Our Philosophy: A Buttonwood Tree for the Building Products Industry

Prior to the founding of the New York Stock Exchange in 1792, traders and speculators developed the custom of meeting under a certain buttonwood tree near the current site of the Exchange. That practice created a market because it gave buyers and sellers and place to meet and transact. With the majority of companies in the building products industry being privately held, there is no single place for transaction partners to meet, make their financial needs known and execute transactions.

At Building Industry Advisors, we aspire to be that central meeting place and to create a virtual capital market for building products companies. We bring together individuals who wish to grow, buy or sell companies with sources of capital to back those transactions. In doing so, we hope to increase the efficiency of the capital markets for building products companies, increase the speed at which deals are completed and generally improve the outcomes for all market participants.
