Our History
Dr. John McGrath, Founder of Broker Dealer Market, had spend
years building and running his securities industry exam preparatory
school. Johns unique program, which dissected, distilled
and taught the skill set required by responsible investment
reps, claimed it could train anyone to be a broker
in 72 hours. It was a success. With an average exam pass rate
of 92%, his school grew, over time, to develop successful
operations for students in a dozen countries. After training
some 40,000 Brokers, Principals, FinOps, CROPs, etc.,
as well as training Bankers and Brokers for the London LIFFE
Exchange, John decided to sell the school and retire which
he did
for a while.
In October of 1987, John began to receive calls from some
of his former students. Several asked John if he knew of any
clean brokerages for sale. Others
were eager to leave the business asking if he knew
of anyone who wanted to purchase a clean profitable Broker
Dealer. John
put both sides together, and acted as an impartial intermediary.
His consummate knowledge of the regulatory process helped
create a quick, seamless transition. From that moment forward,
his phone began to ring with similar requests. Word of mouth
spread, and eventually he decided he liked the process so
much, that he opened Broker Dealer Market.
Over the past twenty years, Broker Dealer Market has grown
to become the preeminent firm assisting buyers and sellers,
facilitating over three thousand transactions. The business
had developed with Johns unique style: keep it simple
and straightforward. John dissected and distilled many of
the regulatory hurdles that buyers and sellers of broker dealers
face, and has created uniquely effective straightforward process
for dealing with all aspects of the Buy, Sell or Merge. Broker
Dealer Market has developed a huge expert roster of attorneys
and securities consultants.
Today, our firm is recognized for its ability to complete
transactions in an efficient, prompt, and often seamless fashion;
initiating and completing the process in a very short timeframe;
