Our Story

How we started

In 2002, a group of independent financial advisors affiliated with a large trust company felt they had lost many of the important aspects of their independence inside a large corporate structure. They sought more autonomy, thoughtfulness, and creativity. They wanted a firm that was privately held, removing pressures from private equity or public stock expectations.

Who We Are

They brought in Clive Slovin and his nearly 20 years of experience in the independent broker-dealer world as a consultant to help them form their own broker-dealer. Arthur Goldsmith, who would go on to run operations, joined him when the company launched.

When SFA opened its doors it began attracting advisors from firms that had been absorbed into larger, less personal conglomerates. They sought a community of similar entrepreneurs who valued personalization and a spirit of true partnership with their BD/RIA relationship.

By 2006 SFA moved into its own offices in Atlanta and expanded the staff to better serve advisors and their clients.It weathered the 2008 financial crisis and kept growing, reaching $26 million in revenue by 2012 and paying its first stockholder dividend that same year.

In 2016, SFA launched Strategic Blueprint, a registered investment adviser built for advisors who wanted access to RIA-only custodians and a sophisticated technology infrastructure on which they could build their own unique service model.

A year later, SFA Partners was introduced as the umbrella brand for the growing family of companies.

Today, SFA Partners supports advisors across the United States. But the mission hasn't changed since day one, helping financial advisors build independent, thriving businesses so they can focus on what matters most: their clients.
