Overview
Formation Capital is a financial advisory company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. It manages $496.4 million in assets across two client accounts, placing it among the larger financial advisory firms in the United States by assets under management (AUM). The firm has a small team, including 12 financial advisors. Formation Capital does not act as a registered broker-dealer, meaning the firm cannot buy and sell securities for its own accounts as well as its clients' and instead is required to go through a broker-dealer firm to do so. Securities are exchangable financial assets like equities, options and bonds.
Formation Capital manages all of its accounts on a discretionary basis. Discretionary management is a structure in which transaction choices for the client's account are made by an investment advisor without needing to seek the customer's approval. The advisory firm's typical account size is $248.2 million. The typical financial advisor at Formation Capital manages fewer than one client account, making it one of the most individualized financial advisor firms in the country.
The company's central office is at 3550 Lenox Road Ne, Atlanta, Georgia 30326.
