Capital Markets Advisory Group

Domestic or international. Traditional exchange traded or OTCQX listed. Public or private. Regardless the type of high growth company looking to expand its presence with U.S. institutional investors, Merriman Capital can tailor a full suite of capital markets advisory services to fit their unique needs.

Public Company Advisory & Issuer Support

Merriman’s Capital Markets Advisory Group is focused on small and micro-capitalized public companies. We provide a mix of traditional and innovative issuer support mechanisms intended to increase visibility for the advisory client and maximize shareholder value.

These mechanisms include traditional brokerage research, which gives us an opportunity to express our clients’ core value proposition in both qualitative and quantitative terms. Research is distributed through global distribution platforms, which include Bloomberg, Thomson-Reuters and First-Call, as well as directly to our network of institutional and ultra-high net worth accounts.

Active institutional sales – trading leverages the research and gives us the opportunity to maximize its potential and convert interest into transactions for our rapidly expanding advisory client base.

Advising Companies on OTCQX with Greater Transparency and Exposure

Merriman Capital was also the first FINRA member investment bank to be a Designated Advisor for Disclosure (DAD) / Principal American Liaison (PAL) for the OTCQX. The firm is the leading Investment Bank DAD/PAL and is knowledgeable in both the disclosure requirements of U.S. securities laws and the most effective investor communications practices on behalf of international and domestic companies.

• Best practices for engaging institutional and HNW equity investors
