Shrewd Move
Four years ago, the employees and managers of Cleary Gull Inc., a Milwaukee investment bank and wealth management advisory company, bought the firm back from Royal Bank of Canada. Their gambit is turning out to be one of the shrewdest business moves in Wisconsin history. Since the 2002 buyback, Cleary Gull has grown from 33 to 57 employees. Its assets under advisement have risen from $600 million to $3.7 billion, and the company's strategic growth plan, developed in 2004, calls for it to double its revenues by 2010.
