.

As a best practice, a Fiduciary Review is recommended every three years*

Clearwater Capital Partners Fiduciary Excellence

Investment Policy Statement (IPS) A robust IPS is essential for disciplined plan management. It outlines the parameters and objectives for monitoring the plan’s investment options. We help ensure the IPS is not only well-crafted but is also adhered to, fostering consistent and prudent plan oversight.

Investment Due Diligence Ongoing evaluation of the plan’s investment options is crucial. We support you in assessing the investments against benchmarks and peer averages, documenting this process to maintain alignment with the IPS and uphold fiduciary standards.

Vendor and Cost Oversite Regular review and benchmarking of plan costs and services is vital to ensure they are competitive and provide value. As a co-fiduciary we act as your liaison with plan providers, facilitating smooth operations and efficient management.

Participant Education & Experience Educating plan sponsors and participants is fundamental to the success of any retirement plan. Our team, including advisors and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) professionals, provides education to help participants understand the importance of consistent and strategic planning for their financial future.

Comprehensive Plan Success Ensuring your plan is aligned for long-term success starts with a well-defined process for selecting, monitoring, and reviewing your investment lineup.

Open Architecture Our approach provides unlimited access to various investment fund managers, offering flexibility and alignment with your plan’s Investment Policy guidelines. This open framework ensures fiduciaries can evaluate prudent investment options tailored to the plan’s specific needs.

By prioritizing the best interests of plan participants, our fee-only fiduciary approach empowers employees to create personalized asset allocation strategies with open architecture and a focus on transparency, your workforce benefits from investment solutions designed to meet their individual goals.

Share Class Due Diligence Understanding the share class options available in the marketplace is crucial. Our team works closely with you to evaluate these choices and their impact on the long-term retirement savings of your participants. This diligent process underscores our commitment to fiduciary responsibility, guiding the plan’s investment lineup to align with your participants’ best interests.

The Importance of Asset Allocation While savings rates are a critical component of retirement success, asset allocation is equally important.

Allocating investments across a diverse set of asset classes and periodically rebalancing helps your participants manage risk, avoid overconcentration, and benefit from global economic opportunities.

For asset allocation to succeed, it must be aligned with each individual’s goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon. Providing your participants with the tools needed to successfully accomplish this is our priority.

About Clearwater Our Mission Our mission is to transform lives through deep personal relationships and curated wealth solutions, always with the strictest discretion and confidentiality.

Our History Clearwater Capital Partners was founded in 2006 by John Chapman, a seasoned Wall Street professional with over 40 years of experience. After witnessing countless industry pitfalls—conflicts of interest, non-disclosure of material facts, and broken promises—John set out to build something different: a firm rooted in integrity, transparency, and genuine advice.

At Clearwater, we believe investors deserve more than fragmented sales pitches and cookie-cutter solutions. Our approach has always been simple yet powerful—deliver honest, competent advice on the issues that matter most. These principles, which shaped our beginnings, remain the foundation of our success today.

Our firm has thrived thanks to the trust of our clients, growing primarily through referrals. This loyalty is a testament to the relationships we’ve built and the confidence our clients place in us. Today, with a national presence and a dedication to redefining client-first principles, Clearwater Capital Partners continues to excel.

We exist to inspire and empower our clients to live with joy, confidence, and a spirit of abundance.

We Are Right by Your Side Regulators have set a high standard for fiduciaries, yet many decision-makers who oversee their organization’s qualified plan do not recognize the many responsibilities and liabilities they must satisfy. A comprehensive fiduciary review – conducted objectively by qualified experts – can help identify potential deficiencies in the operation and oversight of your retirement plan.

With a comprehensive suite of institutional solutions, diverse investment options, and innovative tools, we’re here to support your business needs and empower your employees to move forward with confidence.
