About

Scratch Capital serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients, offering discretionary asset management, financial planning, and retirement plan services, including acting as an ERISA 3(38) investment manager. The firm also manages held‑away defined‑contribution participant accounts through a third‑party platform and includes ongoing financial planning for clients meeting its asset threshold.

The firm typically operates with full discretionary trading authority and may appoint sub‑advisors to manage portions of client portfolios, applying a mix of fundamental, technical, charting and cyclical analysis and conducting portfolio reviews at least quarterly. For held‑away accounts the firm connects client accounts to a third‑party platform that allows review and rebalancing without Scratch Capital maintaining custody, and clients receive custodial statements and periodic performance reporting.

A distinctive element in the brochure is the firm’s affiliation with an in‑house tax/accounting practice: the managing member owns a tax/accounting services company and allocates a small portion of time to that activity, with disclosures and client choice intended to mitigate conflicts. Coupled with its ERISA 3(38) plan capabilities and use of a held‑away participant account platform, this combination of investment management, plan fiduciary services, and affiliated accounting support is less common among comparable team firms.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
