Thank you to our summer interns for their dedication to community service during Intern Give Back Day! Their efforts truly reflect our values in action.
This summer, our interns are making an impact at work and in their local communities. As part of our Intern Give Back Day, our summer interns volunteered at food banks across the country, helping fight food insecurity and supporting local families in need. From sorting donations to packing meals and distributing food, it was a rewarding afternoon of service and teamwork. Thank you to our interns and to the many wonderful organizations that welcomed us and made this day of giving possible!

We’re proud to see our own Stephen Carlson, CFA featured at CAIS Live | Leaders in Wealth, sharing how fintech is transforming access to alternative investments. At SCS, we believe that when education and technology come together, advisors are better equipped to deliver sophisticated solutions to their clients.
At CAIS Live | Leaders in Wealth, we asked Stephen Carlson, CFA from SCS Financial how fintech platforms are helping advisors navigate alternative investments. His perspective? When technology simplifies access, and education is built into the process, alternatives become more approachable. “One of the great things CAIS has done over the last decade is making alternatives less alternative for the average advisor.” #alternativeinvestments #financialadvisor #wealthmanagement
