It has been half a century since Stonewall sparked the movement for greater LGBT+ equality, but there still remains a lot to be done.
Through its #50for50 campaign, financial services representative organisation LGBT Great reached out to the global investment and asset management sector to encourage it to do more than adopt the rainbow for Pride.
The result has seen top executives from some of the biggest firms in the industry pledge their support to improve inclusion and diversity.
As the official industry media partner of LGBT Great, Last Word is honoured to be able to reveal the full list:
