order execution for exchange-traded products (ETPs), option strategies and large block equities, announced its
further expansion with the creation of the WallachBeth Healthcare Research Group, an institutional equity research
unit that includes a team of six senior industry veterans who recently joined WallachBeth from Auriga USA, the US
subsidiary of Madrid-based Auriga Global Investors.
The WallachBeth Healthcare Research Group combines the firm’s agency-execution services with a proprietary,
bottoms-up fundamental equity research platform. The new group will focus on providing clients with detailed
company analysis, information flow, conflict-free investment ideas, and access to industry thought leaders across
key healthcare verticals including Life Science Tools, Diagnostics, Clinical Labs, Specialty Pharmaceuticals,
Biotech and Healthcare Services. WallachBeth Capital CEO Michael Wallach said, “We formed a small boutique less than five years ago with a
mandate to provide conflict-free, integrity-rich best execution services for both institutions and sell-side liquidity
providers. The marketplace has clearly embraced this model; we’ve since grown exponentially and now have a 50+
team of professionals serving a broad and widely-recognized client base in multiple product areas. Our offering a
value-added, proprietary equity research product specific to innovative companies within the Healthcare vertical
enables us to extend our role as a niche provider of in-demand, yet under-served markets, and further complements
our mission to provide true best execution.” Senior Managing Directors Douglas Bantum and Gene McNeil Jr. will lead the new WallachBeth division. Bantum
and McNeil most recently served as Co-Head(s) of Equity Sales and Trading for Auriga USA and previously
worked together as Senior Vice Presidents for the institutional research boutique Capstone Investments.
Collectively, they have nearly 40 years experience specializing in institutional equity sales/trading and block trade
execution Additional members of the WallachBeth research team include Senior Equity Research Sales/Trader Anthony
Politi; Director of Research and Life Science Tools and Biotechnology Senior Analyst Peter McDonald; Bloomberg top-ranked Senior Healthcare Services Analyst Glen Losev; and Biotech & Specialty Pharmaceuticals analyst Difei
