24 of the Best Fund Firms For Disability Inclusion In 2024

Reported by Neil Anderson, Managing Editor

At least 24 companies in the U.S. mutual fund and ETF business are winning praise for their efforts related to disability inclusion.

The folks at Disability:IN and the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) recently recognized a number of companies with the 2024 Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion list. The first edition of the list debuted nine years ago, and it is drawn from their 2024 Disability Equality Index. For the index, they score companies across five categories: community engagement, culture & leadership, employment practices, enterprise-wide access, and supplier diversity. Index scores are on a scale from 0 to 100, and companies with scores of 80 or better are included in the annual list.

This year, at least 19 companies with U.S. asset management businesses received the top index score of 100 for their U.S. operations. Those winners include: BlackRock, BNY Mellon, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Goldman Sachs, the Hartford, J.P. Morgan, MassMutual, New York Life, Northern Trust, Northwestern Mutual, Principal, Prudential (parent of PGIM), State Street (parent of SSGA), TIAA (parent of Nuveen), Transamerica, Vanguard, and Voya.

AllianceBernstein, Ameriprise (parent of Columbia Threadneedle), Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH), and Empower also landed on the list, scoring 90 each. Sun Life's MFS scored 80.

"The Disability Equality Index is an objective, reflective, forward-thinking, and confidential disability rating tool designed to assist business in advancing inclusion practices," the Disability:IN team writes. "It is a comprehensive benchmark that helps companies build a roadmap of measurable, tangible actions."

At least 18 companies in the U.S. retirement plan recordkeeping business also landed on the list this year. Our sister publication 401kWire has more details
