Brochure Summary

Overview

A. Firm Information The Institute of Financial Wellness, LLC (“IFW” or the “Advisor”) has been registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) since January 2022. The Adviser is organized as a Limited Liability Company (LLC) under the laws of the State of Florida. IFW was founded in July 2018 and is owned and operated by Erik C. Sussman (Managing Member, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Compliance Officer) and Darren Sussman (Managing Member and President). This Disclosure Brochure provides information regarding the qualifications, business practices, and the advisory services provided by IFW. B. Advisory Services Offered IFW assists individuals (“Investors”) to determine their financial needs and objectives by offering educational materials on financial topics, providing a personalized Retirement Roadmap suggesting future income requirements and referring them to other financial professionals, including registered investment advisory firms that provide investment management services (“RIAs”). IFW does not manage investment assets, select investment strategies, monitor the performance of referred investment

advisers or make changes to Investor accounts. Accordingly, IFW acts only as a solicitor in its investment advisory services. IFW conducts due diligence on each RIA and respective Investment Advisor Representative (“IAR”) that seeks to enter into a solicitor agreement with IFW by reviewing their licensing status, their professional experience, qualifications, areas of expertise and location. Participants in IFW’s referral network select from a variety of programs offering different levels of administrative services and financial software licensing provided by IFW at different price points. Investors will be provided with a copy of the recommended RIA/IARs Form ADV Part 2, and can independently obtain investment advisory services from the referral RIA/IARs directly, or from others of the Investor’s choice. C. Client Account Management IFW does not manage Investor assets and therefore has no disclosures in regards to this item. D. Wrap Fee Programs IFW does not manage or place Investor assets into a wrap fee program. E.
