BBY holds a unique place in the Australian securities markets. Because of our business model, size and local management, our clients know they can count on us to continue to put them at the heart of everything we do.

BBY has invested in leading-edge technology to ensure we have a highly scalable business and we continue to recruit and develop the very best people in the Australian market.

As a firm we determine our own future, which is the envy of our competitors who operate either as a Branch of a global giant, or are smaller firms who lack the connectivity, experience or technologies to realise the very best opportunities for their clients.

Dating back to 1987, BBY takes its name from a partnership between J.William Burdett, Graham Buckeridge and Peter Young.

In 2004, a new management team lead by Glenn Rosewall was appointed and the business re-named BBY. At that time, BBY was a small player in the Australian market, having a market share position of number 52 and an annual ASX turnover of A$4.48billion.

In early 2005, the new and revitalised BBY first displayed the sort of market insights and corporate support that have since become our foundations for success. BBY was the first securities firm to provide research coverage of Fortescue Metals Group (FMG), which at the time had a market capitalisation of under A$600M. That same year BBY raised around USD$100M for FMG to assist with expansion plans. Today, FMG is a household name, has a market capitalisation of around A$19B and has realised its shareholders outstanding returns.

In 2009, BBY established a partnership with CIMB Group, Malaysia’s second largest financial services provider and the fifth largest in Southeast Asia by total assets (market capitalisation of around US$22B). The partnership has given BBY an increased presence in Asia through CIMB’s operations and client networks across 13 growth economies.

In August 2011, BBY completed the acquisition of the Private Client network of StoneBridge, which signalled the creation of a significant new player in the Australian private client market. The acquisition also meant BBY has a truly national presence, with additional offices in Western Australia (Perth), South Australia (Adelaide) and Queensland (Gold Coast).

Relationships have always driven BBY’s approach to doing business. Our clients lie at the heart of everything we do.

BBY is committed to providing the very highest quality service to our clients, whether through corporate advice, institutional sales and trading, private client services, equities research, broker dealer services or funds management.

We also understand that choosing the right investment partner is not always easy and our clients must be satisfied that they are working with a team that has the right combination of persistence, determination, deep market knowledge, global networks and strategic thinking.

BBY works hard to be our client’s partner of choice for the long term and we are committed to achieving our clients’ investment objectives at all times.

BBY is proud of our achievements. The stellar growth of the companies we’ve supported and the realisation of our private client’s financial objectives are ample reward, however we also receive plaudits and awards from the broking industry and the Australian business community more generally.

Since our re-launch in 2004 as BBY, we have received a few awards of which we are particularly proud.

In 2008, BBY won an International Stevie Award for Best New Financial Product in the International Business Awards for our "Valuation and Momentum Monitor" approach to stock-picking. In 2008 we also won the "Best Corporate Deal of the Year" in The Australian Stockbrokers Foundation Hall of Fame for our capital raisings for Linc Energy, Australia’s leader in Clean Coal Technology.

BBY is also very proud of the rewards our team of Research Analysts continually receive for their stock coverage and trading insights. Without exception, our Analysts score in the uppermost quartile in the industries major peer reviews.
