IDT Capital Group joins Osaic, bringing $186M in client assets
Advisor David Calderon transitions from LPL Financial to partner with New York Financial Partners Enterprise
Osaic, Inc. (“Osaic”), one of the nation’s largest providers of wealth management strategies, today announced that IDT Capital Group, an independent wealth management firm based in Melville, New York, has joined Osaic through New York Financial Partners (“NYFP”), an Osaic office of supervisory jurisdiction (OSJ). Led by financial advisor David Calderon, the firm transitions from LPL Financial and oversees approximately $186 million in client assets.
After more than a year of due diligence evaluating potential platform partners, Calderon selected Osaic for its expanded technology capabilities, enhanced trading access and alignment with his long-term vision for client service. A key factor in the decision was identifying an OSJ partner that could support a seamless and efficient transition while enabling future growth.
“Being an independent advisor doesn’t mean you’re on an island by yourself,” said Ken Femiano, founder and managing director at New York Financial Partners. “We’re excited to welcome David to Osaic and New York Financial Partners, and to support him with the infrastructure, leadership access and resources empowering him to focus fully on his clients.”
Through Osaic’s platform and the operational support of OSJ Howard Asch and his NYFP team, IDT Capital Group gains access to tools designed to enhance productivity, scalability and flexibility—allowing the firm to deepen client relationships while positioning the business for sustained growth.
“We’re honored to support David as he continues to grow his practice,” said Erinn Ford, executive vice president of advisor engagement and co-head of Osaic’s Independent Channel. “His client-first mindset, combined with Osaic’s flexible platform and NYFP’s hands-on support, creates a strong foundation for long-term success.”
At Osaic, independence is not only respected but also empowered. The firm continues to attract independent advisors seeking greater autonomy paired with robust support, technology and community—reinforcing its commitment to empowering advisors to grow on their own terms. Recent examples include Chris Livingston, Brian Collins and True Wealth Advisors.
