PROFILE |
 |
Founded in 1995 as a traditional brokerage outfit, America First Associates jumped into the congested online trading fray in 1998 with its AFTrader.com Web site. The firm offers a range of different accounts, including individual, joint, foreign, corporate, and custodial accounts, as well as traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs, and Education IRAs. Transactions are completed via phone or the firm's Web site, which offers clients access to brokers and lets them make trades, check accounts, review portfolios, and do research. The company offers investing vehicles such as stocks, options, mutual funds, and unit investment trusts (UITs). America First Associates canned its planned IPO.
