Deutsche Bank’s Post

📣 WE STAND FOR DIVERSITY 🤝 #Diversity, #Equity and #Inclusion have a central role in the #BankingonValues movement. Values-based banks strive to foster diverse and equitable communities and promote social inclusion by providing financial access and funding support to individuals and businesses that are often underbanked. Also, by financing organisations that promote a more diverse, equal and inclusive society. Every day as a global network, the Global Alliance for Banking on Values (GABV) lives diversity across countries, regions and cultures. The world is complex, and so are the challenges we face. Our banks operate in countries with different perspectives on human rights, including sexual orientation or gender identity. Nevertheless, each member works to deliver on its commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in its own context and under different formal and informal rules.

Listen in as FHLBank Boston team members discuss how diversity, equity, and inclusion are woven into our day-to-day business and interactions and how we are dedicated to establishing a culture where everyone feels valued and included. #diversity #inclusion #equity #belonging https://lnkd.in/eikvWsBV

Bringing Awareness about digital inclusion from our collaboration with Barclays 💫 Unveiling three strategies to navigate the evolving landscape of digital inclusion. Check out the full report at https://lnkd.in/dcKYK_7J for a deep dive into our findings. In an era where #FinancialServices accessibility is a growing challenge, our research led by Sarah Christie for Barclays UK sheds light on the pressing need for sector-wide engagement and beyond. This work took us on a journey towards greater inclusion as well. We adapted our ethnographic methods continuously, learning how to better engage as we went along, changing methods and means of communication to suit individuals' needs. It emphasised once again that making a difference involves us reconsidering the way we do things, and the flexibility of our approaches, to allow greater representation.

🌍 Diversity and Inclusion in Banking: A Global Transformation in Progress. Banks around the world are facing a crucial challenge: the need to integrate diversity and inclusion into the heart of their strategies. Once seen as homogeneous sectors, major financial institutions are beginning to reinvent themselves to better reflect the diverse societies they serve. In France, groups like BNP Paribas and Société Générale are leading the way by creating dedicated diversity and inclusion departments. Efforts to increase female representation in top management have already yielded significant results, and initiatives aimed at other forms of diversity (youth, seniors, LGBTQIA+, etc.) are gaining momentum. This movement extends far beyond #Europe. Globally, banking leaders such as Citi Bank of America , and HSBC have also ramped up efforts to diversify their teams. In a world where talent comes from all walks of life, it’s crucial to broaden recruitment criteria and adopt inclusive approaches to attract a wide range of profiles in terms of #Gender, #Ethnicity, #Educationalbackground, and #Professionalexperience. The challenge of social diversity is equally critical: studies show that, on a global scale, financial sector leaders predominantly come from privileged backgrounds. Rethinking recruitment practices to include less conventional paths and valuing skills gained through experience is essential. Diversity is a powerful driver of innovation and performance. Diverse teams bring a wealth of perspectives that enhance decision-making and creativity, both of which are vital for addressing the challenges of a rapidly changing world. While progress is being made, there’s still a long way to go. For diversity to become a fully integrated reality in banks worldwide, ongoing and sustained efforts are needed. Let’s continue pushing towards a more representative, inclusive, and equitable banking sector. #DiversityAndInclusion #Finance #Leadership #Talent #Innovation #GlobalBanking #Transformation #InclusionMatters #DiversityInFinance

Did you know the current estimate of neurodivergent people is 15 - 20% of the global population? Did you also know that teams with neurodivergent people tend to perform 30% more efficiently? This is why diversity matters - it's not just a moral issue - it's a business success issue. Differences in thought, approach, style, educational background, lifestyle, lived experience, thinking style, age, gender, disability, neurodiversity, and more ADDS to your business. This is why it is critical to build a team that has difference. And, if you need a little more proof, don't forget the Credit Suisse report that, as far back as 2017, 'companies where women made up at least 15% of senior management were 50% more profitable than those where fewer than 10% of senior managers were female.' #neurodiversity #diversity #inclusion #diversityworks #hradvisory _____ References 1.

March 21st is International Day against Racism, an occasion to again raise awareness for diversity, inclusion, and equity. 🤍 At Deutsche Bank, we believe in the power of unity, understanding, and respect, regardless of race, ethnicity, or background. The International Day against Racism was established by the United Nations to commemorate the lives lost in the Sharpeville massacre of 1960, a tragic event that shook the world and highlighted the urgent need to combat racial discrimination. Since then, this day has served as a global reminder of the ongoing struggle against racism and prejudice in all its forms. Today, as we reflect on the significance of this day, we recognise the importance of fostering an environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive. Diversity is not just a buzzword, it is the essence of who we are as a global community. By embracing diversity, we enrich our perspectives, spark innovation, and create a more inclusive society for future generations. In the workplace, combatting racism is not only a moral imperative but also a business imperative. As we celebrate International Day against Racism, let us recommit ourselves to building a world free from prejudice and discrimination. Together, we can create a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or background. At Deutsche Bank, we are proud to stand with our global community in the fight against racism, today and every day. Join us in taking a stand against racism. Together, we can build a more inclusive and equitable world for all. 🤝 To learn more about our commitment to diversity and inclusion, click here: https://lnkd.in/eMSH-B3E #InternationalDayAgainstRacism #Equity #Inclusion #Diversity #DeutscheBank
