TriPoint Global Equities Announces BANQ, the Electronic Investment Banking Platform

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Sep 25, 2013) - TriPoint Global Equities, LLC, ("TriPoint"), a FINRA member and leading boutique full service investment bank that provides companies with capital raising and corporate and strategic advisory services, today announced that it will soon introduce an innovative new platform called BANQ. www.banq.co.

BANQ is an electronic investment banking platform that will streamline the matching of accredited investors with quality growth companies and alternative investment opportunities. BANQ will provide accredited investors access to proven private equity and hedge fund managers raising capital as well as exciting companies with exposure to rapidly growing sectors and new technologies.

BANQ will take the entire public and private offering process digital and online, providing access to U.S. opportunities and offerings in the U.S. markets. BANQ will widely market its offerings utilizing the new general solicitation and advertising rules promulgated by the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission, in response to the passage of the JOBS Act of 2012.

Securities will be offered through TriPoint, thus providing liquidity for the successful public company offerings and transparency for BANQ investors. In addition, BANQ's backend infrastructure is housed in a secure remote data facility, intensely protecting investor data from both natural disasters and privacy threats.

"The passage of the JOBS Act, combined with the evolution of modern investors who use social media and the digital world to research investment opportunities has led to the launch of BANQ. We plan to make BANQ the premier global portal that provides secure, seamless and compliant introductions of accredited investors to growth companies and alternative investment opportunities. In addition, our platform will be open to other Registered Investment Banks and placement agents who will be able to offer their high quality opportunities to the BANQ members," said Mr. Mark Elenowitz, CEO of TriPoint.

BANQ will debut in the next several weeks. Visit www.banq.co now and sign up to gain access to their listings and to learn more.
