Abstract

In 1986, Wertheim & Co. of New York entered into a joint venture with Schroders plc of London to form the investment bank Wertheim Schroder. By 1993, there were numerous successes as the partners pursued joint opportunities, but there were also areas in which integration had not taken place. The CEO wondered how to create greater integration.
