The Baker Group LP is a mid-sized investment banking firm based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, founded in 1979. It serves community banks nationwide by helping them manage investment portfolios and interest rate risk. The firm combines software solutions from Baker’s Software Solutions with its investment experience to provide integrated guidance on risk and portfolio strategy. Clients can address both topics in a single conversation, reflecting a holistic advisory approach. The organization emphasizes in-house capabilities, integrating technology with investment expertise rather than outsourcing. This approach supports community banks in balancing risk and investment needs with strategic objectives. In October 2025, longtime president Doug Kumm stepped down after more than 36 years of service, marking a notable leadership transition.
