Benjamin Wey is the current president and co-founder of New York Global Group (NYGG)
. NYGG is a leading middle market advisory firm headquartered on Wall Street in New York City as well as in Beijing China. The firm is one of the largest and most successful middle market advisory firms on Wall Street with broad expertise in transactions related to China.
The vision of building a bridge between Chinas booming economy and capital markets on Wall Street was visualized by China expert and NYGG co-founder Benjamin Wey , who started his American journey with just a little more than $62 in his pocket more than 20 years ago. He started his career as an informal advisor on China affairs to the then Republican Governor of a Southern state in the United States. As the China advisor to the Governor more than 15 years ago, Benjamin Wey actively promoted the Southern states product exports to China. He discovered then a business model that would efficiently bridge trade relationships between China and the USA. Benjamin Wey was a pioneer in bridging high quality China based companies with the global capital markets, which was at least a decade earlier than the current strong global investment interest towards China and China based companies.
In New York City since the late 1990s, Benjamin Wey continued to build upon the same successful business model of bridging Wall Street and China. Within a decade, the firm NYGG has grown into a market leader on Wall Street in the niche China related marketplace. The firm New York Global Group has access to significant investment capital of more than US$500 million. NYGG has executed more than 200 projects on China related transactions and the success story of NYGG is a phenomenal American success.
