Registered Investment Advisory firm - (12/11/2012 Terminated)

Massachusetts

Registered Investment Advisory firm - (10/23/2012 Approved)

Why is a state registration marked "Terminated"? When a firm registers with the SEC (usually after managing $100M+ AUM), it often withdraws separate state firm registrations unless required by that state. The firm can still serve clients there through its individually registered Investment Advisor Representatives (IARs).
