Fidelity Investments, established in 1946, is one of the world's largest financial services companies, managing $7 trillion in assets and led by Abigail Johnson, granddaughter of founder Edward C. Johnson II. The firm provides a vast array of services—from brokerage and mutual funds to retirement planning and cryptocurrency trading—and pioneered innovations like 401(k) products in 1982 and zero-fee mutual funds in 2018. Processing 5.5 million daily trades and managing benefits for over 28,800 businesses, Fidelity also operates a major charitable giving arm and offers its own stablecoin, the Fidelity Digital Dollar. Since taking over as CEO in 2014, Abigail Johnson has steered the company toward financial advice and brokerage, while the founding family retains a roughly 40% ownership stake. In 2026, the company was recognized by Newsweek as one of "America's Most Trustworthy Companies," cementing its reputation in the financial world.
