The addition of Barry and the Cleveland location mark the most recent moves in the firm’s ongoing expansion in the Midwest.

Maggio, HilltopSecurities managing director and co-head of fixed income capital markets. “With nearly 20 years of proven experience in institutional fixed income sales, Kevin brings the skills and product knowledge that will help us continue to grow in this important market.”
Barry joins HilltopSecurities from Huntington National Bank where he served as managing director, institutional sales and trading. Prior to his time at Huntington, he served as principal, institutional fixed income sales, at Piper Jaffray where he launched that firm’s Cleveland office. He has also held positions with Fifth Third Securities, McDonald Investments, and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.
