About

Sound Financial Investment Management, LLC provides portfolio management, financial planning, pension consulting and participant education, and also offers educational seminars for clients and plan participants. The firm serves individuals, high‑net‑worth individuals, and ERISA retirement plan participants and documents each client’s objectives and constraints in a written Investment Policy Statement.

The firm applies fundamental and technical analysis and employs both long‑term and short‑term trading strategies, with accounts reviewed at least quarterly and financial plans delivered on a one‑time basis unless additional work is requested. Rather than holding custody of assets directly, the firm refers client assets to third‑party advisers (including Matson Money, AssetMark and SEI), conducts due diligence and ongoing performance reviews, and receives fee shares from those relationships; it also does not accept discretionary trading authority over client accounts.

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include an affiliation with an insurance agency and licensed representatives who may sell commissionable insurance and brokerage products, a conflict the firm notes and documents for clients. The firm also requires use of its recommended custodians, provides retirement plan participant education as a formal service, and limits ongoing financial reporting from the adviser to custodian statements unless clients pay for additional plan updates.
