LGBT+

" The truth is we spend as much time with our colleagues as we do with our friends and families, and therefore it is as important for me as an Ally to support my colleagues in being their true selves as much as I support my family to be their true selves. Similarly, as we serve our clients, it is important for them to know that we support not only their financial needs, but who they are as people. When we are our true selves, we perform better, and grow stronger as a firm and as a society."

Derek Young, President Japan

Meet Ember Overal, Service Specialist in Client Services

"So, let’s start things off. We’ve changed our name. I’m Ember.

There’ll be a lot of changes for you in the pipeline. And honestly, most of those aren’t changes so much as recognising things about yourself. We’re trans, and we don’t realise it until we’re getting into our late 20s."

Read Ember Overal's letter to her younger self, where she talks about her journey so far - including how she realised she was trans.
