Diversity in Private Equity
I know a lot of banks have programs / quotas for URM at the analyst level and I was wondering if this is still the case for but side recruiting (at the associate level)?
.
Does being a URM help those candidates?
.
Do the big side firms (PE) care about diversity quotas / programs? Why or why not?
.
Thanks
Seen some LPs pushing diversity as well as other agenda (such as ESG) so GPs care / will care about it.
I'd argue it's probably more influential than in banking but there won't be specific programs for it.
As noted above, massive push in the marketing at the moment to pitch the D&I of the team as a differentiator for LPs (particularly large pensions who have a partial "social" mandate).
