Southlake is a great community and we’re excited about opening a new branch and providing our customers in the area a local office,” said Keith Parmley, Scottrade branch manager.

Scottrade is an online stock brokerage that provides the tools and research for customers to make their own investment decisions. Scottrade does not provide investment advice, but stock brokers are available at branch offices to answer account-related questions, provide customer service and offer tutorials on Scottrade’s online trading services.

“We feel it is important to have branch offices where our customers work and live,” said Rodger Riney, Scottrade founder, president and CEO. “While most of our customers trade online, our local branch offices allow us to provide a better customer experience for online investors.”

The Southlake branch office will be Scottrade’s 24th location in Texas and is one of several Scottrade branch offices in the area. Other local branch offices are located in Irving, Arlington, Fort Worth, Plano, Dallas and Garland.

Scottrade’s Southlake branch office is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and can be reached at (817) 421-2343. For more, visit www.scottrade.com.
