STIFEL'S BANK, LENDING, AND TRUST SERVICES

Addressing both sides of your clients’ balance sheet – it just makes sense. What doesn’t make sense is to force you to do it. At Stifel, you can offer your clients our full range of banking and lending services at your discretion, when YOU feel it’s appropriate.

Remember, we own the bank – the bank does not own us.

“We’re a wealth management firm that owns a bank…not one that is PART of a bank. For advisors like you, this represents a significant distinction between Stifel and the bank-owned firms. Stop and ask yourself…is holistic wealth management a true service to clients at your firm, or a means to make more money?

—Chris Reichert
CEO, Stifel Bank & Trust

Our Story

In 2007, when many of the big banks began to absorb brokerage firms, we went the other way and bought our own bank. We built a bank centered on exceptional customer service, where the advisor is our client. Our bankers serve as an extension of Stifel’s entrepreneurial culture, deepening the client relationship our advisor have worked so hard to build. At Stifel, our banking capabilities match up with the wirehouses, yet without the bureaucracy, cross-selling pressure, product-pushing, or haircuts to your grid.
