Brett was part of the group that built out a robust risk reporting infrastructure that was cutting edge for its time and still in use today. He spent almost 7 years with the firm, helping it grow from $500 million AUM to more than $3 billion. Earlier in his career, Brett spent more than two years at Bear Stearns in the management training program. Brett is located in our New York City office and can be reached at byarkon(at)conceptcapital(dot)com or 646-840-5413.

Prior to joining Concept Capital, Harry worked at Lazard Capital Markets since 2010, where he served as Senior Vice President, Prime Services, and Royal Bank of Canada from 2007-2010, where he served as Vice President, Global Prime Services. Earlier in his career, Harry worked in equity sales and trading at Carlin Financial Group and E*Trade Securities.
