Asukaga & Finch

Asukaga & Finch (A&F), formerly known as Merill, Asukaga & Finch (MA&F), is an exclusive investment and financial counseling firm, based in New York, NUSA. The corporation was originally founded by three journalist majors: an American, a Japanese, and Italian to create a diverse company to spread around the world.

Overview
If you have money, and you want more, or you just want it safe, Merrill, Asukaga, and Finch are the people to talk to. They are without a doubt the top people in investments of all kinds, from stock to real estate to frog-farming futures. However, if you don't have a good deal of money in the first place, they aren't interested- the commission on a $1000 investment isn't worth their rather expensive time.

MA&F's high caliber of service has attracted many of the richest and most powerful people in the world. If, for some reason, they were to go bankrupt, some of the greatest powers in the world, both legal and illegal, would be overturned.

By 2077, they had left behind the "Merrill" name, rebranding themselves as "Asukaga & Finch."
