AXA, a global financial protection and retirement leader,
announced today that it is an official gold sponsor of NYC Pride
2015 (June 23-28), one of the largest Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual
and Transgender (LGBT) events in the nation.
“At AXA, diversity and inclusion are embedded in our values and
our practice. Our sponsorship of NYC Pride is just one part of our
steadfast commitment to creating a truly inclusive workplace and
organization that reflects the customers we serve and the
communities in which we live and work,” said David Karr, chairman
of AXA Advisors and executive sponsor of the AXA Pride Employee
Resource Group (ERG).
AXA was recently recognized as one of the “best places to work”
for LGBT equality by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation,
earning a perfect score of 100 percent on their 2015 Corporate
Equality Index. AXA embraces an inclusive work environment that
respects all people and encourages everyone to bring their whole
selves to work each day. As part of AXA’s ongoing commitment to
promoting inclusion, the company recently launched “Allies@AXA
Pride,” AXA Group’s first global ERG. This group, along with the
national ERG “AXA Pride,” creates and sustains an AXA presence in
the LGBT community, fostering advocacy and action across the 59
countries where AXA’s employees and clients live and work.
AXA was an industry pioneer in offering life insurance benefits
to same-sex couples. Continuing this tradition, AXA Advisors will
be hosting an LGBT Summit during Pride week. This annual
educational conference is attended by our diverse and dedicated
teams of financial professionals and provides a forum to discuss
how best to serve the life and retirement needs of the LGBT
community.
