Looks like my bucks are in good hands.

 

What? Only 12Millions in 99? That is a miracle when it grew to almost one billion now.

But a little concern is the inconsistency with the story told about their long history since 80s. Any insight?

 

None whatsoever, just saw the #'s and posted them cause so many on ET use IB. Def would be your man for IB info.

 

What inconsistency? This is for the retail side only.

 

client assets are not counted as firm capital and the 1.5 billion+ in equity captial has nothing to do with client assets.

 

I read somewhere it's 1.7Billion+ early this year
