PIMCO expands gender equality partnerships with Nomi Network, Women for Women International and Girls Who Invest
Newport Beach, California (February 26, 2020) – PIMCO, one of the world’s premier fixed income investment managers, has chosen Nomi Network, Women for Women International and Girls Who Invest as its key gender equality partners for 2020. The enhanced partnerships reflect PIMCO’s continued commitment to gender equality – within the investment management industry and throughout communities worldwide.
PIMCO has worked with each of these gender equality focused organizations in various capacities over the years1, alongside many others, but will expand its partnerships with all three organizations to increase impact and reach in 2020. The enhanced partnerships with Nomi Network and Women for Women International will support the economic empowerment of vulnerable women and girls. PIMCO’s partnership with Girls Who Invest will continue to help further build a talent pipeline of women investors in the asset management industry.
“Our focus on gender equality reflects our belief that everybody, regardless of gender, deserves equal access to opportunities, prospects and economic security,” said Emmanuel Roman, CEO of PIMCO. “We champion gender equality and diversity right here at PIMCO, throughout the investment management industry and in communities worldwide, not only because we believe it is right, but because we believe diversity in any industry and any community, makes us all stronger.”
The partnerships are part of PIMCO’s broader gender equality initiatives, driven in part by PIMCO’s Women & Investing platform which consists of three main focus areas – Women in Investing, Women as Investors and Investing in Women. These expanded partnerships reinforce PIMCO’s commitment to these focus areas.
