In 2012, buoyed by a desire to make a difference in your community, we created the FHN Financial Capital Markets Public Finance Group, now comprised of a Municipal Products Manager, a national Head of Public Finance, approximately 18 public finance banking professionals, 11 municipal trading and underwriting professionals, and complemented by over 125 active sales representatives who also focus on selling municipal securities. We are backed by over $8 billion in capital as a division of First Horizon Bank, N.A., which we don't hesitate to put behind every underwriting in which we participate. We leverage our strong relationships with Regional Insurance companies, Separately Managed Accounts(SMA), Bank Trust departments and our unparalleled depository distribution system to create more competition for the sale of your bonds. In fact, where we bring the most value is our ability to reach buyers that have traditionally NOT bought tax-exempt general market municipal bonds along with distribution to Tier II, III, and IV accounts that have limited coverage by our competitors. We also are supported by a top-notch municipal credit analytics team, and our Sales Force is among the largest and most experienced in the industry, all to bring strong execution to debt issuances. We are consistently ranked in the top 20 Nationally for Competitive and Negotiated General Obligation Underwritings. From healthcare and school districts to nonprofits, we have the resources in place to bring your issue to the market.
