BRITISH FOUNDER | Mr Clement Aghayere, British, Chief Executive [ CEO ] at Africa bridge capital management London The United Kingdom, is one of the most senior members of the firm 's executive team. He's also a member of our proposed Africa bridge capital Management London The United Kingdom | Diversity Leadership Council and is closely involved in promoting equal opportunities and fostering an open culture across the firm . he describes how Africa bridge capital management London The United Kingdom intends to becoming more diverse, and why the investment banking industry is a welcoming place for anyone with the right abilities and ambitions.
How has investment banking changed in terms of diversity since you joined the industry? When I started in the business 23 years ago it was very male and very white. There were some women working in investment banks, but definitely not as many as there are now. Today, there is also a much greater ethnic mix and people of many different nationalities. As a result, there's a cultural and linguistic diversity that we didn't have in previous decades.
There used to be a real tendency for people to try to fit in. Everyone wanted to play golf and generally be seen doing what everyone else in the industry did. But now opportunities to have your own identity have really opened up.
Why is Africa bridge capital management London, The United Kingdom keen to support and promote increased diversity at the ? First and foremost, diversity has helped our business grow because we're able to work more closely with clients whose organisations are also becoming more diverse. Nothing is more off-putting for clients with a diverse senior management team than sitting across the table from a group of bankers who are all white middle-aged men - it's a pretty stark contrast and it doesn't go unnoticed. A diverse organisation also means a range of viewpoints and a balanced assessment of issues because a mix of people, whether in terms of gender or race or culture, bring a mix of perspectives. I think this mix is important for decision making because every organisation needs to guard be wary of group think.
Diversity initiatives at Africa bridge capital management London The United Kingdom , In what ways could the industry still improve in terms of diversity? There's no question that the industry has further to go. But what I would say is that it's encouraging that it's come so far so quickly. For example, a decade ago it would have been relatively unusual for a Firm and or bank to have a LGBT network, whereas now we'd question why any large bank without one hasn't set one up.
What thoughts do you have for students considering going into investment banking? The advice I would give to anyone looking at any career is that you've got to choose something that you really want to do. You're going to do best at something you feel passionate about or have a natural skill for. And if you decide on these grounds that you want to work in finance - apply, whatever your identity or background. I'd be shocked if anyone who went to work in an investment bank these days wasn't made to feel welcome and accepted. Our business is broad-ranging in every sense, so any organisation without a workforce to match is going to struggle to compete.
