Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at LSEG
We’re creating an inclusive culture where everyone truly belongs.
We aim to be a workplace that is truly representative of all parts of society and our customers. A place that is fair and inclusive for all, where diverse perspectives are valued and leveraged throughout the Group.
Building a sense of belonging for all
A culture of belonging is core to our purpose. Embracing diverse perspectives and respect is built into our values and Code of Conduct.
We have nine Inclusion Networks that play a pivotal role in our EDI agenda worldwide. These are Accessibility, Asian Affinity, Black Employees Inspired Networking Group (BEING), Latinxs for Empowerment, Advancement & Development (LEAD), Multi-Faith, Pride, Veterans Support, Women Inspired and Working Families.

Creating equitable and inclusive processes across the entire employee experience
Equity is an integral part of our culture.
We routinely review our policies to ensure they support our people and values —ensuring support for progression, and engagement on a global scale.
Data is an integral part of our business and we use data to inform and guide our EDI work. Our data-led approach means we can focus and clearly measure our progress and impact.
Building our globally diverse leadership team who are accountable for our inclusive culture
Our goal is to champion diversity, starting with a leadership team that reflects our mission and values, and promotes a culture of belonging.
Our leaders are accountable for owning and living our culture every day. We expect leaders to embed inclusive behaviours in their day-to-day work and recognise how even the smallest decisions can foster inclusion.
Progress against our leadership goals
We recognise we still have more to do, and to help us track our progress, we have diversity goals relating to gender and ethnicity for our senior leadership community.
Our goals:
- Gender: maintain at least 40% women in senior leadership.
- Ethnicity: 25% underrepresented ethnic groups in senior leadership roles by 2027.
