Since 1919, Baird has guided families, businesses, communities and institutions toward their financial goals. Being privately held enables us to prioritize long-term planning and investment – for our clients and the firm – without having to weigh those against the quarterly expectations of outside shareholders. Today Baird offers wealth management, investment banking, asset management, fixed income and equity sales and trading, equity research, public finance and private equity services. This balance of cyclical and counter-cyclical businesses provides financial strength and stability across market environments and enables us to consistently reinvest in our ability to serve clients. We manage or oversee more than $525 billion in client assets and employ more than 5,300 Associates around the world. And, because nearly 85% of our associates are Baird stockholders, you can trust we all share a personal stake in your success. For more than 20 consecutive years, Baird has been one of the FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For®, making us a workplace of choice for some of the most talented, passionate people in financial services. It also enables us to emphasize cultural compatibility in those we hire, many of whom stay their entire careers. All of this helps ensure the quality and consistency of our advice for clients and the timeless values that make the Baird Difference every day for our clients, our Associates and the communities we share.

ING is a pioneer in digital banking and on the forefront as one of the most innovative banks in the world. As ING, we have a clear purpose that represents our conviction of people’s potential. We don’t judge, coach, or tell people how to live their lives. However big or small, modest or grand, we empower people and businesses to realise their vision for a better future. We made the promise to make banking frictionless, removing barriers to progress, and make people confident in their financial decisions. As a global bank we have a huge opportunity – and responsibility – to make an impact for the better. We can play a role by financing change, sharing knowledge, and innovating. Being sustainable is in all the choices we make—as a lender, as a partner and through the services we offer our customers

We support you over time, during expansion phases and their more challenging periods alike. By providing a full range of solutions suited to your needs, we play a facilitating role to help you realise your ambitions and leverage your potential. This is why we intend to develop an authentic advisory relationship for all of your financial issues, specifically risk anticipation and management. Our model is based on both bankers who have a very detailed knowledge of their clients and the sectors in which they are active, as well as a broad cross-asset view of the bank’s various products and experts who bring sophisticated technical skill to their work. This client coverage model, though not in itself unique to Societe Generale, finds a better home there because of the bank’s ability to pool expertise in order to provide bespoke solutions to your needs. As a key pillar of the Societe Generale Group’s universal banking model, SG CIB supports the economy by playing a key intermediary role, offering broad market access to issuers and smart investment solutions to investors. The service we bring to our corporate and financial institutions clients revolves around three main activities - investment banking, financing and markets - and our global franchises of equity derivatives and natural resources. For our clients we stand out because we are a trusted advisor with a worldwide leading engineering expertise and a quality product suite.
