Morgan Stanley, founded in 1924 and headquartered in New York, is a global financial services firm offering investment banking, wealth management, and investment management services across multiple regions.

Morgan Stanley Wealth Management offers personalized financial advice and solutions worldwide, expanding its services through E*TRADE integration and fee reductions to serve a broader range of investors.
Effective January 1, 2025, Morgan Stanley's CEO, Edward (Ted) Pick, officially took on the additional role of Chairman of the Board. This move consolidated the firm's leadership under Pick, following the departure of former Chairman James Gorman at the end of 2024, marking a significant transition for the Wall Street giant.
In a significant move to broaden its investment offerings, Morgan Stanley agreed to acquire EquityZen, a marketplace for trading shares of privately held companies. This acquisition provides Morgan Stanley's clients with access to a previously hard-to-reach asset class and positions the firm to capitalize on the growing number of large, venture-backed private companies.
