About this event

Why is having a diverse workforce important in the investment management industry?

While most people would agree it’s simply the right thing to do, a key benefit of having a diverse workforce is diversity of thought. Diversity of thought allows firms to understand and speak to their whole client base. Diversity of thought is a source of innovation. Diversity of thought avoids homogeneity of thought. In short, we believe that building a diverse workforce, where people can be their authentic selves and bring a range of experience and perspectives to their roles, is the means to a happier workforce and a more productive and more profitable business.

However, achieving diversity is not without its challenges.

As part of the Diversity Project, InterInvest focuses specifically on LGBT+ diversity and inclusion.

At this event, our speakers and member firms will focus on how we can work together to ensure that LGBT+ talent is attracted to our industry, and forms a key part of the workforce going forward.

We will:

  • Discuss the importance of attracting and retaining talent from the LGBT+ community
  • Examine the challenges the investment industry faces in attracting that talent
  • Look at what firms are already doing well, and what we can learn from them

Who is the event for?

Recruitment firms, HR professionals, and InterInvest members
