GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Keep the PaineWebber story close with a metal business card holder celebrating a notable name in American finance. Founded in Boston in 1880, the brokerage expanded its reach through a New York move, investment banking, and acquisitions including Kidder, Peabody & Co. After its 2000 merger with UBS, the business continued under the UBS PaineWebber name before becoming UBS Wealth Management USA in 2003. A conversation-starting collectible for business history fans and vintage corporate identity enthusiasts.
Founded in Boston in 1880 by William A. Paine and Wallace G. Webber, the brokerage began as Paine & Webber and leased offices at 48 Congress Street in 1881. It became Paine, Webber & Co. when Charles H. Paine joined the partnership, and acquired a New York Stock Exchange seat in 1890. The firm entered investment banking in the 1920s. In 1942, it merged with Boston firm Jackson & Curtis, becoming Paine, Webber, Jackson & Curtis. The company moved its headquarters to New York in 1963; its holding company, PaineWebber Inc., was incorporated in 1969 and went public in 1974. Acquisitions expanded its services and reach, including Blyth, Eastman Dillon & Co. in 1979 and Kidder, Peabody & Co. in 1995. In 1984, divisions combined under the PaineWebber Inc. name, with PaineWebber Group Inc. established as parent. After acquiring J.C. Bradford & Co. in April 2000, the firm completed a $10.8 billion cash-and-stock merger with Zurich-based UBS on November 3, 2000. The business was initially called UBS PaineWebber; in 2003, the PaineWebber name was replaced by UBS Wealth Management USA.
