Hispanic Securities Lawyer George Guerra Announces Opening of Fund Hub to Help Hispanic Businesses
Tampa, FL (PRWEB) January 29, 2014 -- Hispanic securities lawyer George Guerra had joined Securities Regulatory Lawyer and FINRA Board of Governors member Kevin Carreno as well as nationally-recognized crowdfunding expert Kendall Almerico to open http://www.FundHub.biz, a website offering affordable compliance services to Regulation D and JOBS Act equity crowdfunding investors, issuers and broker-dealers. With Fund Hub, Guerra will concentrate on helping Hispanic individuals and companies understand how to get funding to start and grow their businesses.
“Hispanic-owned businesses are one of the fastest growing start-up market segments.” Guerra says. “With Fund Hub, I will help these businesses grow by making the compliance and due diligence requirements from the SEC affordable for Hispanic businesses involved in the funding process.”
Fund Hub is intended to provide user-friendly, easy to understand and affordable compliance services for businesses raising funds and investors who are providing them. As the JOBS Act rules become law, and equity crowdfunding is legalized, Fund Hub will also provide services in that market.
“Hispanic-owned businesses have their own unique set of challenges,” Guerra says. “Fund Hub can address those needs and help this rapidly growing market segment grow even faster.”
