Mark S. Howells, our founder, began his career in the industry in brokerage operations, quickly advancing into sales and management roles with a regional brokerage firm. In 1987, after the market decline, the timing was right for Mr. Howells to start his own firm. As demonstrated daily by the dedicated team who make up the M.S. Howells & Co. family, M.S. Howells & Co. embodies Mr. Howells' years of experience and true dedication to clients.

The firm caters to alternative asset managers and registered investment advisors of all sizes with assets under management ranging from less than $1 million to greater than $1 billion. Our clients are located throughout the United States.
