History
Banking and Business Consultants was formed in 1989 by Roy Franc Baas during the height of the oil-related depression in Louisiana. The deep recession created opportunities and a need for professional crisis-management services to address the explosion of failures and near-failures developing in previously stable business enterprises. Businesspeople were increasingly required to engage with lenders and regulatory agencies, resulting in less favorable outcomes than in prior business negotiations. Baas assembled a team of financial professionals, most with extensive backgrounds at financial institutions, to provide expertise in financial management for business owners with limited or no experience.
This initial effort evolved over the years into a full-service financial consulting firm specializing in advice and representation, coaching, business planning, capital and debt placements, litigation support, and the other services described at this site.
