Charles Schwab

Charles Schwab in Fortune Rankings

Founded in 1971, Charles Schwab is one of the largest financial services companies in the U.S., offering banking and wealth management products, though it is best known for its brokerage platform. Schwab manages trillions in client assets, including through retirement plans, significantly expanding its footprint after acquiring rival TD Ameritrade in 2020 in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $26 billion and transferring millions of accounts to its platform by 2024. In recent years, Schwab has been pushed by an array of financial technology challengers, such as Robinhood, to explore offering new types of products, including crypto and extended-hours trading.
