Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, established and still based in the heart of the Midwest, extended its reach throughout the United States and into Europe while under the wing of giant insurer Northwestern Mutual.
The First Wisconsin Company–forerunner of Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated–was founded in 1919 as the securities arm of the First Wisconsin National Bank. Robert Wilson Baird was named lead partner and then served as president for nearly three decades.
Baird marked its 75th year in 1994, a time when the stock market was experiencing huge mood swings–rising then falling then rising again. Kasten, meanwhile, had increased the number of office locations, the number of financial advisors, and the number of financial advisors serving institutions by more than four times. Baird had become the leader of its marketplace for corporate and public finance.
Baird is divided into five business units: asset management, which includes Baird Advisors and Baird Investment Management; equity capital markets, which consist of investment banking, institutional equity services and research; fixed income capital markets, which is divided between fixed income sales and trading and public finance; private equity and private wealth management.
