Morgan Stanley Portfolio holdings
Morgan Stanley is a financial services company with divisions for institutional services, wealth management and investment management. Its institutional arm advises large institutions on strategy and raising capital, its wealth arm serves individuals and family offices and runs the E-Trade self-directed investing service, and its investment arm offers hedge fund, real estate and infrastructure strategies as well as private equity and private credit. It was founded in 1935 by Harold Stanley and Henry Sturgis Morgan, who was J.P. Morgan's grandson, both leaving J.P. Morgan & Co., after the Glass-Steagall Act forced commercial and investment banking apart. In 1997 it merged with Dean Witter Discover, the financial services business Sears had spun off, and it went back to the Morgan Stanley name in 2001. In 2009 its wealth business was merged with Citigroup's Smith Barney, and in 2012 Morgan Stanley bought a larger share of that venture from Citigroup. Morgan Stanley later bought E-Trade in 2020 and Eaton Vance in 2021.
