About

CoreCap Advisors serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth and accredited investors), self‑directed retirement plans, and institutional clients such as pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, and corporations. The firm provides discretionary investment and portfolio management, financial planning (flat fee or hourly), a sponsored wrap‑fee program, and access to third‑party sub‑advisors and fee‑sharing sub‑advisor arrangements across custodial platforms at RBC, Charles Schwab, Axos and Fidelity.

CCA’s approach is relationship‑oriented and typically long‑term, with investment decisions focused on mutual funds, ETFs, individual equities and bonds and, where appropriate, limited use of options or short sales after client discussion. The firm selects and monitors sub‑advisors and third‑party asset managers (including access to a TPAM through its parent company), conducts annual oversight of those managers, and offers tax‑efficient asset‑location and opportunistic rebalancing services for held‑away employer plan accounts.

The brochure discloses multiple ownership and affiliate relationships that distinguish CoreCap from many peers: its parent and related entities include a FINRA‑registered broker‑dealer (CoreCap Investments), an insurance marketing organization that shares common ownership, and a recent acquisition by Simplicity Financial Marketing Holdings that provides access to additional third‑party asset management (and fee‑split arrangements). The firm also notes that many investment adviser representatives are licensed insurance agents and that these affiliations and fee‑sharing arrangements create potential conflicts of interest that CCA says it seeks to manage through internal policies.
