Testtimonial:
“We feel fortunate to have had Ken George as our FINOP since 1996. He helped us setup our broker-dealer and has advised Pinnacle Investments, Inc. on securing subordinated loans and expanding business lines into Underwriting. And of course, timely and accurate financial filings including Focus Reports, FINRA assessment reports and net capital computations have made Ken invaluable to our firm.”
