Dear clients, colleagues and friends,

One of our firm values is stewardship, which we define as acting responsibly. And our more than 17,000 people live that value every day. Stewardship is all about leaving things better than you found them. It’s about making progress to better our firm, our communities, our people and our world. There is no destination—only forward progress. There’s always something more we can do.

With stewardship in mind, we continue to double down on our commitment to sustainability. This year, we formed the ESG steering committee, which I have the honor of chairing while working alongside our CEO and other executive leaders of our firm. Bringing together governance for our inclusion efforts, environmental initiatives, community-giving platforms and more, is helping us drive positive change for our people, clients, communities and the firm overall.

We’re proud of the progress we’ve made to date and look forward to continuing to evolve and enhance our efforts in a rapidly changing world.

Sincerely,

Ty Beasley, Chief Talent Officer and ESG Steering Committee Chair
