About Harbour
Our History
Harbour was founded in
1987, in the beautiful city of Madison, Wisconsin by President and CEO,
Nick Sondel. Harbour has grown at a steady and manageable pace of 10% per
year since then. Current revenues have exceeded more than $25 million
annually and Harbour has a net capital of 8-10 times the required amount.
We currently serve approximately 200 Investment Representatives located in
12 states.
Our Structure
We are a privately held
firm without the presence of an insurance company or other affiliations.
Our Representatives are independent contractors, not employees of the
firm. With few exceptions, Harbour's home office serves as the OSJ for many of our branch offices.
Our Representatives
The Representatives we
attract take a long-term approach to managing their businesses—from their
client relationships to their affiliation with
Harbour. They may utilize a variety of investment alternatives
to best serve their clients including mutual funds, variable annuities,
individual stocks, bonds, fee based asset management or fixed insurance
products. But, they all have a similar goal in mind—a properly balanced
portfolio designed for their clients’ long-term financial success.
Our Culture and Philosophy
When Nick Sondel
established Harbour, he envisioned a broker/dealer that truly
was different from all the others. One that values strong working
relationships, loyalty, personal connections, honesty and integrity. One
that gives flexibility for our Representatives to run their businesses the
way they see fit within the confines of prudent investing. Through our
office visits, conferences, Regional meetings, annual tropical getaway and other
functions, we make it a point to get to know our Representatives and their
businesses. At Harbour, we take great pride in our honest,
straightforward, no-nonsense approach to our business. It is the way
we deal with our Representatives and the way we expect them to deal with
their clients.
Operational
Support
Our principals have an average of 12 years
of industry experience. With diverse backgrounds and superior
knowledge, our support team will help you transact business efficiently
and accurately. The home office staff is cross-trained,
knowledgeable in back office broker dealer operations and up to date on
the industry as a whole. We encourage our Representatives to call us
with any questions.
Compliance Support
Harbour Investments concentrates on common
sense compliance. Our compliance department focuses on trouble
prevention, not sales prevention. We start by bringing on quality
Representatives with outstanding compliance records. That allows us
to be pro-active and to stay ahead of constantly changing regulations,
instead of wasting time and energy on putting out fires. We strive
for approval within 24-hours for your advertisements, communications and
seminars. Since we know our Representatives personally, our
decisions are thoughtful and considerate because we know they affect real
people, not just a Representative ID number.
