Employer stories
Investment20/20 plays an integral part in inspiring and educating the next generation on the vital role that investment management has in tackling climate change.
It is time for the investment industry to put allegiances to one side, and stand together to solve this challenge. Under-representation goes well beyond company loyalties. The investment industry is built on creating solutions to problems. We must come together as one to solve this.

We’re proud to be part of this important industry initiative for over five years, an initiative which continues to move from strength to strength. Each year we’re excited to welcome a new cohort of trainees who quickly become valued team members, with many securing permanent roles. We’re all the better, as an organization, for the partnership. There’s many learning opportunities to be gained by both sides. From our perspective, we very much welcome the diverse range of perspectives that our trainees can bring and look forward to continuing our partnership with the Investment20/20.

Employer stories
As someone who left school and entered the workplace at 16 one of the appeals of the Investment20/20 programme is it enables us to tap into a significant talent pool of school leavers that our traditional graduate programmes wouldn’t consider. We’re incredibly proud to be part of the Investment20/20 programme and what it has achieved on behalf of the industry and we look forward to further developing our relationship with them.
