WR Hambrecht Co ., Llc
WR Hambrecht Co., Llc is a member of NASD, the National Association of Securities Dealers. NASD is a self-regulatory organization of the securities industry responsible for the operation and regulation of the NASDQ stock market and over the counter markets. It also administrates exams for the investments professionals, such as the series of 7 exams.
Founded in 1998 by William R. Hambrecht, WR Hambrecht Co is a financial services firm committed to using the Internet and auction process to level the playing field for investors and issuers. The firm’s impartial Internet-based auctions, which allow the market to determine pricing and allocation, are dramatically changing the financial services landscape.
They are headquartered in San Francisco with offices in New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Stamford, CT, Chicago, Montreal, and London. The firm has financial backing from industry leaders including American Century, Crimson Ventures, epartners, Fidelity Ventures, Instinet Corporation, Novell, Park Avenue Equity Capital Partners, LP, Scudder Kemper, Texas Pacific Group, and W Capital Partners.
They continue to identify markets where auctions will benefit investors and issuers. Freddie Mac, one of the biggest buyers of home mortgages in the United States, used the firm’s core technology in a customized web-based auction for its two and three year Reference Note and its Periodic Repurchase Operations raising a total of $102 billion over a two year period.
In May 2001, the company auction channel was used to allocate a portion of a traditional initial public offering. Instinet priced 32.5 million shares at $14.50. All investors who bid $14.50 or higher through the auction were allocated, on a pro rata basis, a total of 5.6 million shares or 17.5% of the total offering. Unlike in a typical traditional offering, there was an almost even split between individuals and institutions who were allocated shares.
WR Hambrecht Co provides underwriting and advisory services for technology and emerging growth companies, as well as equity research, sales and trading, brokerage and private equity offerings.
