Why Diversity & Inclusion matters

FinTech Alliance has partnered with Diversio to help our community become more diverse and inclusive - not just because it is the right thing to do, but because it will create a more innovative and vibrant ecosystem.

The business case for diversity is well established, with financial services companies seeing an average 2-4% revenue growth per 1% increase in diversity. Inclusive companies are better able to attract talent, tap into new markets and create innovative products. Our partnership with Diversio will provide our members with tools that are demonstrated to help companies achieve these results.

FinTech Alliance - Diversity

FinTech Alliance is a founding signatory of the FinTech For All Charter.

The UK FinTech ecosystem is world leading, and offers exciting opportunities for business, investment and talent. However, in recent years, a spotlight has been shone upon a lack of inclusion and diversity, with instances of harassment surfacing in the wake of the #MeToo movement, and gender pay gap reporting.

Today, the call for an inclusive industry is becoming even stronger, with the FCA mandating for a focus on non-financial misconduct and encouraging speak up cultures.

We worked with InChorus, Level39 and Innovate Finance to survey FinTech employees and gain an understanding of the challenges they face in terms of harassment, bias and microaggressions. From this, we have launched a five-point industry charter which supports companies to lean into targeted action.

The FinTech For All Charter is open to organisations of all shapes and sizes – you can join us as a signatory here.
