2 Organizational Structure and Compensation MODULE 1

3 Service Team Structure 1 Example diagram of service team structure.

4 PM and Ops teams managed by COO Service Team Structure 2 Draw a picture of your service team structure. Partner Jr Advisor/SPM Jr PMOps Advisory team managed by investment committee Dedicated CSA to advisor team Service team per partner/producer. [insert page for full org structure]

5 Service Team Structure 3 From day 1 we recognize the need to transfer from a siloed organization to a more collaborative team-based environment with a goal of ensuring clear accountability for the partners across the firm. We believe this structure breaks the silo effect and allows us to share more collective resources. Additionally, this structure will help boost a common culture across the firm. The structure is a combination of service team and departmental structure which allows client responsiveness/attention via the advisory team while increasing team accountability and productivity with centralized/departmental pooled resources with PMs and CSAs. In addition, the new structure provides career pathing for junior employees. Each partner/producer would have a Jr advisor/Sr Portfolio Manager which creates an advisor team. The jr advisors are managed by the investment committee led by Don. This breaks down advisor/producer silos and provides the support Pete requests. Additional resources of CSAs and portfolio managers are overall managed by the COO. Each advisor team would have a dedicated CSA. Portfolio managers are a pooled resource and allocated/utilized as needed to create and manage portfolios, and perform research. Service organization was designed with key objectives in mind, including: -Client retention and development -Consistency in client experience/service delivery -Clear accountability for performance -Contribute to firm results -Increase productivity to serve: Current large base of clients Growing base of clients Provide an explanation of your service team structure.

6 Compensation Benchmarking 4 Determine base compensation for three employees in your briefing book. Complete the task using the next two pages. PositionSalaryBonusTotal Your Lowest-Paid Employee 125,3593,641125,000 Your Highest-Paid Employee 150,4854,515155,000 Mid-range137,9224,078142,000 Benchmark Median 81,8022,19884,000 Benchmark Third Quartile 100,00037,633137,633 See Appendix A for position compensation information Source: 2013 InvestmentNews/Moss Adams Comp Study This is for Portfolio Manager

7 Compensation Benchmarking 5 Position: Portfolio Manager Findings: Base salary very high and the bonus is low compared with benchmark data. In addition, we found discrepancies between PMs under each partner/advisor. Partners met and agreed to have consistency with salary structure in effort to promote fairness and collaboration across the teams. Roger uncomfortable Actions to take: -Salary based off production with a bonus component. -Contemplate salary /bonus incentive to adjust to closer to marker. -Consider lower base salaries and higher bonus – firm-wide -Over a 2year period, we plan on lowering salaries while increasing the incentive structure to bring our compensation more inline with the market. -Consider the option of pre-pay a portion of the bonus to ease transition. -Goal is to maintain total comp, just adjust structure. -Lowers P&L obligation and allows flexibility based on firm performance -Standardize compensation based on job, and benchmarking and Moss Adams data -Align with performance reviews as we increase the bonus structure. -Better align compensation to firm performance -COO becomes pay normalizer. Partners met to discuss with Rodger PM compensation issue. Came to consensus that the new compensation plan (lower salary/higher bonus) will allow control of pay based on performance. What changes, if any, will you make to compensation?

8 Staff Selection and Performance Management MODULE 2
