IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE INFORMATION
This website ("Website") is a publication of Bowen Financial Services, LLC ("BFS"), which is a state registered investment adviser with a primary business location in Virginia. Registration as an investment adviser is not an endorsement by securities regulators and does not imply that BFS has attained a certain level of skill, training, or ability. This Website is limited to the dissemination of general information pertaining to BFS's advisory services, together with access to additional financial planning and investment-related information, publications, and links. The publication of this Website should not be construed by any client or prospective client as BFS's solicitation to effect, or attempt to effect transactions in securities, or the rendering of personalized investment advice over the Internet. Each user of this Website ("User") is encouraged to obtain a copy of BFS's current Form ADV Part 2A discussing BFS's business operations, services, fees, and applicable conflicts of interest, which is available from BFS upon request and by searching for Bowen Financial Services, LLC at the following link: https://www.adviserinfo.sec.gov/. All materials contained in this Website are protected by United States copyright law and may not be reproduced, distributed, transmitted, displayed, published, or broadcast without the prior written permission of BFS. Users may not alter or remove any trademark, copyright or other notice from copies of the content. Any hyperlinks on this Website are provided as a convenience. BFS does not make any representations or warranties as to the accuracy, timeliness, suitability, completeness, or relevance of any information prepared by any unaffiliated third party, whether linked to the Website or incorporated herein, and takes no responsibility for the same. All such information is provided solely for convenience, educational, and informational purposes only, and all Users are guided accordingly. Third-party sites that are directly or indirectly linked to this Website may collect information, including personal information relating to Users' online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. BFS does not control a third-party's collection or use of personal information or tracking technologies. To the extent that any User accesses any economic calculator or similar interactive device contained within or linked to the Website, the User acknowledges and understands that the information resulting from the use of any such calculator/device, is not, and should not be construed, as the receipt of, or a substitute for, personalized individual advice from BFS, or from any other investment professional.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Different types of investments involve varying degrees of risk, and there can be no assurance that the future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy (including those undertaken or recommended by BFS), will be profitable or equal any historical performance level. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. Investment strategies such as asset allocation, diversification, and rebalancing do not assure or guarantee better performance and cannot eliminate the risk of investment losses. There is no guarantee that a portfolio employing these or any other strategy will outperform a portfolio that does not engage in such strategies. Any target referenced on this Website is not a prediction or projection of actual investment results and there can be no assurance that any target will be achieved. Changes in investment strategies, contributions or withdrawals may materially alter the performance of an individual's portfolio. Economic factors, market conditions, and investment strategies will affect the performance of any portfolio and there are no assurances that it will match or outperform any particular benchmark. Projections, forecasts and estimates referenced on the Website are not purely historical in nature and are therefore necessarily speculative and subject to material variation.
Any index performance data appearing or referenced (directly or indirectly) on the Website has been compiled by the respective copyright holders, trademark holders, or publication/distribution right owners of each index. Historical performance results for investment indexes and/or categories are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent actual portfolio performance. The indexes and/or categories generally do not reflect the deduction of transaction and/or custodial charges, or the deduction of an investment-management fee, which would decrease historical performance results. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. BFS makes no warranty, express or implied, for any decision taken by any party in reliance upon such index information.
Certain portions of the Website (e.g., newsletters, articles, videos, audio files, commentaries, indexes, etc.) may contain a discussion of, and/or provide access to BFS's (and those of other investment and non-investment professionals) positions and/or recommendations as of a specific prior date. Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, these discussions may no longer be reflective of current positions or recommendations. While information presented is believed to be factual and up-to-date, BFS does not guarantee its accuracy and it should not be regarded as a complete analysis of the subjects discussed. All expressions of opinion reflect the judgment of the authors as of the date of publication and are subject to change. No User should assume that the publication of any of this material serves as the receipt of, or a substitute for, personalized advice from BFS or from any other investment professional. Users should not use any Website content as the sole basis for any investment, financial planning, tax, legal or other decisions. Rather, a professional adviser should be consulted and/or independent due diligence should be conducted before implementing any of the options referenced in the Website content. BFS is neither a law firm nor an accounting firm. The tax and estate planning information provided is general in nature. It is provided for informational purposes only, and should not be construed as legal or tax advice. Users, clients, and prospective clients should consult an attorney or tax professional regarding their specific legal or tax situation.
Except as prohibited by law, and as a condition precedent to accessing this Website, each User agrees to release and hold harmless BFS, its members, managers, officers, directors, owners, employees, agents, and affiliates from any and all adverse consequences resulting from any actions or omissions related to this Website that are independent of receiving personalized individual advice from BFS. The preceding sentence shall not limit or waive any applicable User rights under federal or state law, including securities laws and fiduciary obligations that cannot be limited or waived.
PRESENTATION AND INFORMATION DISCLOSURES
All presentations and informational articles are not offers or solicitations to buy or sell securities. The information contained in the presentations has been compiled from third party sources and is believed to be reliable; however its accuracy is not guaranteed and should not be relied upon in any way, whatsoever. Presentations may not be construed as investment advice and do not give investment recommendations. Any opinions included in this website and its presentations constitute the judgment of BFS as of the date of the presentation, and are subject to change without notice.
Any indices referenced are for illustrative purposes only. Keep in mind that individuals cannot invest directly in any index, and index performance does not include transaction costs or other fees, which will affect actual investment performance. Individual investor's results will vary. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Additional information, including management fees and expenses, is provided on BFS's Form ADV Part 2, which is available upon request. As with any investment strategy, there is potential for profit as well as the possibility of loss. BFS does not guarantee any minimum level of investment performance or the success of any portfolio or investment strategy. All investments involve risk (the amount of which may vary significantly) and investment recommendations will not always be profitable. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's portfolio may be worth more or less than its original cost at any given time. The underlying holdings of any presented portfolio are not federally or FDIC-insured and are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed by, any financial institution. Past performance does not guarantee future results.4

Through this policy and its underlying procedures, BFS attempts to secure the confidentiality of customer records and information and protect against anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of customer records and information.
It is the policy of BFS to restrict access to all current and former clients' information (i.e., information and records pertaining to personal background, investment objectives, financial situation, tax information/returns, investment holdings, account numbers, account balances, etc.) to those employees and affiliated/non affiliated entities who need to know that information in order to provide products or services in furtherance of the client's engagement of BFS.

The disclosure of information contained in any document completed by the client for processing and/or transmittal by BFS to facilitate the commencement/continuation/termination of a business relationship between the client and/or between BFS and a nonaffiliated third party service provider (i.e., broker-dealer, investment adviser, account custodian, record keeper, insurance company, etc.), including, but not limited to, information contained in any document completed and/or executed by the client in furtherance of the client's engagement of BFS (i.e., advisory agreement, client information form, etc.), shall be deemed as having been automatically authorized by the client with respect to the corresponding nonaffiliated third party service provider.
BFS permits only authorized employees and affiliates who have signed a copy of BFS's Privacy Policy to have access to client information. Employees violating BFS's Privacy Policy will be subject to BFS's disciplinary process.
