A tiny boutique investment banker, only external reference seems to be a little-known financial blog. The 160 "offices" are apparently independent brokers who signed up to add this company to the services they offer. Does not meet WP:CORP. Owen&times; &#9742;  14:28, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - lacks notability and no reliable sources.  Pyrrhus  16 ''' 15:29, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep -- These companies operate as any private independent RIA and broker/dealer does. They are small boutique firms and their independent offices are no different than those at LPL Financial or Raymond James. These articles provide company history and include references to SIPC, NIBA, FSI and Investment News. The company's are small and still relatively new, there are not many independently written articles other than those cited. Wheats72 14:17, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The above account's only edits are these articles and links to them. Owen&times; &#9742;  15:30, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Raymond James is a $2 billion company that has been around for 45 years, and is a constituent of the S&P MidCap 400. You can find thousands of references to it and articles by their analysts in the Wall Street Journal, Fortune magazine and other notable publications. If and when J.P.Turner reaches this size and fame, it will meet Wikipedia's notability standards. Owen&times; &#9742;  15:30, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Don't care how long they've been around or how much their turnover is. I smell spam. Peridon (talk) 23:36, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
