The firm offers smarttactical™ Strategies with either our proprietary macrocast™ or microcast™ risk overlays,
tax-efficient tactical, actively managed, and asset allocation strategies. Our clients can blend these offerings
allowing the final solution to be custom-tailored to their or their client’s needs.
• Tactical Solutions - Our smarttactical™ Strategies enable a portfolio to be more adaptive to changing
market environments. These strategies can invest in any exchange traded asset class and are not
restricted by market cap, sector, or geographic location. They may also hold a substantial fixed income
or cash position based upon our macrocast™ or microcast™ risk indicators.
• Active Solutions - Actively managed strategies seeking long-term growth of capital. Designed to remain
fully invested throughout the economic cycle, weathering market volatility, and generating alpha through
stock selection.

solutions designed to be used in taxable accounts. The hybrid solution seeks to capture the risk
reduction benefits of tactical management in a tax-efficient manner.
• Passive Solutions - Passive by nature, strategic by design—our asset allocation solutions offer a simple
way to build a broadly diversified core portfolio. Available in allocation mixes spanning the target risk
spectrum, our passive strategies establish a client's long-term base portfolio using low-cost, passive ETF
products. While strategic adjustments are made on a year-to-year basis, these portfolios are designed to
remain invested throughout the economic cycle and market fluctuations. Providing broad exposure to
global equity, fixed income, and real estate markets, our passive solutions can be used as a standalone
solution or in conjunction with our other strategies.
Corbett Road believes the foundation of long-term investing success is proper risk management that goes
beyond the diversification of traditional asset allocation. Through the combination of passive, active, tactical,
and hybrid strategies, the Firm delivers a comprehensive solution that strives to be proactive, adaptive, and
responsive to changes in the market environment. This blended solution is tailored to fit the client’s risk profile,
improving adherence to the Advisor’s guidance, and assisting the client in achieving their financial goals.
STRATEGY DESCRIPTIONS
TACTICAL SOLUTIONS - MACROCAST™ (MX)
• Opportunity MX
Investment Objective
The Opportunity MX Strategy is a tactical solution that seeks long-term growth of capital and attempts
to mitigate drawdowns during economic downturns by reducing the strategy’s equity exposure.
Investment Strategy
This strategy targets between 35-40 individual equity positions, though it may invest in ETF’s or other
exchange traded assets when needed. It can invest in any exchange traded asset class and is not
restricted by market cap, sector, or geographic location. Based upon macrocast™ indicators, this
strategy may hold a substantial fixed income or cash position as broader macroeconomic conditions
deteriorate and are deemed unfavorable.
The Opportunity MX Strategy takes a dual-pronged approach to research and investment. The top-down
macro analysis is driven by CRCM's proprietary risk model, macrocast™, which determines the strategy's
equity allocation based on prevailing economic conditions. A deeper assessment of the market cycle
drives equity positioning, and individual investments are selected using a bottom-up, fundamental
approach. Through our dual approach, economic events are recognized for their potential to affect
overall market returns while a deeper analysis of individual investments aims to incrementally add to
potential returns.
• Dynamic MX
Investment Objective
The CRCM Dynamic MX Strategy is a tactical solution that seeks long-term growth of capital and attempts
to mitigate drawdowns during economic downturns by reducing the strategy’s equity exposure. The
strategy invests exclusively in exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Investment Strategy
This strategy targets between 17-20 ETF positions and utilizes a core/satellite approach to investing. It can
invest in any exchange-traded fund (ETF), and it primarily invests in broad market index ETFs, sector- and
industry-specific ETFs, as well as factor and style focused ETFs. Based upon macrocast™ indicators, this
strategy may hold a substantial fixed income or cash position as broader macroeconomic conditions
deteriorate and are deemed unfavorable.
The Dynamic MX Strategy is a flexible ETF strategy that takes a top-down approach to investing. The top-
down macro analysis is driven by CRCM's proprietary risk model, macrocast™, which determines the
strategy's equity allocation based on prevailing economic conditions. Intra-cycle analysis drives individual
investments. Certain styles, factors and industries outperform at different stages of the market cycle, and
Dynamic MX seeks to capitalize on these trends by making active sector bets and concentrated satellite
investments in factor and industry-focused ETFs.
• Core Demand MX
Investment Objective
The Core Demand MX Strategy is a tactical solution that seeks long-term growth of capital and attempts
to mitigate drawdowns during economic downturns by reducing the strategy’s equity exposure.
Investment Strategy
This strategy targets between 35-40 individual equity positions. It can invest in any exchange traded asset
class and is not restricted by market cap, sector, or geographic location. Based upon macrocast™
indicators, this strategy may hold a substantial fixed income or cash position as broader macroeconomic
conditions deteriorate and are deemed unfavorable.
The Core Demand MX Strategy takes a dual-pronged approach to research and investment. The top-down
macro analysis is driven by CRCM's proprietary risk model, macrocast™, which determines the strategy's
equity allocation based on prevailing economic conditions. Individual investments are selected using a
bottom-up, fundamental approach that leverages environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data to
identify sustainable businesses.
By utilizing an ESG filter, the strategy seeks to identify financially-material environmental, social, and
governance issues that may impact corporate performance. We subscribe to an independent third-party
ESG data firm that provides company ESG ratings for equity securities. In addition to other factors, ESG
ratings are incorporated into the strategy’s investment framework as a means of identifying sustainable
businesses. ESG ratings affect the investment selection process and the strategy’s sell discipline, but they
are not the sole consideration. The ESG ratings used are absolute measures of risk that measure a
company's exposure to industry-specific material ESG risks and how well the company is managing those
risks. The ESG filter allows the Core Demand MX Strategy to invest in any company with a rating of
negligible to medium ESG risk severity, as defined by the data provider. We may buy issuers from a poorly
ranking ESG sector, such as oil and gas production, if the issuer's rating falls within the previously defined
range of eligible scores.

