About

Arkapital was born from a profound sense of purpose and a commitment to doing better in an industry where trust, transparency, and empathy often take a backseat to profits. Founders Isaac and Sandra Salcido, a dynamic power couple with over a decade of experience in the financial services sector, recognized a troubling pattern. They saw that many financial professionals prioritized selling products over truly understanding and addressing their clients' unique needs. This realization became the catalyst for creating a company that would redefine financial services by putting people first.

For Founder Isaac Salcido, the mission is personal

For Isaac, this mission is deeply personal. He was only 10 years old when he witnessed the devastating consequences of inadequate financial planning when his father passed away. The life insurance policy meant to safeguard his family ultimately proved to be unsuitable, having been sold by an individual prioritizing personal gain over the family's best interests. As the oldest of four children, Isaac stepped into the role of provider, taking on multiple jobs to sustain his family. These early years of hard work and resilience shaped his character and fuelled his determination to ensure others would not face the same hardships.

In his career, Isaac began in banking, learning the foundational principles of financial services. Sandra, on the other hand, started her career in tax management, specializing in supporting business owners. When their paths crossed, they bonded over their shared frustrations with the industry’s lack of ethics and empathy. Together, they envisioned a company that would approach financial services differently—a company rooted in transparency, humanity, and a genuine desire to help people protect themselves and their families.

The origin of the word “Arkapital”

They named their company Arkapital, drawing inspiration from the Spanish word “Arka,” referencing Noah’s Ark—a symbol of starting anew after a storm. This name reflects not only their own journey of overcoming personal and financial hardships but also their mission to guide others toward a new era of security, stability, and success.

Bridging the gap between exclusivity and accessibility

Isaac and Sandra also noticed that some of the most valuable financial products and knowledge were often reserved for the ultra-wealthy. Determined to change this, they made it their mission to educate entrepreneurs, athletes, and entertainers about these tools, empowering them to make informed decisions and build lasting legacies. Their dedication to financial education became a cornerstone of their work, bridging the gap between exclusivity and accessibility.

Their story of resilience and service doesn’t end with their business. Before launching Arkapital, Isaac and Sandra operated a nonprofit organization to support vulnerable communities in northern Mexico. This philanthropic background fuels their desire to grow their business exponentially, not just for personal success but to make an even greater impact on the world. They remain as active in their philanthropy efforts as sponsors of causes supporting women-led initiatives supporting the arts, education and entrepreneurship.
