Diversity, Equity
and Inclusion at
Fiera Capital

At Fiera Capital, we firmly believe that embracing a diversity of thought and perspective fuels our ability to generate innovative solutions, enabling us to build sustainable prosperity for all our clients.

Creating a respectful, inclusive and supportive culture is integral to our ability to collaborate, generate competitive business insights and make better decisions. As we continue to grow, we aspire to achieve a level of diversity that reflects the communities and organizations we serve and support around the globe.

Since the outset of our diversity, equity and inclusion (“DE&I”) journey in 2021, we've been steadfast in our commitment to meaningful action. We've focused on initiatives to bolster our talent pipeline by actively promoting the inclusion of women in management roles and advocating for increased representation of underrepresented racial and ethnic groups. Additionally, we've worked to create a workplace where every individual feels valued and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives.

The implementation and success of Fiera Capital’s DE&I strategy are driven by the collective efforts of employees from across the organization and led by the Global Head of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and a group of nearly 50 Fiera Capital employees who make up the Global DE&I Council and Ambassador Network.
