Halo Investment Services, LLC (“Halo” or the “firm”) is an Illinois limited liability company. The
firm is owned by Halo Investing, Inc. Halo became registered as an investment adviser in 2023.
B. Advisory Services Offered
Halo Protected Investments TAMP
Halo shall make the Turnkey Asset Management Program (“TAMP”) platform and related
services (“Platform Services”) available to the client facing adviser (“Advisor”) through the
Platform web application designated by Halo. An Advisor and its representatives may use the
Platform Services to access information regarding their investment advisory accounts
(“Accounts”) and to manage Advisor Accounts on a discretionary basis by selecting one or more
strategies (“Strategy” or “Strategies“) managed by sub-advisers available on the Platform
(subject to the terms and conditions of the Platform agreement). Such Platform Services are
confined to structured note securities and related strategies. Platform Services include:
▪ Providing access to the Platform wherein Advisors will be able to review sub-advisers and
their strategies
▪ Providing post-trade reporting information for notes generated for their accounts.
▪ Providing sub-advisers with access to price discovery for note issuing banks, pre-trade
analytics on note structuring and ability to direct trade execution on such notes.
▪ Providing sub-advisers, either directly or through a third-party provider, access to
modeling of structured notes within asset allocations for management of Advisor Client
Accounts.
▪ Conducting initial and ongoing due diligence on sub-advisers that are made available
through the Platform.
Halo has the authority to engage or terminate a sub-adviser with respect to any Advisor Client
that sub-adviser has accepted; however, such authority is limited to (a) effecting such
engagement or termination upon the Adviser’s direction to Halo through the Platform; (b)
Halo’s authority to terminate a sub-adviser from the Program in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the sub-advisory agreement; and (c) Halo’s authority to terminate its advisory
agreement with the Advisory and/or Client Account, in accordance with the terms and
conditions thereof.
Upon the initial opening of an account to be managed by a sub-adviser for a particular Client
Account, Halo shall also deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Advisor a copy of Halo’s
disclosure documents (ADV 2A & 2B) and the sub-adviser’s current Form ADV, Part 2A, Form
CRS and privacy notice. On an annual basis thereafter (or more frequently as may be separately
agreed), Halo shall deliver to Advisor, for delivery to each Client, the updated version of Halo’s

disclosure documents (ADV 2A & 2B) and the sub-adviser’s Form ADV, Part 2A, and Form CRS as

Sub-Adviser Strategies
Halo will make available through the Platform various strategies, as described in Item 8 of this
brochure, managed by Halo as a sub-adviser or by non-affiliate third-party sub-advisers.
Advisor, and neither Halo nor the sub-adviser, shall be solely responsible for determining
whether a particular Strategy is suitable and appropriate for each end client (“Client”) based on
the Client’s investment objectives and financial circumstances and selecting the Strategy for
each Client. Advisor is responsible for promptly notifying Halo through the Platform of any
changes to the selection of a Strategy for any Account or of any other information that may
affect a sub-adviser’s management of the Account. Halo and sub-advisers will not bear any
responsibility for the selection of any Strategy or for investment management decisions or other
actions taken on the basis of any incomplete, misleading, or incorrect information relating to
any Client or Account.
The sub-adviser will provide discretionary investment management services with respect to that
portion of each Client’s Account that is invested in the Strategy, and will invest and reinvest such
assets in accordance with the applicable Strategy without the prior approval or consent of
Advisor or Client.
A Strategy selected for a Client’s Account may be subject to an initial minimum investment
amount. See sub-adviser(s) ADV Part 2A and related disclosure material.
C. Client-Tailored Services and Client-Imposed Restrictions
Each Client’s Account will be managed on the basis of the strategy selected by the Client and/or
Client’s Advisor and managed by the applicable sub-adviser.

Halo does not participate in wrap fee programs, where brokerage commissions and transaction
costs are included in the asset-based fee charged to the client.
