Scarborough Capital Management is among only 250 firms across the nation for this recognition.  In only the fourth year of the Forbes/Shook RIA ranking, SCM has continued its upward momentum, moving 10 places higher than last year’s ranking.  The Forbes/Shook Top RIA Firms list highlights independent advisory firms across the country that demonstrate excellence in client service, long-term performance, and fiduciary integrity. SCM’s consistent recognition reflects its commitment to delivering personalized, transparent, and client-first financial advice. Greg Ostrowski, Managing Partner of Scarborough Capital Management, shared his thoughts on this latest achievement: “It’s incredibly rewarding to see our firm’s continued growth recognized on a national level, especially in a field that demands both precision and trust. Moving up in the rankings again this year speaks volumes about the dedication of our team and the confidence of our clients. Our mission remains the same: to help people make smarter financial decisions and feel confident about their future.” As markets evolve and investor needs become increasingly complex, SCM continues to uphold the fiduciary standard—putting clients’ best interests first and ensuring every strategy is built around their goals and values.
