Broker Fair Preshow Party On Pace for Largest Ever
May 28, 2026Broker Fair’s pre-show event taking place in New York City at Hudson Vu on Sunday, May 31 from 7-9pm (and sponsored by Lendini!) is on pace for the largest turnout in the nine-year history of the tradition. The previous record for pre-show registrations was set in late 2021 at the industry’s first in-person event after a 23 month hiatus due to covid.
Because the pre-show is expecting a large crowd, make sure you have the special pre-show ticket ahead of time since the space could completely sell out. You can order them through the normal registration process here.

Former Operator of NACLB Conference Sentenced to Eight Years in Prison
April 3, 2026Kris Roglieri, the founder, and former operator of the National Alliance of Commercial Loan Brokers (NACLB) Conference, was sentenced to 97 months in prison. Roglieri previously pleaded guilty to wire fraud conspiracy after it was revealed in 2024 that his commercial lending business, Prime Capital Ventures, was actually a ponzi scheme.
Roglieri’s attorney had argued that he should only get 4-6 years but the judge went with 8.
After the conviction this past fall, Acting U.S. Attorney Sarcone stated: “Kris Roglieri brazenly flaunted the proceeds of his scheme—including luxury vehicles, rare watches, and private jet travel—all while feeding his victims bigger and bigger lies to fuel his greed to even greater heights. But the truth stopped him like a brick wall. All those trappings of wealth will be forfeited, and he will be ordered to make his victims whole. I applaud the FBI and the members of my office on this case for unraveling this devastating scheme and bringing its perpetrators to justice.”
Roglieri founded the NACLB Conference in 2015 and operated it until 2023.
