Organization/History

Caywood-Scholl Capital Management LLC (“Caywood-Scholl”) is wholly owned by RCM. RCM, in turn, is owned by Allianz SE (“Allianz”).

Allianz is one of the largest investment management organizations in the world offering investors a diverse range of fixed income and equity advisory styles and services.

Founded in 1986

Caywood-Scholl was founded in April 1986 as a privately held California corporation specializing in the management of leveraged finance securities and is an investment advisor registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Acquired by RCM in 1998

In November of 1998, Caywood-Scholl was strategically acquired by RCM and became a wholly owned subsidiary. The relationship provides Caywood-Scholl with all the sophisticated resources of a global money management firm along with resources unique to RCM, such as GrassrootsSM Research. This allows us to focus our resources on what we do best—managing credit portfolios.

Merged with Allianz SE in 2001

On July 23, 2001, Dresdner Bank AG (RCM's former parent company) and Allianz joined to create a leading integrated financial services firm, with asset management as one of four key business units.
