New York, NY (Dec. 12, 2022) - Global investment manager Ninety One has been recognized as one of the 2022 Best Places to Work in Money Management, announced today by Pensions & Investments. The publication’s 11th-annual survey is dedicated to identifying and recognizing the best employers in the money management industry. This is the third year in a row that the firm has been honored.
Since its founding over 30 years ago, Ninety One has remained true to its entrepreneurial and diverse heritage by cultivating an environment where employees are encouraged to innovate, ask questions and continuously grow. The company has brought this forward-thinking mindset and commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion into both its internal practices and client investment strategies. For example, Ninety One is a vocal voice on the just transition to net zero and conducts research on the role corporate culture can play in driving growth and returns.
“As their employees attest, the companies named to this year’s Best Places to Work list demonstrate a commitment to building and maintaining a strong workplace culture,’’ said P&I Executive Editor Julie Tatge. “Even as firms grappled with volatile markets and stresses from the pandemic, their employees said they felt strong support from their managers, enabling them to do their best work.’’
Philip Anker, CEO of Ninety One North America: “Our organic culture is a powerful driver of our success and allows us to build meaningful and enduring relationships with our clients and attract talented people to the firm. We remain committed to delivering a best-in-class work environment focused on providing individuals the freedom to create and have impact on our businesses no matter where they are in their professional development, while also having real purpose – we believe active investing can be a force for good and are committed to investing for a better tomorrow.”
Pensions & Investments partnered with Best Companies Group, a research firm specializing in identifying great places to work, to conduct a two-part survey of employers and their employees.
The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies.
“Pensions & Investments is proud to honor the Best Places to Work in Money Management for the 11th year. A strong workplace culture that supports talent, advocates progress and drives innovation is paramount to driving the best outcomes and these asset managers demonstrate that. Congratulations to the 2022 honorees for fostering healthy and inclusive workplaces in the face of a rapidly evolving and challenging market,” said P&I Chief Operating Officer, Nikki Pirrello.
