  • DYK checklist template
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Passes core criteria, although the phrase about "$35 million in capital and $1 billion under management" is awfully near the same phrase as seen in source (1). The last sentence in the article is uncited, but its removal/retention has no effect on the article. Another issue (not a DYK one) is the References section, which should be renamed because: "A general reference is a citation to a reliable source that supports content, but is not linked to any particular piece of material in the article through an inline citation. General references are usually listed at the end of the article in a "References" section...." However, once a QPQ is supplied, this article is acceptable for DYK.Georgejdorner (talk) 19:12, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, I fixed the points you raised. I have left the references unchanged for the time being as the article is fairly short. I will do a QPQ shortly. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:59, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Gosh, I fail to see how the length of the article has any bearing on the fact you have supplied a Reference section contrary to WP standards. And you still owe a QPQ. However, in an abundance of caution, I signed off on the newly supplied graphic.Georgejdorner (talk) 17:58, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Please note the image is a fair use logo, not free. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:11, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
