Transformation

Global inclusion optimizes talent and firm resources – it is a catalyst for innovation and growth.

As a global asset manager, with offices in over 30 countries, we believe diversity of perspectives, experiences, and an inclusive culture are at the forefront of our ability to anticipate trends, identify opportunities and craft solutions to meet the ever-changing needs of our clients.

Our strategic framework is based on three pillars: our people, our practices, and our presence. We aspire to:

Become an employer of choice for top talent by empowering diverse perspectives at every level.

Strengthen inclusive leadership capability and workplace processes to remain the business partner of choice.

Work with our peers to establish asset management as the industry of choice by building strategic partnerships to broaden our network and unlock new opportunities. 

Global inclusion is part of our growth story: serving clients' evolving needs, unlocking enterprise value, and empowering our people worldwide.”
