Tampa Bay Capital Management LLC

Tampa Bay Capital Management provides portfolio management and financial planning services to individual and high‑net‑worth clients, and prepares a written investment policy statement for each account to document objectives and risk tolerance. The firm’s July 2021 filing shows no assets under management and a single identified management person, reflecting a very small organizational scale at that time.

Its investment approach draws on a wide set of analytical methods—charting, cyclical, fundamental, quantitative and technical analysis—and uses a range of strategies from long‑term investing to short sales, margin and options trading, as well as allocations to ETFs, REITs and private placements. Although it manages client portfolios, the firm discloses that it does not exercise discretionary trading authority over client accounts and provides periodic reviews and custodial reports.

Several operational features distinguish the firm from many peers: it offers hourly billing for financial planning in addition to other compensation arrangements, accepts performance‑based fee arrangements, and requires clients to use a specified institutional custodian for execution and custody. The combination of a single‑manager structure, the use of higher‑risk instruments (including venture/private placement exposure), and the lack of AUM reported in its most recent filing are notable factors for prospective clients to consider.
