Advisory | Technology | Solutions - Independent Experts Leading the Derivatives and Debt Markets.
Through our blend of expert advisory services and proven technologies, we enable companies to develop effective financial strategies and successfully execute programs that optimize their business goals.
Founded by Mike Bontrager in 1991, Chatham is an employee-owned, independent market leader. Our global team of capital markets experts, risk management advisors, CPAs, lawyers, quantitative analysts, and technology developers serve more than 1,800 clients annually.
As a purpose-driven organization, we are committed to making a positive impact for our clients, our associates, our communities, and the capital markets at large. We are committed to partnering with our clients so they can better understand their specific challenges and opportunities. We then leverage our proven capabilities with tailored strategies and solutions to best meet their goals.
At Chatham, we believe that our values are a foundational element to who we are as a company. Like many companies we have done the work to articulate our values. In hindsight, the articulation of the values was the easy work. The hard work is the ongoing debate and discussion to ensure that we are living them out.
We believe that everyone at Chatham has a responsibility to ensure that we are all living out the values. None of us are able to live them out completely and we may violate them without even knowing it. Continually aligning ourselves to these values and affirming and challenging each other is the process that strengthens the entire organization through better understanding of these values, and this is often confirmed from those who get to know us and spend time with us.
Our values are rather common and simple…
- Act with honesty and integrity
- Respect each individual
- Do excellent work
- Work together
- Build long-term relationships
