Our people
Our purpose is to work together to build better financial futures for our clients. To achieve this, we have embedded core values of integrity and trust across the company, which form the bedrock of how we service our clients. We strongly believe that Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) helps improve our performance and the quality of service our clients receive. That's why we are committed to making sure we're able to drive real change in this critical area.
Anne Richards, Vice Chair, Fidelity International
We strongly believe that D&I helps improve our performance and the quality of service our clients receive. That’s why we deliver mandatory training, roll-out inclusive policies and processes to let our people thrive and encourage our people to put our commitments into action.
We also hold our suppliers to similarly high standards; collaborate sector-wide; lend our support to local communities; raise awareness where we can and celebrate the positive steps we make.
Quite simply, D&I matters at Fidelity.
A focused approach
To make sure we're able to deliver real change we're concentrating on five global priorities.
Cultural Diversity
We respect different cultures, nationalities, ethnicities and beliefs.
LGBT+
We accept people for who they are, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity and expression.
Enable
We recognise it is important to improve accessibility and enablement for our employees and clients with different abilities and health conditions.
Gender
We know that addressing any gender imbalances - in terms of representation and pay gap - is not just the right thing to do; we also believe it makes commercial sense.
Social Mobility
We believe that talent, determination and core values should decide someone's career, not their social or economic background.
Measuring up
We’re convinced that D&I makes us a better company and we have introduced a series of measures to keep us on track.
- Objectives - Each D&I priority has defined objectives incorporated into our business goals.
- Targets - To continuously improve our performance, we set goals and targets.
- Reviews - We use data to track progress, as well as measure (voluntarily and confidentially) and audit our performance to drive continuous improvement.
- Accountability - We hold senior leaders accountable for our D&I progress.
- Customer experience - We constantly assess and enhance our clients’ experience to meet diverse needs.
