Diversity and inclusion

One of our core business principles, as set out in Legal & General Group’s Corporate Sustainability report (site in English), is to value inclusiveness and embrace difference to engage and empower our people.

At LGIM, we strive to make diversity and inclusion part of our everyday conversations and actions. It shapes our approach to our clients, employees and other stakeholders, as well as our position in the financial services industry and wider society. Every member of the leadership team has a formalised objective to embed and strengthen culture, inclusion and diversity through their actions.

Steered by the executive team, diversity and inclusion is embedded in our culture from the way we recruit, develop and connect with employees, to how we show our commitment to responsible investing and corporate governance. To show our commitment to making diversity and inclusion part of everything we do, the role of Head of Inclusion & Culture was created in 2018 with responsibility for driving the evolution and continuous improvement of LGIM’s culture, diversity and inclusion objectives, working closely with the executive team and LEGIT (the Legal & General Inclusion Team).
