Charles Schwab Corporation's Founder and Chairman, Mr Charles Schwab, is an avid golfer himself.

His firm, which is the Official Investment Firm of the PGA Tour and the Champions Tour, strives to guide investors along their investing journey, formulate plans, and provide resources to help investors be successful. When Schwab first opened its doors in 1971, the company knew that the key to success would be getting the fundamentals right. By focusing on the basics, the firm managed to take the early market lead, offering a combination of low prices with fast, efficient order executions, and soon became the United States' largest discount broker. Today, the company is one of the US's leading financial services firms with around US$1.83 trillion in client assets. Tom Lehman hoists the Charles Schwab Cup in 2011
