Culture

Our culture is shaped by our values and describes what we care about. It is what we believe, how we work, and how we achieve. To this purpose, FEG maintains a culture focused on respect and excellence.

We aim for excellence in everything we do by tapping into each team member’s entrepreneurial spirit and pride of ownership.

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are core elements of FEG’s culture of respect and excellence. We know a diverse group of professionals will achieve better results than a homogeneous one. We believe an inclusive environment fosters a happier and more connected workforce, which ultimately leads to better outcomes and value for our clients.

We measure our progress in each of the following areas:

	Demographics	Ensure annual increases in female and diverse hires across the organization
	Strategies	Identify and execute upon Diversity & Inclusion initiatives annually
	Processes & Procedures	Evaluate Diversity & Inclusion indicators annually; make improvements where needed
	Inclusion Index	Evaluate inclusion sentiment via annual firm-wide survey
	Investment Manager	Expand investment manager due diligence to include information on diversity and inclusion efforts
	Community Impact	Sponsor at least one event per year which aims to foster inclusion and diversity and engage all members of the community.

Community Involvement

FEG is committed to firm-wide community involvement, as this is a natural extension of our work in supporting our clients’ fulfillment of their specific missions. Community involvement helps us understand the work many of our clients do and assists us in staying in touch with our shared values. We actively contribute our time, talent, and resources in support of many important causes:
