PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan. 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FLG Partners (www.flgpartners.com) and La Honda Advisors (www.lahondaadvisors.com) are pleased to announce a strategic partnership to expand their respective service offerings and provide a broader array of creative financing and financial advisory solutions to clients. The new business partnership between two respected leaders in the finance industry will create a seamless client experience, leveraging each firm’s distinct strengths including CFO consulting solutions, CEO and Board advisory services, capital raising and M&A advisory.
Demand at both firms continues to increase for innovative, client-focused financial advisory and investment banking capabilities. As part of the La Honda and FLG partnership, certain individual partners at FLG Partners will become supervised, SEC-registered representatives associated with La Honda Advisors, a FINRA member firm, enabling more effective and efficient engagement solutions for all parties. Both firms will continue to execute their core respective businesses separately.
“With the continued growth of the FLG partnership and our client reach, we have increasingly encountered opportunities calling for success-oriented engagement terms on financing activities and access to broader investment banking expertise. This partnership between FLG and La Honda Advisors opens the door to this,” said Laureen DeBuono, Managing Partner of FLG. “Having known and worked with the founding partners of La Honda Advisors for over 20 years, this was a natural and clear decision for us. We think alike in terms of building client-oriented businesses for the long term.”
“Many of our clients would benefit from a more direct line of access to senior CFO-level expertise and board advisory expertise. We know that FLG Partners is the best there is,” said David Ketsdever, co-founding partner at La Honda Advisors. “FLG Partners is widely regarded as a market leader for delivering innovative actionable strategies for their clients and is wholly aligned with our own advisory philosophy,” said Julie Levenson, co-founding partner at La Honda Advisors.
