History

Founded in New York City by George B. Buck, Sr., as an actuarial firm in 1916,[3] today the firm has more than 1,500 employees and affiliates in nearly 200 global locations.[4]

Buck remained an independent organization until 1997 when it was acquired by Mellon Financial.[5] The Buck Consultants brand name was scrapped in late 2003 when Mellon unified various business lines under the name Mellon Human Resource & Investor Solutions HR&IS).[6] ACS acquired Mellon’s HR business in 2005[7] and reintroduced the Buck Consultants brand.
