美林(Merrill Lynch)，(NYSE：MER, TYO: 8675), 世界最著名的证券零售商和投资银行之一，总部位于美国纽约。作为世界的最大的金融管理咨询公司之一，它在财务世界响叮当的名字里占有一席之地。该公司在曼哈顿四号世界金融中心大厦占据了整个34层楼。
Merrill Lynch is now the investment banking 1 and wealth management arm of Bank of America (B of A). It was a publicly owned company before it was bought by B of A in 2009. What had been Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc suffered badly in the 2008 global financial crisis and had to be rescued. The company was founded on Wall Street, New York in 1914 by Charles E. Merrill and Edmund C. Lynch. They made many clever investments to build their reputation as investment bankers. It later expanded into financial services, insurance and investment management. Its 20,000 brokers 2 were so powerful in global finance they became known as the “thundering herd” – a reference to the bull in its logo. The company has 60,000 employees. The ML.com website outlines the firm’s success: “Working with our clients as strategic partners, we create and execute winning solutions.”
