Singer
& Friedlander Company Information
About
The Singer & Friedlander Company
The
history of Singer & Friedlander begins almost a century ago
when, in 1907, Julius Singer founded a stockbroking firm in the
City of London. Ernst Friedlander, whose family had been bankers
in Berlin since 1832, joined him five years later. As the founder
of South Africa's first merchant bank and later, Chairman of the
Johannesburg stock exchange, Ernst brought his unique experience
to their partnership. Forced by the 1914-18 war to resign from the
Stock Exchange, they turned their attention to banking, laying the
foundations for what was to become one of the leading merchant banks
in the City of London.
By 1920, they had been joined by Julius Stern and Max Ullman, at
which point the partnership began operations under the now familiar
name of 'Singer & Friedlander', and business thrived.
Becoming
a publicly quoted company in 1957, the Group was subject to a series
of acquisitions and eventually regained its independence in 1987.
Since then Singer & Friedlander Group PLC has concentrated on
the provision of Banking services in the U.K., together with Investment
Management, Property Investment and Stockbroking. It is now one
of the top 250 companies quoted on the London Stock Exchange.
Today,
Singer & Friedlander Limited, the Banking Division of the Group,
continues to build on the vision of its founders, providing clients
with a highly personal and bespoke service for all their banking
needs.
