Cabot Wealth Management Inc is registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Our Central Index Key (CIK) is 1016683. Registration with the SEC does not imply that the SEC has approved or endorsed Cabot Wealth, our services, or our investment products. Registration as an investment adviser merely indicates that we have met the regulatory requirements to conduct business as an investment adviser in the United States.
As an SEC-registered investment adviser, we are subject to the provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the rules promulgated thereunder, and the regulations and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are examined periodically by the SEC or its designated examination authority to assess our compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Our principal office is located at 216 Essex St, Salem, MA 01970, USA. We also maintain a branch office at 5th St, Sandown, Sandton, 2031, South Africa. Additional information about our firm is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov through the Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) system.
As required by SEC regulations, Cabot Wealth Management Inc files Form ADV with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Form ADV is the uniform registration and disclosure document used by investment advisers and consists of two parts:
Form ADV Part 1 provides information about the adviser's business, ownership, clients, employees, business practices, affiliations, and any disciplinary events. Part 1 is primarily used by regulators for registration and examination purposes and is available through the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure system at adviserinfo.sec.gov.
Form ADV Part 2, also known as the "Brochure," provides a narrative description of the adviser's business practices, fees, services, investment strategies, conflicts of interest, and disciplinary information. This document is designed to help clients and prospective clients make informed decisions about hiring Cabot Wealth as their investment adviser.
We are required to deliver our Brochure to each prospective client before or at the time of entering into an advisory agreement. Existing clients receive a summary of material changes annually, along with an offer to provide the complete updated Brochure. You may request a copy of our current Form ADV Part 2 Brochure at any time by contacting our office at +1 (978) 745-1700 or by email at info@cabotwealthmgtinc.com.
In compliance with SEC Rule 204-3, we also provide a Form CRS (Client Relationship Summary), a brief summary of our services, fees, conflicts of interest, and disciplinary history. Form CRS is designed to help retail investors make informed decisions about whether to engage our services. A copy of our Form CRS is available upon request and is also accessible through the SEC's IAPD system.
As an SEC-registered investment adviser, Cabot Wealth Management Inc owes a fiduciary duty to each of its advisory clients. This fiduciary duty is the highest standard of care recognized under the law and requires us to:
Our fiduciary duty is not merely a regulatory obligation — it is the foundation of our firm's culture and values. We take this responsibility seriously and are committed to maintaining the trust our clients place in us.
Cabot Wealth Management Inc offers various fee arrangements depending on the type of service provided and the client's individual circumstances. Our fee structures are fully disclosed in our Form ADV Part 2 Brochure. The following is a summary:
For our investment management services, we charge a fee based on a percentage of the assets under our management. The annual fee is calculated as a percentage of the market value of your account and is typically deducted quarterly in advance from your account. Our standard asset-based fee schedule is as follows:
The specific fee rate applicable to your account will be set forth in your advisory agreement. Fees may vary based on the complexity of your financial situation, the types of accounts managed, and the services included.
For financial planning engagements, we may charge a fixed fee based on the scope and complexity of the planning project. Fixed fees are quoted in advance and are payable as specified in the engagement letter or advisory agreement.
For consulting and ad-hoc advisory services, we may charge an hourly rate. Our standard hourly rates range from $250 to $500 per hour, depending on the nature and complexity of the services provided and the seniority of the professional involved.
In addition to our advisory fees, you may incur other costs in connection with the management of your account, including but not limited to:
We do not receive any portion of these third-party fees, and they are separate from and in addition to our advisory fees.
As required by SEC Regulation Best Interest and our fiduciary obligations, we disclose the following potential conflicts of interest that may exist in our advisory relationship:
Cabot Wealth Management Inc is a fee-only investment adviser. We do not receive commissions, trailing fees, revenue sharing, or other transaction-based compensation from the sale of investment products. Our compensation is derived solely from the advisory fees paid by our clients. This fee-only model is designed to minimize conflicts of interest by aligning our financial interests with those of our clients — when your portfolio grows, our fee revenue increases proportionally.
