Our History
FGS Global has its roots in four venerable firms across the world of strategic communications: Finsbury, Hering Schuppener, The Glover Park Group and Sard Verbinnen & Co.
Finsbury was founded in 1994 by Roland Rudd to fill a gap in the market for superior financial communications counsel in the UK. Over the following two decades, the firm expanded from a single office in London to twelve offices across the UK, Europe, the United States, the Middle East and Asia. The firm was acquired by WPP in 2001 and its US expansion was accelerated in 2013 when it merged with Robinson Lerer Montgomery, a titan in the world of crisis communications.
