Hilltop Securities Inc. (HilltopSecurities) has recently hired over a dozen experienced Generalist Fixed Income Capital Markets sales and trading professionals in its Memphis office, including an accomplished Small Business Administration (SBA) trading and securitization team. The addition of the recent hires makes HilltopSecurities’ Memphis office one of the firm’s largest Fixed Income Capital Markets locations.

“Our new additions in generalist sales are part of a strategy to expand our fixed income business and other client-focused product areas in Memphis and across the nation more broadly,” said HilltopSecurities President and CEO Brad Winges. “The addition of SBA trading and securitization provides HilltopSecurities with a new client vertical, offering another unique product area of expertise for our bank clients and other fixed income buyers.”

In addition to the new hires in Memphis, HilltopSecurities has added several experienced trading and analytics professionals throughout the U.S. in recent months. In September, the firm welcomed Todd Story to its generalist fixed income sales team in Austin, Texas. Story brings more than 25 years of fixed income experience to the role.

SBA Trading and Securitization

Among the new hires are SBA Trading and Securitization professionals and leaders Carl Stimmel, Mike White, and Zack Bishop. Thirty-year fixed income industry veteran Stimmel will serve as Head of SBA Business Development, overseeing this new line of business at the firm. White and Bishop will co-head the SBA trading and securitization effort.

“I look forward to working closely with our new team members as we continue expanding our product areas of middle market sales, as well as structured products and SBA trading,” said Jason Lisec, Co-Head of Fixed Income Capital Markets. “The combination of our new trading resources allows us to continue helping more clients reach their investment goals.”
