Cazenove was a British stockbroker and investment bank, founded in 1823 by Philip Cazenove. It was one of the UK's last independent investment banks and one of the last to remain a private partnership. The main parts of the business were acquired by JPMorgan Chase in 2009 with the remains being sold to other financial institutions. The Partnership was well known for its 'blue-blooded' reputation and its complete aversion to publicity, but was one of the most successful brokers and corporate advisers in London, being described by the Financial Times as 'dominant' and as having an 'aura'. ==History== The company has its roots from the early Huguenot financiers that left France for Geneva in 1685 following the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, which established Catholicism as the state religion of France. Among those were members of the Cazenove family, who later left Geneva for the UK seeking wealth and freedom in the City of London. In 1819 Philip Cazenove first joined the business of his brother-in-law John Menet. Cazenove and Menet become partners, and in 1823 the beginnings of the firm of Cazenove are born. After Menet died Cazenove entered into a partnership with Joseph Laurence and Charles Pearce.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cazenove: a brief history of the 'Queen's broker' )〕 In 1854 Cazenove branches out on his own, and later forms a new partnership with his son and nephew. The stockbroker firm continues to develop and by 1930s becomes one of the leading stockbroking partnerships in London. The company played a major part as advisor in most of Margaret Thatcher's UK Government's privatisation issues in the 1980s. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cazenove (stock broker)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
