What Matters Most
At Baird, every decision we’ve made since our founding in 1919 – from our employee-owned structure and the exceptional individuals we hire to the businesses we are in and the way we do them – has aligned with our mission: To provide the best financial advice and service to our clients and be the best place to work for our associates.
Our Perspectives
Different by Design
As a privately held company, Baird can prioritize clients’ interests and continually reinvest in our expertise and resources to best serve them. This approach has resulted in enduring financial strength and stability that’s served all of us well through changing markets.
We’ve also created a unique culture, earning consistent recognition as a great workplace that attracts great people. And, as employee owners, we’re personally invested in our clients’ long-term success. It’s why so many of us stay at Baird our entire careers.
Together, the things that make us different from other firms support continuity for our clients and help ensure the quality of our advice, as evidenced by numerous recognitions received over the years. We appreciate those accolades, but our clients’ trust and confidence are what we strive to earn and keep every day.
