We are committed to corporate philanthropy; economic and financial literacy advocacy; and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
Stephens is proud to sponsor the PGA TOUR, LPGA Tour, and PGA TOUR Champions careers, as well as applaud the philanthropic endeavors, of our Brand Ambassadors.
Stephens is the official investment banking partner of Williams Racing, one of the most winning teams in F1 history. We share that tradition of success.
We host many highly informative meetings each year with clients, industry decision makers, and thought leaders across the U.S. and in Europe.
Stephens has been a family-owned private company since inception. This gives us special insight into the needs of privately held businesses, including those with family structures, which often have different priorities than public and sponsor-owned firms.
Whether helping a founder’s long-term plan create value, refinancing to fuel transformative growth, or diversifying a legacy brand through an acquisition, our bankers specialize in tailored solutions. Stephens also addresses post-deal asset management issues and works with clients' advisors on estate planning and succession issues.
Our Private Company Advisory services include: unvarnished M&A advisory for buyers and sellers, access to capital raising and co-investing sources, debt advisory, multigenerational liquidity solutions, and more.
