We invite you to discover the difference Baird can make in your financial life.

Structured for Your Success

Being privately held and employee owned lets us focus on your financial needs – not the short-term expectations of outside shareholders. This enables us to think and plan for the long-term, consistently reinvesting in our capabilities, expertise and technology to best serve you. It’s part of what makes us a workplace of choice for top talent from across our industry. It also reinforces the foundation of our uniquely collaborative, clients-first culture because we all understand our collective reputation and resources are on the line every day. And it ensures we all share a meaningful, personal stake in the successes we strive to create for you.

A Caring Community Partner

Baird has a long tradition of giving back in the communities where our associates live and work, and many give generously of their time, talents and personal resources to local organizations. Our associates also support annual firm level campaigns to raise funds for local and national charities. And our Baird Foundation provides financial support for causes ranging from fighting homelessness and hunger to promoting education and the arts.

Other ways Baird supports associates’ passion for giving back include:

  • Baird Gives Back Week: encourages associates to team up in their communities and volunteer in a range of activities, including tutoring students, working with seniors, building homes and cleaning up parks
  • Baird Cares: provides an extra paid day off each year for associates to volunteer in their communities
  • Baird Foundation Matching Gift Program: matches a portion of Baird associates’ nonprofit contributions
  • Brenton H. Rupple Citizenship Award: presented annually to an associate who makes outstanding contributions to civic, charitable and academic organizations
