“Mundial Securities is a very special firm, which has grown in reputation, stature and size over the past 12 years, and I am proud of the firm I have helped to form.  It is with a heavy heart that I have decided that now is the right time to for me to retire from my executive positions at Mundial Securities, as I have extensive medical treatment to undergo in the coming months and I am at the start of a long-road toward recovery.  I believe that the team we have formed, including Michael Geller, our Vice President of Mergers & Acquisitions, Guy Thomas, Director of Private Equity, Lewis Porter, Head of Institutional Trading and my assistant as Head of Latin American Strategy, Juan Enrique Ramos, have the experience, knowledge and skill to continue the work I have started at Mundial Securities.”

Mundial Securities President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. George Grossman added “First and foremost, I wish Seve all the best in his retirement and we pray that he will continue to recover from his illness.  I know that Seve will be in regular contact with me I his role as a Non-Executive Member of the Board, and he will attend our Board Meetings either in person and or through teleconferencing, and will continue to influence the overall strategy of Mundial Securities.”
