<strong>Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion</strong> Code champions positive systemic change in the investment industry, reflecting and addressing challenges that come with demographic, cultural, and societal variations across markets. This transformative code provides a structured <strong>framework</strong> supporting employers, executive leaders, investment professionals, DEI specialists, and HR professionals in crafting impactful and measurable strategies to enable better people management in the investment industry. </p> <p>First launched in the <strong>US and Canada</strong> and recently launched in the <strong>UK, nearly 200</strong> organizations have now signed up to the DEI Code, building strong momentum for adaptation and adoption of the Code in more financial markets globally under the oversight of a dedicated <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.cfainstitute.org/en/about/governance/committees/dei-committees" target="_blank">DEI Steering Committee</a>. Oversight includes strategic advice on all aspects of our industry DEI work, including the DEI Code application process and <strong>metrics-based reporting</strong>. </p> <p>DEI Code signatories submit confidential, annual progress reports using the <strong>Reporting Framework</strong>. In turn, annual reporting enables CFA Institute to consolidate signatory DEI Code data into new <strong>industry statistics</strong>, providing a comprehensive and representative benchmark reference to further the investment industry’s DEI ambitions to better serve diverse clients. </p> <p>Join us in shaping a more inclusive future for the investment industry.
