History[]

Envestnet was founded by Jud Bergman in 1999, with Bill Crager as co-founder. The company's initial public offering of stock filed on the NYSE and went public on 28 July 2010. It priced at $9; at the bottom of the range of $9–$10. The major underwriters were Morgan Stanley (MS), UBS AG (UBS), and Barclays (BCS). The company raised $63M by selling 7 million shares.[4]

In 2012, Envestnet purchased Tamarac for $54 million.[5]

In August 2015, Envestnet acquired Yodlee, a cloud-based data analytics company that provides account aggregation and various financial software, for $660 million.[6][7] In the same year, Envestnet also acquired online investment platform Upside in February and financial-planning software provider Finance Logix in May.[6] Envestnet stated that their main goal was to drive the acquisitions to provide a full suite of technology offerings for financial advisers.[6]

In November 2017, the company introduced a redesigned Tamarac platform.[8]

Bergman and his wife, 57-year-old Mary Miller, were killed on October 3, 2019, when a 34-year-old woman crashed her Volkswagen into the taxi they were riding on Highway 101 in San Francisco, California. The woman, 34-year-old Emilie Ross, and the taxi driver, 42-year-old Berkant Ramadan Ahmed, were also killed in the crash. Ross was allegedly under the influence of alcohol and driving on the wrong side of the highway.[9][10][11] Crager took over as interim chief executive officer.[12]

In December 2019, Envestnet entered an agreement with JPMorgan Chase to protect Chase's customers' financial data through an API.[13]

In March 2020, Crager was named permanent CEO after serving as the interim CEO since October 2019.[14]
