  • SCHWAB CHARLES CORP NEW Profile

    The once-rebellious Charles Schwab is all grown up. The discount broker now offers the same traditional brokerage services it shunned some three decades ago. Schwab manages approximately $1.3 trillion in client assets for more than 8 million individual and institutional clients. Traders can access its services via telephone, wireless device, the Internet, and through more than 300 US offices. Besides discount brokerage, the firm offers private banking, bond trading, annuities, and proprietary Schwab and Laudus mutual funds, as well as mortgages, CDs, and other banking products through its Charles Schwab Bank. Schwab sold U.S. Trust to Bank of America for some $3.3 billion in cash in 2007.
