Investment Adviser Regulations

Each of Wealthfront Advisers LLC and Wealthfront Strategies LLC is registered and subject to regulation as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), including the antifraud provisions of the Advisers Act and other federal securities laws, and the rules promulgated thereunder. The SEC is authorized to institute civil or administrative proceedings and impose sanctions for violations of the Advisers Act or other federal securities laws against an investment adviser or its supervised persons, ranging from the prohibition of individuals from associating with an investment adviser or other regulated entity, suspension or revocation of registrations, disgorgement, civil money penalties, censures and other sanctions. As investment advisers, Wealthfront Advisers LLC and Wealthfront Strategies LLC each have a fiduciary duty to their respective clients. The SEC has interpreted that fiduciary duty to impose standards, requirements, and limitations on, among other things: investment advice to clients, trading for proprietary, personal and client accounts; allocations of investment opportunities among clients; and execution of transactions. Each of Wealthfront Advisers LLC and Wealthfront Strategies LLC is also subject to additional requirements under the Advisers Act, including, among other things, requirements and restrictions relating to: maintenance of written, effective, and comprehensive compliance policies and procedures; maintenance of extensive books and records; disclosure of information to advisory business clients; restrictions on the types of fees it may charge; custody of client assets; client privacy; and marketing to clients. The SEC has authority to inspect any investment adviser and typically inspects a registered adviser periodically to determine whether the adviser is conducting its activities (i) in accordance with applicable laws, (ii) in a manner that is consistent with disclosures made to clients, and (iii) with adequate systems and procedures to ensure compliance. The failure of Wealthfront Advisers LLC or Wealthfront Strategies LLC to comply with relevant regulation could therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.
