About Lazard

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

Lazard is based in New York, New York and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on NYSE under the ticker LAZ. The SEC classifies its business as investment advice. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $3.10bn and net income of $236.8m. At that date it held total assets of $4.94bn and shareholders' equity of $873.7m.

In its own words

Founded in 1848, Lazard is a global financial advisory and asset management firm with operations in North and South America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia. Lazard provides advice on mergers and acquisitions, capital markets and capital solutions, restructuring and liability management, geopolitics, and other strategic matters, as well as asset management and investment solutions to institutions, corporations, governments, partnerships, family offices, and high net worth individuals. We aim to deliver independent, differentiated advice and solutions grounded in contextual alpha—the broad insight and judgment needed to navigate macroeconomic, geopolitical, and other factors that we believe help leaders see beyond what the world sees today.

We focus primarily on two business segments: Financial Advisory and Asset Management. We believe that the mix of our activities across business segments, geographic regions, industries and investment strategies helps to diversify and stabilize our revenue stream.
