The Boston Company Asset Management, LLC (TBCAM) traces its roots back to Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company which first opened its doors to the public on June 1, 1875. Today, the firm is an extremely highly-regarded fundamental active equity manager, whose success has been built on the responsibility of each employee to themselves, to their colleagues, and to our valued clients at every opportunity, every single day. As an institutional manager we serve the investment needs of public, corporate, defined benefit and defined contribution plans, as well as Taft-Hartley, endowment/foundation and sub-advised relationships.
Our research-based culture, which we consider to be among our most valued assets, emphasizes teamwork and collaboration across asset classes, sectors, industries, and investment disciplines in constant pursuit of the best investment ideas. Our firm offers a number of incentives designed to attract and retain best-in-class investment professionals. First and foremost is our firm’s collegial culture. We have a reputation among employees and clients as a firm where very smart, humble, driven individuals are assembled in an open team atmosphere wherein the free exchange of ideas is encouraged. Our senior management takes particular pride in the attention that has been placed on the creation and management of this unique environment.
Another key incentive is the cultural opportunity we have created for all employees to feel the pride of ownership that comes from having every opportunity to make a material impact on what we do. Our organizational structure, which is intentionally flat, encourages an open door policy. Talent management is a priority here, which no doubt contributes to our relatively low employee turnover rate.
TBCAM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of New York Mellon Corporation. On July 1, 2007, The Bank of New York Company and Mellon Financial Corporation merged their businesses to become The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, headquartered in New York. Bob Kelly, Mellon Financial Corporation's most recent Chairman, President, and CEO was named CEO of the new organization and, following an 18-month period, will also become Chairman. Ron O'Hanley, formerly a Mellon Vice-chairman and sector head for Mellon Asset Management, will be responsible for the combined Bank of New York Mellon Asset Management business (to whom we report).