Because our investment management fees are based on a percentage of assets under management, we have a financial incentive to encourage you to consolidate assets under our management and to discourage withdrawals. We mitigate this conflict by: (1) recommending account consolidation only when it is in your best interest; (2) providing objective advice on withdrawals and distributions; and (3) including all relevant information in our Form ADV Part 2 Brochure.
From time to time, we may enter into referral arrangements with other professionals (such as attorneys, accountants, or insurance agents) whereby we refer clients to them or they refer clients to us. Unless otherwise disclosed, we do not receive compensation for referrals made to third-party professionals, and we do not pay for referrals received from third parties. Any referral arrangement that involves compensation will be disclosed to you in writing prior to your engagement of the referred professional.
We do not offer proprietary investment products. Our investment recommendations are based on publicly available securities and investment vehicles selected through our independent research and due diligence process. We have no financial incentive to recommend any particular investment product over another.
We do not engage in principal transactions (buying securities from or selling securities to you from our own account) or agency cross transactions (acting as broker for both buyer and seller in the same transaction). If this policy changes, we will provide advance written disclosure and obtain your consent as required by the Investment Advisers Act.
Cabot Wealth Management Inc does not maintain physical custody of client assets. Your assets are held at qualified custodians, such as Charles Schwab & Co., Fidelity Investments, or other SEC-registered broker-dealers and custodians. We maintain limited trading authority only — we can buy and sell securities on your behalf, but we cannot withdraw funds or securities from your account.
As required by SEC Rule 206(4)-2 (the Custody Rule), our qualified custodians send account statements directly to you at least quarterly. We strongly encourage you to carefully review all custodial statements and compare them with any reports you receive from us. If you notice any discrepancies, please contact us immediately.
Our advisory fees are deducted directly from your custodial account only with your written authorization. Fee deductions appear on your custodial statement, providing an additional layer of transparency and oversight.
Periodically, we may be deemed to have "constructive custody" of client assets if we receive certain types of authority (such as the ability to withdraw fees). In such cases, we comply with all requirements of the Custody Rule, including the engagement of an independent public accountant to conduct a surprise examination of client assets.
When we present performance data, we adhere to the following standards and disclosures:
All investments involve risk, including the possible loss of principal. Before engaging our services, you should understand the material risks associated with investing, which include but are not limited to:
The value of investments may decline due to broad market movements, economic conditions, geopolitical events, or changes in investor sentiment. Market risk affects all securities and cannot be eliminated through diversification alone.
Fixed-income securities and bond funds are subject to interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, the value of existing bonds and fixed-income investments typically declines. Longer-duration bonds are generally more sensitive to interest rate changes than shorter-duration bonds.
Corporate bonds, municipal bonds, and other debt instruments are subject to the risk that the issuer may default on interest payments or principal repayment. Lower-rated securities (high-yield or "junk" bonds) carry higher credit risk than investment-grade securities.
The purchasing power of your investments may decline over time if the rate of inflation exceeds the rate of return on your investments. This is particularly relevant for conservative investments such as cash equivalents and short-term bonds.
Certain investments, including alternative investments, private equity, real estate, and restricted securities, may be illiquid or difficult to sell quickly at a fair price. You may not be able to access your investment when needed, or you may be forced to sell at a significant discount.
Investments denominated in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that changes in exchange rates may reduce the value of your investment when converted back to U.S. dollars. This risk applies to international equity and bond funds, as well as direct investments in foreign securities.
Portfolios that are concentrated in a particular sector, industry, geographic region, or asset class may experience greater volatility and potential loss than diversified portfolios. While we generally recommend diversification, certain investment strategies may involve a degree of concentration.
Alternative investments — including hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, real estate, and commodities — carry additional risks such as limited transparency, complex fee structures, use of leverage, potential lock-up periods, and less regulatory oversight compared to traditional investments.
Cabot Wealth Management Inc has developed a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) to ensure that our firm can continue to operate and serve our clients in the event of a significant business disruption. Our BCP addresses the following scenarios:
Our BCP is reviewed and tested annually. In the event of a significant business disruption, we will communicate with our clients through email, our website, and telephone to provide updates on our operational status and any changes to how we deliver services.
A summary of our Business Continuity Plan is available upon request. Please contact our Chief Compliance Officer at support@cabotwealthmgtinc.com for more information.
