Re: Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. Registration Statements on Form S-1 File No. 333-183963
Dear Ms. Long:
Pursuant to Rule 477 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc. (the Registrant) hereby requests that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) consent to the withdrawal, effective as of the date hereof, of its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-183963) initially filed on September 18, 2012, together with all amendments and exhibits thereto (collectively, the Registration Statement).
The Registrant has determined not to pursue the initial public offering to which the Registration Statement relates due to current market conditions. The Registrant believes that a withdrawal of the Registration Statement is consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors as mandated by Rule 477 of the Securities Act. The Registrant confirms that no securities have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement; and the Registrant requests that, in accordance with Rule 457(p) of the Securities Act, all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited for future use.
Please send copies of the written order granting withdrawal of the Registration Statement to the Registrant at Silvercrest Asset Management Group Inc., 1330 Avenue of the Americas, 38th Floor, New York, New York, 10019, with a copy to the Registrants counsel, Bingham McCutchen LLP, Attn: Christina E. Melendi, 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10022. |
