Welcome and thank you for your consideration in attending a Pinnacle Alts Forum. In general, our events are complimentary to Registered Investment Advisers who meet certain qualifications and agree to abide by the following attendance terms. Please read them carefully as they provide the basis for acceptance to the event as well as receiving travel and accommodation-related reimbursement.

Each participant must complete a Pinnacle Alts Forum registration form and questionnaire in its entirety.

Each participant must be currently affiliated with an active state- or SEC-registered RIA. You must have an active registration within IARD’s Public Disclosures Database (https://adviserinfo.sec.gov/).

Airfare Reimbursement Terms
RIAs may be eligible for airfare reimbursement at Pinnacle Alts Forums. Each participating RIA is eligible to receive up to two reimbursements worth up to $500 each to cover airfare and other travel incidentals. To be eligible for an airfare reimbursement:
-
Participant must complete the registration form in its entirety and be accepted before the registration deadline.
-
Plane ticket must be in the name of the participant (e.g., the person who is attending).
-
Participant must have purchased the ticket himself/herself or by one’s own firm. That is, a participant cannot receive a reimbursement unless airfare was a bona fide expense (e.g., already purchased by a third-party, or points or credits were used)
-
Participant must complete airfare reimbursement form and include a copy of ticket purchase within 14 calendar days after conclusion of event.
-
Participant must arrive by Day 1 Introductions (e.g., arrive by 2:00 pm on Day 1).

Once the airfare reimbursement form is received, Pinnacle Alts Forum will send a reimbursement check within five (5) working days after verifying all qualification terms were met. If any of the above terms were not met (and no exception was established before the event), you may not receive a reimbursement. Therefore, it is critical that you contact us if any part of your travel will cause you to deviate from the above terms. For example, you will arrive late or need to leave early.
Other Forms of Travel Reimbursement Terms
Pinnacle Alts Forum recognizes that participants may choose to travel by other means than plane, such as by train or car. We may be able to provide reimbursement for other travel means, provided they are not more expensive than $500 per participant. Such exceptions will be made on a case-by-case basis. To be eligible for other forms of travel reimbursement:
