What Globic Advisors does

Globic Advisors is a privately held, U.S.-based financial services firm specializing in investor relations and Information Agent services for the municipal bond market. Founded circa 2004 and headquartered at 477 Madison Avenue in New York City, with a second office in Boca Raton, Florida, the firm serves municipal bond issuers, trustees, liability management teams, and bond counsel during tender offers, consent solicitations, exchange offers, bond refundings, and bankruptcy-related creditor vote tabulations. Its core service line combines Investor Identification (locating bondholders globally) with Information Agent execution services (document distribution, bondholder noticing, vote tabulation, and document website hosting). The company also offers Tender Agent, Exchange Agent, Proxy Solicitation, Consent Solicitation, Noticing Agent, and Transaction Mechanics Consultation, presented as an integrated suite tailored to each transaction.

The firm generates revenue through professional services fees billed per transaction rather than recurring subscriptions. Its go-to-market is sales-led: direct engagement with municipal issuers, supplemented by channel relationships with major dealer managers and financial advisors including BofA Securities, Jefferies, Wells Fargo, RBC Capital Markets, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, D.A. Davidson, and Mesirow Financial. Disclosed engagements include the State of Florida, State of Wisconsin, State of Louisiana, City of Chicago, City of Houston, Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission, Boston University, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, San Diego Community College District, and Montana State University, among more than 25 named public-sector issuers. The firm currently lists 30+ active events on its website.

The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, institutional investor, funding rounds, headcount figure, or financial filings. It is not certified, not patent-bearing, and shows no regulatory actions or M&A activity in the source data. Its technology footprint is described as document-management and investor-communications tooling with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, APIs, or proprietary platform.
