Wellington Management: More than 88 years of history

Our first UCITS fund was launched more than 20 years ago, but our firm’s history goes back almost 90 years. Since 1928, we’ve been serving a wide range of institutions around the world, including pension funds, sovereign-wealth funds, endowments and foundations, family offices, fund sponsors and insurance companies.

1928

We trace our roots back to when Walter Morgan, a Philadelphia-based accountant, established the first balanced mutual fund in the US.

1958

Since its inception, the daily Morning Meeting has been held with the same objectives: to exchange investment ideas, spark wide-ranging discussions and learn from one another each day.

1960s

Four talented investment professionals took on leadership roles at the firm: W. Nicholas Thorndike, Robert Doran, Stephen Paine and George Lewis. Together, they refocused the business and turned it into a global firm, taking on investments and clients outside the US.

1979

Twenty-nine original partners took a risk and bought back the firm after its brief period as a public company. They believed the private form of ownership to be in the best interests of clients and the business.

1983

We opened our London office and began expanding globally at an energetic pace.

1994

We launched our first UCITS fund in Luxembourg. The same year, we also launched our first long/short equity fund, establishing a foundation for the sizeable alternatives platform we have today.
