Community and Belonging Strategy

At AB, we want every person to have the opportunity to succeed based on merit, regardless of race, color, religion, creed, ancestry, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status, citizenship status, sexual orientation, gender identity expression, military or veteran status, or any other criterion. Why is this so important? To us, teams enriched with people of distinctive experiences, perspectives, and backgrounds make us better. They help us generate better ideas, reach more balanced decisions, engage our communities and help our clients achieve better outcomes.

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)

ERGs are at the heart of AB’s diversity, equity and inclusion effort.

By informing and educating—and reaching out to our clients and communities—ERGs help the firm develop its business as well as recruit, retain and develop AB employees all over the world.
