Advanced Equities Financial Corp. was founded in 1999 by independent business owners and securities industry executives Keith Daubenspeck and Dwight Badger, whose entrepreneurial spirit led them to defy old-line traditions and convention by starting a different kind of firm. Advanced Equities soon became the pioneer in providing qualified high-net-worth individuals access to late-stage private equity offerings-opportunities previously available only to institutional investors. AEFC has developed a reputation for being led by entrepreneurs who want to help other entrepreneurs. Blazing a new trail in the world of private equity was followed by a singular approach to retail brokerage through the acquisition of First Allied Securities, Inc., which helped AEFC reinvent the independent advisor model.
