Stephens is Stepping Out in Benton County

Little Rock-based investment bank, Stephens Inc. has opened a private client office in Rogers.
A group headed by longtime Rogers Merrill Lynch adviser, Keith Westmoreland, has opened an “office of convenience” in the J.B. Hunt Tower at Pinnacle Hills. The office will serve clients in Benton County.

Tim Hynes, vice president and manager of Stephens’ Fayetteville office, said the new group is looking for permanent office space in Benton County and will have a presence much like its Fayetteville presence within a year.

“They’re thoroughbreds,” he said of the new team.
