Business Resource Groups (BRGs)

BRGs are company-sponsored and employee-led communities with a mission to champion the full participation of our employees at all levels. While each BRG focuses on a specific dimension of diversity, they are all guided by our core value of inclusion and open to all employees, regardless of their cultural backgrounds, sexual orientation, or origin. In fact, we encourage participation from all employees.

Our Business Resource Groups (BRGs) are one of many diversity initiatives championing the full participation and inclusion of FactSetters. BRGs support the recruitment, development, and retention of our diverse talent with participation open to all employees. FactSet supports the beside employee networks.

Transparency and accountability

FactSet’s leadership is committed to improving diversity representation as part of our DE&I strategy. To this end, FactSet will continue investing in DE&I resources and initiatives. Together, we will work to recruit, advance, and engage talent at FactSet with an inclusive culture unified by the FactSet spirit of going above and beyond. By reporting our workforce demographics as part of our DE&I strategy, we are making a visible step in our commitment. By 2023 we aspire to measurably change the make-up of our employee demographics to better include underrepresented groups. We will continue to report on our progress in our annual Sustainability Report and to otherwise increase transparency as part of our DE&I strategy.
