Joshua Maldonado

Joshua Maldonado is a Managing Director at Continental Advisory Services, LLC, a privately held commercial and investment advisory firm founded in March 2002. According to descriptions of his profile circulating with the firm, Maldonado spent roughly three decades in banking and financial services associated with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, where his work centered on bank supervision and regulation — with emphasis on accounting, finance, credit, audit, internal controls, and risk management. That regulatory and risk background is the lens he brings to the firm's advisory and capital-raising engagements. (Note: this biographical summary is drawn from secondary search results and the firm's site; the detailed bio is not currently displayed in full on the public team page, so specific dates should be confirmed directly.)

His reported education includes a BA from Hunter College (CUNY) and an MBA from Fairleigh Dickinson University with a concentration in Bank Management.

At Continental Advisory, Maldonado sits among a senior team led by Managing Member Jacob H. Yahiayan, alongside other Managing Directors including Carol McCrae and Aldo Andreoli, P.E. The firm positions itself as providing "unbiased financial expertise" exclusively to institutions, corporations, partnerships, governments, and accredited investors — not retail clients. Continental Advisory reports having completed 50+ engagements generating approximately $2.0 billion in economic value across its core sectors.

• Works exclusively with accredited investors, institutional clients, and high-net-worth individuals — not a mass-market or pure early-stage angel mandate.
• Services span debt and private-equity capital raising, mergers & acquisitions, divestiture advisory, loan workouts, and project management in engineering and construction.
• Concentrates on seven sectors: oil, gas & alternative energy; TMT/cybersecurity; healthcare; capital equipment; financial services & risk management; real estate capital markets; and professional engineering services.
• Maldonado's personal value-add reflects his banking-regulation and risk-management background (credit, audit, internal controls), suggesting he gravitates toward financially disciplined, well-governed opportunities.
• Source databases (Adapt.io and similar) classify him as an angel investor focused on seed-round deals; this appears to be a database categorization rather than a thesis Maldonado has publicly articulated.
