This also is a significant step forward for the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—and SDG 5, in particular, with its focus on gender equality, inclusion, protection, and empowerment.
"To compete and win in a global marketplace, companies have to leverage every social and economic asset,” said Adena Friedman, President and CEO, Nasdaq. “Nasdaq strongly believes that women’s empowerment is a critical pillar of business value creation, global sustainability and essential to creating inclusive, prosperous economies. Nasdaq is committed to giving women every opportunity to succeed and thrive because it ultimately drives better outcomes for our business and stakeholders.”
Commitment to the WEPs is the latest step in Nasdaq’s engagement on diversity and inclusion:
Among diversity-related initiatives that impact global economies, the firm is working with the UN Women Global Innovation Coalition for Change, which is a dynamic partnership between UN Women and key representatives from the private sector, academic and not-for-profit institutions. As part of this initiative, Nasdaq is focused on developing the innovation market to work better for women and to accelerate the achievement of gender equality and women’s empowerment. “Nasdaq has long been a signatory and supporter of the UN Global Compact,” said Evan Harvey, Global Head of Sustainability, Nasdaq. “That work requires an annual communication of progress on gender equality and economic inclusion, and offers us an ongoing platform to discuss these values and engage stakeholders on business impact.”
