Rich Tradition
Neuberger Berman’s commitment to investment management has deep roots. In 1939, renowned investor Roy Neuberger founded the firm to manage money for individuals and families. The firm thrived and grew, earning a reputation for excellent performance and integrity. In 1950, Neuberger Berman became one of the first firms to offer a no-load mutual fund to individual investors, and that mutual fund family grew alongside the private client business. In 1971, the firm launched a portfolio for institutions, marking its formal entry into the institutional investment management business. Today, we continue to serve a broad range of investors across traditional equity, fixed income and alternative asset classes, while offering portfolio advice and wealth planning services. Since our first application of “avoidance screens” in the 1940s to the launch of our Socially Responsive Investment team in 1989, Neuberger Berman has been on the forefront of integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria into the investment process, which we continue to this day.
Distinctive Mindset
We have operated successfully through many investment and economic cycles, which has helped strengthen and define us as a firm. Today, we are best described as a collective of independent, entrepreneurial-minded investment teams and support groups who are motivated to do well for clients in their respective areas of expertise. This sense of teamwork, accountability and client-focus is shared across our entire organization. We hire and retain employees based on merit, attracting talent with the dedication and creativity needed to foster diverse perspectives and a passion for investing.
