NEW YORK, March 30 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Soleil Securities Corporation,
recognizing that the federal government's growing role in the U.S. economy
requires insightful, real-time policy research, announced today that it has
signed agreements with noted policy analyst and Washington Research Group
founder Greg Valliere and former Federal Reserve Board Governor Lyle Gramley
to launch Soleil's Washington Policy Team.

New York-based Soleil, a provider of value-added, independent equity research,
said that the addition of Mr. Valliere and Gov. Gramley represents Soleil's
entry into the policy research arena, and demonstrates the firm's ongoing
commitment to providing its clients with a timely and relevant product
offering. Together with its existing team of 26 veteran equity analysts,
Soleil now expects to selectively expand its policy research team into
targeted sectors, among which may include a financial and tax policy expert in
the near future.

"With the increased focus on the symbiotic relationship between Wall Street
and Washington, we believe that Soleil's clients will gain competitive
advantage from both Greg's and Lyle's unique policy perspectives," said Terry
Gardner, President and Chief Executive Officer of Soleil. Vince Farrell,
Soleil's Chief Investment Officer, added, "We are pleased to have the caliber
and reputation of these highly sought policy experts who have proprietary
insights on the Washington pulse and its investment implications."

Mr. Valliere will serve as Soleil's Chief Policy Strategist and has been
covering economic and political developments in Washington for institutional
investors for the past 30 years. "We selected Soleil for its thought
leadership and innovation in delivering high quality research with
unparalleled service to institutional investors," said the founder of the
Washington Research Group. Among its many accolades, WRG was consistently
ranked at the top for Macro/Washington research by Institutional Investor
magazine.
