A position of leadership
Since its foundation, Morgan Stanley has been at the forefront of innovations which helped to shape the course of modern finance. From historic underwritings for General Motors, IBM and the World Bank in the 1950s, to the Apple IPO in the 1980’s and Google in the new millennium, the firm has understood important trends and developed new markets.
Today those include premier positions working with hedge funds (as a leader in prime brokerage), leadership positions in emerging markets, such as Russia, China, and the Middle East, and our acclaimed approach to commodities investing, including our presence in the physical commodities markets through oil tanker and power plant ownership.
Morgan Stanley’s pioneering role in the global expansion of the finance services industry, together with our geographic scope, deep understanding of markets and long experience meeting client needs have not only made us a leader in providing the finest in financial thinking and products but also given our recruits an unrivalled global platform for their careers.

While Morgan Stanley’s people come from a wide variety of backgrounds, all are high achievers who share integrity, intellectual curiosity and the desire to work in a collegial atmosphere. We give our people responsibility early, so they can soon make an impact on our business and the world at large.

Through the provision of grants and with dedication from employees, the Morgan Stanley International Foundation (MSIF) and the EMEA Community Affairs programs aim to increase opportunity and access in the areas of children’s health and education. We help those that need it the most.
