For over 35 years, Oakwood Capital Securities, Inc. (“OCS”) has been a full-service independent broker-dealer offering a wide range of high-quality financial products and services to individuals and business owners.
Oakwood Capital Securities is built around a simple belief: that financial advice works best when there's no conflict standing between the advisor and the client.
We don't sell proprietary products. We don't answer to a carrier. We don't impose sales quotas on the advisors who affiliate with us. What we offer instead is an open architecture platform, direct access to experienced leadership, and a structure designed to support the kind of objective, client-first advice that actually makes a difference.
Oakwood Capital Securities is one of the Oakwood Capital family of companies — a fully integrated financial ecosystem that brings together accounting and tax, wealth management, investment management, securities, and insurance under one roof. Advisors on our platform aren't just affiliated with a broker-dealer, but have the ability to connect to something larger.
Strong Leadership Team
The strength of Oakwood Capital Securities starts with its leadership — and what makes that leadership different is that it's accessible.
Our affiliated financial professionals can pick up the phone and reach our leadership team directly. That's not an accident. It's how we were designed. We built this firm to operate the way we believe a broker-dealer should, with
experienced people at the top who are genuinely invested in the success of every advisor on the platform.
