Firm profile
FINTRXOverview
Providence Capital Advisors, LLC is an independent registered investment adviser formed as an LLC and SEC‑registered in 2016. The firm is owned by an individual and serves both individual/family and institutional clients. Its advisory services emphasize financial planning, portfolio management for individuals and small businesses, and pension consulting. Compensation is primarily fee‑based, combining a percentage of assets under management with the option for hourly charges. Investment policy tilts toward public equities—exchange‑traded securities are its primary vehicle—and the firm is not positioned as an ESG‑focused manager. Providence maintains an affiliation with an insurance company and has appeared in Citywire’s 2020 “50 Growers Across America” list.
