Copper Canyon LLC
Registered Investment Advisor
We are a Boutique Investment Firm
We provide tailored investment management services to each and every client. We put our clients above all else. What is important to you is important to us.
We access client portfolios on regular basis and we manage overall risk to investment portfolios by actively buying and selling individual stocks, ETFs and other securities. Our active management strategy helps clients align their investment objectives with an appropriate level of risk.
Our Approach
Fee-only investment management. Every single client of ours has a specialized investment portfolio to match their financial needs. We manage different types of investment accounts such as Traditional IRA, Roth, Cash and Margin Accounts.
Who We Are
We are experts at investment management, We active manage client portfolios by purchasing individual stocks, index ETFs, option and fixed income securities to manage overall portfolio risk. We implement an active portfolio management strategy, which seizes opportunity with the power of quick decision making, rather than the passive complacency of other investment strategies.
Our Mission
To serve the client interests above everything else. We are held to a higher standard called “Fiduciary”, which means we put client interests ahead of our own. Fiduciary is the highest legal and ethical standard under US law, meaning we are legally bound to look out for client’s best interests.
How are we different from other finance professionals?
Fiduciary ~ To serve the client interests above everything else. We are held to a higher standard called “Fiduciary”, which means we put client interests ahead of our own. It is the highest legal and ethical standard under US law, meaning we are legally bound to look out for your best interests.
Other investment professionals and brokers are held to a different standard called “suitability”. The suitability standard can sometimes conflict with a client’s best interest because this type of financial professional may have an investment product they can sell you from their firm that is not the best available option on a fee, risk or other basis.
A suitability financial professional may not need to look for the lowest cost investment product for a client. If their firm offers a financial security or product that meets a client’s general investment need, the financial professional could use high pressure sales tactics recommending the client buy a commission based product, all while not disclosing alternative investments that could be better suited toward a client specific financial situation.
Our firm is different. We follow a fee-only business model. This means we never accept commission and we always look for the strategy or investment that is in our clients best interest. The fee-only model aligns our interests with client interests because when the client makes portfolio profits, our flat fee increases proportionally. The client portfolio performance and financial success is our top priority and we are always looking out for our clients.
Best Custodial Service For Our Clients
We have an established relationship with Interactive Brokers where our firm maintains a professional advisor account.
