Quazzo as a growth focused research-centric investment bank. In April 2007, Panmure Gordon, a London-based investment bank, acquired the firm.

On October 17, 2012, the company announced that it was closing its stock-trading business and would transfer its remaining investment-banking unit to another firm. Three weeks later, on November 7, the company filed for Chapter 7 liquidation.[1]
