Our Story

With a global footprint, strategic connections in local markets and specialized emerging markets expertise, Dinosaur Financial Group is known for its deal-making acumen. ​Across our capabilities, we partner with institutional and corporate clients of all sizes, independent advisors and highly affluent individuals to identify and focus on their investment objectives.

Our team has seven decades of experience, which we’ve used to build a platform that combines global investment banking and advisory, a full-service institutional brokerage and responsive investment advisor services. This is a unique mix of capabilities and expertise, and it allows us to optimize straightforward requests, while also solving for those that are complex.

Working with clients and our network of colleagues around the world—with elbow grease and camaraderie—is how we do our best work. Dinosaur’s open-minded approach inspires deal-making creativity and is the key to our success in familiar and frontier markets. We start from yes. Our commitment to every client is to find a way forward.
