Originally established in Rockford, IL in 1975, The Ashdale Group, Inc. (then Brokers Mortgage Corporation) offered financial intermediation assistance. As the name changed and the breadth of the Company's offerings grew, Ashdale became known as a facilitator for resource procurement nationwide. In 1996-1997 Ashdale's Illinois presence was replaced with a new presence in Florida. Led by the same executive Principals George R. Boraiko and Barbara B. Schweppe, The Ashdale Group, Inc.'s Florida operations strive to offer even more. Beyond the conventional consulting, intermediation and process improvement services, we seek to identify and develop your Company's unique Equity Growth Strategy.

What is equity? How can a Company use capital stock to augment or replace conventional bank financing? What does "full disclosure" mean, and how should a Company keep investors properly informed? Communicating success is easy; how do we communicate turbulence without implying weakness?

  Equity Growth Pyramid = Turbulence; Strategically Optimized
