Preventing people from fully participating in the capital marketplace limits the potential growth of our economy. Unfortunately, this is the position we now find ourselves in with over 98% of asset managers in the U.S. being white men. This overrepresentation of white male asset managers puts our economy at risk because a predominately homogenous group does not meet the needs of an increasingly diverse populace.  We must turn the tide and undo the generations of divestment and discrimination that have particularly excluded Black people, women and those who are indigenous to their lands from fairly and fully participating in the economic marketplace.
