As part of the Aviva Group - the UK's largest insurance company - we are uniquely positioned to combine our insurance heritage with our investment capabilities to deliver the outcomes that matter most to today's investor.

The future is full of questions.

At Aviva Investors we're people with a purpose. To be with you today, for a better tomorrow. We bring this to life by ensuring managing risk is at the heart of how we all work.

By actively identifying, nurturing, and rewarding people's unique skills, they build a better working environment and a more effective and innovative service.- They believe a company that doesn't welcome new ideas, skillsets, beliefs, cultures, and ethnicities from different sectors cannot grow or adapt to global challenges.

To them, the greater the diversity, the greater the business.- To encourage inclusivity in the investment industry, they are proud to be part of The Diversity Project, which aims to achieve diversity across gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, age and disability.

Their CEO, Mark Versey, sits on the advisory board and is the Aviva Investors Chair for the Diversity & Inclusion.- They believe that gender diversity is important for morale, productivity, and performance across their business.
