Legion Capital, a specialized real estate development lender, has chosen WealthForge as its new managing broker-dealer. Legion will benefit from WealthForge’s deep experience with providing operational and back-office compliance services to alternative investment sponsors.
As managing broker-dealer, WealthForge provides sponsors with cost-effective and efficient means to comply with regulatory requirements, reduce operational overhead, and mitigate exposure to regulatory risk. These services include syndicate administration, commission processing, regulatory filings, transfer agent integration, offering diligence and more.
"Quality partners are critical when growing retail distribution,” said Jason Plucinak, Legion’s VP of Corporate Finance. "WealthForge brings the exact expertise and experience we need to continue growing our firm."
Legion highlighted multiple factors when discussing why they chose WealthForge as managing broker-dealer for their follow-on Reg A+ offering. Namely, a commitment to regulatory compliance, an exemplary technology platform, and a service-oriented staff that is focused on getting business done.
"We’re excited to partner with quality sponsors like Legion Capital," said Michael Roman, Managing Director of MBD Services at WealthForge. "The momentum they experienced closing out their last offering will only be enhanced with the added benefit of leveraging our managing broker-dealer services to help take their business to the next level."
