About
Scottsdale Capital Advisors is a state‑registered investment adviser that primarily operates as a full‑service broker‑dealer, offering brokerage and investment services to retail and institutional clients across listed and OTC equities, fixed income, mutual funds, annuities, and certain private placements. As of November 30, 2025, SCA reported no assets under management on its RIA books.
For advisory engagements SCA offers portfolio management using model portfolios or tailored recommendations based on client goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance, and it primarily employs technical analysis tools (for example, MACD, Bollinger Bands, and Elliott wave techniques) in developing strategies. The firm also may recommend third‑party sub‑advisers to manage portions of client assets and discloses any relationships and fee arrangements with those advisers.
Noteworthy differences from many investment‑manager peers include SCA’s substantial broker‑dealer activity—over 98% of its business is broker‑dealer work—and its affiliation with an affiliated clearing broker, which the firm may use for execution and custody. SCA discloses that its representatives may receive transaction‑based compensation (commissions, 12b‑1 fees) and insurance commissions and that it reports broker‑dealer regulatory events on FINRA BrokerCheck; it also documents its process for selecting and disclosing relationships with other advisers.
