COMPANY

Part of a bewildering M&A trail. In 1984, American Express acquired Lehman Brothers Kuhn Loeb for $360M, becoming Shearson Lehman/American Express.

Internally, Lehman merged with E. F. Hutton in 1988, becoming Shearson Lehman Hutton. But Hutton was pried off once again, and this entity became Shearson Lehman Brothers.

American Express sold Shearson Lehman Brothers to Travelers Group in 1993. Travelers then spun off Lehman Brothers without Shearson in 1994.
