About the Company
Morgan Stanley is an American multinational investment bank and financial

services company headquartered at 1585 Broadway in the Morgan Stanley
Building, Midtown Manhattan, New York City. With offices in more than 42
countries and more than 55,000 employees, the firm's clients include corporations,
governments, institutions and individuals.
The original Morgan Stanley, formed by J.P. Morgan & Co. partners Henry Sturgis
Morgan (grandson of J.P. Morgan), Harold Stanleyand others, came into existence
on September 16, 1935, in response to the Glass–Steagall Act that required the
splitting of commercial and investment banking businesses. In its first year the
company operated with a 24% market share (US$1.1 billion) in public offerings and
private placements.
The current Morgan Stanley is the result of merger of the original Morgan Stanley
with Dean Witter Discover & Co. in 1997. Dean Witter's Chairman and CEO, Philip
J. Purcell, became the Chairman and CEO of the newly merged "Morgan Stanley
Dean Witter Discover & Co." Eventually, the new firm changed its name back to
"Morgan Stanley" in 2001. The main areas of business for the firm today
are institutional securities, wealth management and investment management.
Morgan Stanley is a financial services corporation that, through its subsidiaries and
affiliates, advises, and originates, trades, manages and distributes capital for
governments, institutions and individuals. The company operates in three business
segments: Institutional Securities, Wealth Management, and Investment
Management.
Morgan Stanley splits its businesses into three business
units. As listed below:
1. Institutional Securities Group
2. Wealth Management
3. Investment Management
Institutional Securities Group:-
Morgan Stanley's Institutional Securities has been the most profitable business
segment for Morgan Stanley in recent times. This business segment provides
institutions with services such as capital raising and financial advisory services
including mergers and acquisitions advisory, restructurings, real estate and project
finance, and corporate lending. The segment also encompasses the Equities and the
Fixed Income divisions of the firm; trading is anticipated to maintain its position as
the "engine room" of the company. Among the major U.S. banks, Morgan Stanley
sources the highest portion of revenues from fixed income underwriting which was
reported at 6.0% of total revenue in FY12
Wealth Management:-
The Global Wealth Management Group provides brokerage and investment

advisory services. As of 2014 Q2 this segment has reported an annual increase of 21
percent in the pre-tax income.This segment provides financial and wealth planning
services to its clients who are primarily high-net-worth individuals.
On January 13, 2009, the Global Wealth Management Group was merged with Citi's
Smith Barney to form the joint venture Morgan Stanley Smith Barney. Morgan
Stanley holds 51% of the entity, and Citi holds 49%. As of May 31, 2012, Morgan
Stanley planned to purchase an additional 14% of the joint venture from Citi.[In June
2013, Morgan Stanley stated it had secured all regulatory approvals to buy
Citigroup's remaining 35% stake in Smith Barney and would proceed to finalize the
deal.
Investment Management:-
Investment Management provides asset management products and services in

equity, fixed income, alternative investments, real estate investment, and private
equity to institutional and retail clients through third-party retail distribution
channels, intermediaries and Morgan Stanley's institutional distribution channel.
Morgan Stanley's asset management activities were principally conducted under the
Morgan Stanley and Van Kampen brands until 2009.
On October 19, 2009, Morgan Stanley announced that it would sell Van Kampen
to Invesco for $1.5 billion, but would retain the Morgan Stanley brand. It provides
