By Laura Lutz

Des Moines, Sept. 18 - Wedbush Morgan Securities hired Scott Sanders, Rebecca Amaya and Lyman Howard to help build an institutional fixed-income group at the firm's San Francisco office.

Sanders was most recently a director in institutional securities sales at RBC Capital Markets. Before that, he was a fixed-income trader and vice president at Sutro & Co. and a director of fixed income at J.W. Garrett & Co. He received a bachelor of arts degree in finance from Michigan State University.

Amaya was previously vice president of taxable institutional sales at Stone & Youngberg and vice president of taxable fixed income and a trader of corporate bonds at RBC Dain Rauscher. She graduated from Marquette University with a B.S.B.A. in finance and marketing.

Howard comes from RBC Dain Rauscher, where he worked in institutional sales and was a vice president. Before that, he was an officer in the U.S. Navy. He earned a B.A. in political science at the University of California, Los Angeles and a master of business administration degree with honors from Oklahoma City University.

"The high caliber of these three executives joining our fixed income group in the San Francisco office significantly enhances the build out of our total fixed income platform, which will include tax-exempt retail, institutional sales and trading, public finance banking and taxable retail and institutional sales and trading," said Douglas L. Charchenko, managing director at the company.

Wedbush Morgan is an investment bank and broker-dealer based in Los Angeles.
