Our primary areas of focus in the Capital Markets business are small and mid-cap growth companies and their investors. Signal Hill's institutional sales, trading and research team is comprised of experienced and talented professionals. Their experience ranges from bulge bracket firms to boutiques, and includes exposure to diverse research products, new issue activity, and industry and client coverage strategies. We feel that offering our clients top-tier talent focused exclusively on small and mid-cap companies sets us apart from most institutional equities practices. Our analysts, sales people and traders are in constant communication and have a very deep understanding of the factors affecting the performance of the companies we follow and their stocks.

Our senior salespeople are a key differentiator for Signal Hill in the marketplace. They are partners in the firm, with substantial experience in the business at a handful of high-quality firms. They are experts in the names we cover and equally able to brief a junior buy-side analyst as well as a senior portfolio manager.

Our trading desk provides professional execution in listed and NASDAQ stocks. We pride ourselves on seamless, anonymous and timely execution of orders. Our traders are partners in the firm and experienced in share repurchases, sales of restricted securities and stabilization of new issues.
