Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB)
Ethos is proud to be an ILPA Diversity in Action initiative signatory signaling our commitment to improving diversity, equity and inclusion in the industry through action.
To join the Initiative, Ethos provided a summary of certain concrete actions, sourced from the Initiative Framework, that we are taking to promote DEIB within our organization and in the wider industry.
As a signatory, we participate in regular roundtable discussions, working groups and surveys to provide the industry with greater transparency on the state of DEIB today and on DEIB best practices that will move private markets forward.
