History
The Beginning
In 1939, Allen C. Ewing & Co. was founded in Wilmington, North Carolina, as a local investment bank. In the mid-1950's, Mr. Ewing moved the firm to Jacksonville, Florida, as the center of coastal commerce and rail transportation shifted to that area.
Changes to the Banking Industry
On Capitol Hill, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 was implemented, allowing the creation of multi-bank holding companies. Nowhere would this new legislation have a more dramatic impact on Banking than in the State of Florida. Anticipating the resulting investment banking opportunities, the firm positioned its practice with a focus on financial institutions and soon became Florida's premier investment banker to the commercial banking community.
Growing in Charlotte
Ewing Capital Partners, LLC, was formed in 2003 to acquire the outstanding stock of the firm. An office was opened in Charlotte, North Carolina, to extend the firm's geographic reach.
