Equity & Inclusion

We believe business leaders have a responsibility to create value for all stakeholders by taking on initiatives that improve society at large.

We are committed to social impact and sustainability, and prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion. Over 50% of our Managing Directors and above and 60% of our Board of Directors identify as women.

RF|Binder has established a Social Justice Committee, which focuses on deepening our social justice work both internally and with our clients and community.
