The Investment Manager Diversity Pledge
From ABFE. Becoming a signatory to the investment manager diversity pledge allows your organization to publicly demonstrate its commitment to diversity and inclusive investment management practices and places your organization at the heart of a community of foundations and endowments seeking to ensure a level playing field for minority and women investment managers. Your commitment acknowledges that hiring a diverse pool of quality investment managers is not contradictory to the goal of maximizing returns or fiduciary standard of care; it demonstrates a focus on finding the best investment management talent and alignment with the mission of community philanthropy by helping to build wealth in communities of color and among women.
