Investing, for everyone
Morgan Stanley Agrees to Acquire E*TRADE
About us
E*TRADE is the pioneer of online trading for retail investors.
We were born in the early ‘80s when a physicist and inventor developed a process to place a trade online for retail investors. This became the first online transaction sent to an exchange, and it paved the way for all main street investors to control their own investments online, without the need of a human broker.
Today, we are a leading online financial services firm that specializes in a first-class experience for the digitally inclined investor and trader, backed by personal professional guidance. The Company also has a high-tech custody platform for advisors and the industry’s #1-rated stock plan administration platform .2
