“If you want to know who’s accountable, just read the name on the door. For 78 years, Stephens has operated under the vision and values set forth by my uncle and my father. They held themselves directly accountable for the success of their clients, valuing relationships much more than transactions. I saw their integrity in action, sometimes at the expense of the firm — but always what they thought was right. They built their names upon the respect and honesty of these long-term partnerships. And as a Stephens, I couldn’t work any other way.” —Warren Stephens, CEO

As an independent financial services firm, Stephens is free to focus on what really counts: delivering original insights based on in-depth research and rigorous analysis. This focus has kept Stephens financially strong and independent from our founding in the Great Depression through the recent financial crisis. Whether you’re raising capital, making an acquisition or seeking private equity, you deserve an investment bank as independent in spirit and committed to value creation as you are.
