First Eagle Investments traces its heritage to a family owned bank, Gebr. Arnhold (Arnhold Brothers) founded in 1864 in Dresden, Germany. In 1931, Hans Arnhold combined his firm with S. Bleichroeder to form Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder. In 1937, Hans Arnhold as Chairman and his son-in-law, Stephen Kellen, as CEO restarted the firm's activities in New York City, where the firm remains headquartered until the present day. The firm launched its first offshore fund, First Eagle Fund N.V in 1967, followed by its first US-registered mutual fund, First Eagle Fund of America in 1987 whose initial portfolio manager was Michael Kellen. In 1999, Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder  acquired the majority share of Société Générale Asset Management, a subsidiary of the French bank Société Générale whose investment team managed global value equity strategies. At that time, the firm became the investment adviser to the First Eagle Funds, including the SocGen International Fund, later named the First Eagle Global Fund. The team managing these strategies became First Eagle's Global Value Team. In 2002 the firm exited investment banking and global businesses to focus exclusively on investment management. In 2009 Arnhold and S. Bleichroeder renamed into First Eagle Investment Management. Private equity companies Blackstone Group and Corsair Capital acquired a majority stake in the firm in 2015.