HYBRID SOLUTIONS

targeted allocation to equities and fixed income investments.

The foundation of HELIX is the strategy's investment in actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs)
that take a tactical approach to investing. The core allocation to tactical ETFs is complemented by 8-15
broadly diversified ETFs with target allocations determined by the risk tolerance of the individual investor.
The HELIX Strategy combines strategic asset allocation with tactical risk management to create a
diversified client solution. Specifically designed for taxable accounts, the HELIX series
seeks to capture the risk reduction benefits of tactical management in a tax-efficient manner.
• Buffered Outcome Strategies
Buffered Outcome Strategies are constructed using a combination of multiple Buffered Exchange Traded
Funds (ETFs). These strategies are designed to offer a different approach to risk management by enabling
investors to participate in the growth potential of equity markets up to a stated cap, with a specific
downside buffer.
Buffered ETFs are constructed with an actively managed basket of FLEX Options. FLEX Options allow for
customized strike prices, underlying reference assets, and expiration dates. Having strike prices that
expire on a designated date forms an outcome period. The combination of these options coming together
results in the reference asset (or index) exposure, the buffer, and the cap of a Buffered ETF.
PASSIVE SOLUTIONS
• MyPath Asset Allocation PortfoliosTM (MAAP)
Investment Strategy
myPath Asset Allocation PortfoliosTM (MAAP) are passive, strategic asset allocation solutions focused on
risk diversification. By investing in broad-based, passively managed exchange traded funds (ETFs), these
portfolios aim to balance risk across major asset classes to reduce variability in returns.
Each portfolio’s level of risk is embedded in the corresponding targeted allocation. Allocation percentages,
strategic adjustments, and rebalances of the portfolios are guided by the firm’s market outlook and the
variance of individual positions from their targeted allocations.
CRCM offers three MAAP strategies for clients to choose from:
o MAAP Traditional - provides a well-diversified asset allocation that can be used in any type of
account.
o MAAP Dividend - provides a well-diversified asset allocation solution that focuses on income
producing equity ETFs.
o MAAP Tax-Aware - provides a well-diversified asset allocation solution that utilizes municipal
bond ETFs in an effort to produce a more tax-aware result.
Clients may impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities so long as the restrictions
do not fundamentally alter the overall strategy. CRCM in its sole discretion can determine whether to accept
any client specific restrictions.
