He came to the United States in 1848 with his father Edward Balbach Sr. (1804–1890), who started the Balbach family fortune by collecting gold and silver dust from Newark jewelry shop floors, turning it into bullion.

Inspired by the first major assignment of McKinsey & Company in Europe, a corporate restructuring project for Royal Dutch Shell in 1958, the trio had started pushing the idea of introducing strategy consulting as a new business activity within Bosboom & Hegener. It was their conviction this new activity could be sold at higher rates to more senior executives than Bosboom & Hegeners bread and butter business of executing time analyses on shop floors. When their ideas were turned down, they decided to prove them right by setting out on their own.
