Green Pastures Wealth Management LLC

Green Pastures Wealth Management LLC is a registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management to individuals, pension/profit‑sharing plans, trusts and business entities, and offers non‑discretionary allocation assistance for clients’ variable life/annuity contracts and employer‑sponsored retirement plans. The firm does not provide comprehensive financial planning or estate‑planning services.

The adviser manages client assets through two proprietary model families: a Defensive Growth program that uses active, dynamic mutual‑fund allocations—including sector index funds, inverse equity index funds, tactical asset allocation, sector rotation and market timing—and an All Weather program that uses strategic, buy‑and‑rebalance, index‑based mutual‑fund allocations. The Defensive Growth models explicitly incorporate a market‑timing component and may generate above‑average turnover, while the All Weather models follow a longer‑term rebalancing discipline.

Noteworthy aspects of the firm include its ability to accept performance‑based advisory arrangements for qualified clients under Rule 205‑3, a relatively uncommon practice among independent advisers of this type, and the firm principal’s role as a licensed insurance producer who sells annuity and other insurance products. The brochure discloses that insurance commissions and ongoing mutual fund 12b‑1 fees may be received, and the firm reports oversight of a substantially larger amount of non‑advisory annuity assets relative to its discretionary advisory assets, which informs its business mix and potential conflicts of interest.
