Ballast Rock Group, the diversified investment management firm, today announced the formation of Ballast Rock Capital (BRC), its broker-dealer. BRC is a member of the Financial Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

“The creation of our broker-dealer is yet another step in the growth and development of Ballast Rock”, said Thomas Carroll, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Ballast Rock Group. “Our evolution compelled us to seek approval for our own broker-dealer to best support our clients.”

Mr. Carroll, who held various leadership positions at Goldman Sachs and HSBC, will serve as CEO and Chief Compliance Officer of Ballast Rock Capital.

Ballast Rock Group launched in 2018, with a focus on the workforce multifamily housing market throughout the Southeast, creating income-generating, tax-shielded, diversified real estate funds with a positive social impact. The company later expanded into direct investment in clean energy, as well as venture capital.

Last year, Ballast Rock Group also launched Ballast Rock Private Wealth, an independent registered investment advisor with a focus on private-market investments.

“We have seen tremendous interest and attention to private market opportunities, and our broker-dealer allows us to have more flexibility to present attractive opportunities to investors and financial advisors on behalf of their own clients.” added Dirk Hall, Chief Operating Officer for Ballast Rock Group.
