Change happens when we challenge the status quo; dare to ask the difficult questions; explore beyond our own experiences; and refuse to accept inequity as inalterable.

In 1984, our founder, Joe Mansueto, recognized inequity in the availability and distribution of financial information. He set out to change these practices, democratizing and demystifying investing and giving more people access to the tools, products, and information they needed to achieve their financial goals. This simple, revolutionary idea became the foundation of our company and the core of our mission: empowering investor success.

Our mission hasn’t changed, but the ways in which we live it, the lenses through which we interpret it, and the metrics we use to measure it, have.

Today, we recognize diversity, equity, and inclusion as integral to our mission and inextricable from our actions. From examining our internal policies and practices to hiring and advancing a more diverse cohort of colleagues, mobilizing our research capabilities to deepening our education and understanding, we’re committed to leveraging our partnerships, platforms, and position to redefine outcomes, advance positive change, and lead by example.

The work of creating an inclusive, equitable world never ends; there is always more we can do, more we must do. This is the work of real change. It’s a journey, not a destination. And it’s one we’re on together.
