History
The Company was founded in 1887 when General Albert Gallatin Edwards and his son opened for business in St. Louis. Among the first brokerage firms to go public in the 1970s, A.G. Edwards has since grown from its regional roots into one of the more recognizable brands in financial services.
Today, American television viewers will recognize the A.G. Edwards 'nest egg' as part of the firm's national branding strategy which includes monthly calculation of the National Nest Egg Score, a relative measure of US saving and investment habits.
