About Us
Corporate Responsibility

Embracing Diversity and Inclusion
We aim to create a safe, inclusive workplace for all our staff and believe diversity and inclusion are key to our success. Our goal is for diversity to be reflected and our workplace to be inclusive, so that all employees can be themselves and feel welcome and accepted.
We currently have several policies and programs in place that foster diversity and inclusion, both at the hiring stage and during our employees’ tenure, including our workplace safety policy and program, our accessibility policy, our pregnancy and parental leave policy, as well as our training and development HR policy. In addition, we also:
- Launched an Equity, Diversity and Inclusion initiative in 2020 to assess our internal practices and deliver a strategy for positive outcomes.
- Partnered with Diversio, a Canadian data and analytics company that focuses on supporting organizations in becoming more inclusive, to help us evaluate diversity and inclusion.
- Initiated an internal Female Mentorship Program in 2020 to help identify and develop Beutel Goodman’s next generation of female leaders.
- In 2021, we signed RIA Canada’s Canadian Investor Statement on Diversity & Inclusion, pledging to both engage with portfolio companies to enhance disclosure, adopt policies and targets, address hindrances to diversity and inclusion, and improve our own practices.
- In 2022, we became a Silver Sponsor of Women Investment Professionals, an organization that provides a forum for networking and professional development for women involved in institutional investing, including plan sponsors, investment managers, consultants, accountants and attorneys.
- In 2023, we adopted the CFA Institute Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Code for Investment Professionals in the U.S. and Canada, which provides investment industry organizations with an action-oriented and principles-based framework to drive measurable and meaningful change concerning DEI within their own organizations.
Our Community
We believe strongly in the power of community. To give back to ours, we encourage our employees to:
- Participate in firm-wide fundraising initiatives annually;
- Volunteer for causes and campaigns that hold personal attachment. To support these efforts, Beutel Goodman employees are eligible to take an annual volunteer day, in addition to other types of paid leave;
- Participate on various charity boards and committees, including programs that directly support Indigenous communities; and
- Volunteer their time to help run the Beutel Goodman Charitable Foundation.
Our Commitment to the Environment
Although Beutel Goodman is a relatively small organization, we are nonetheless cognizant of our own carbon footprint and have monitoring and reduction initiatives in place.
- Our office building, owned and operated by RioCAN, has obtained the highest environmental certification from the Building Owners and Managers Association of Canada (BOMA Canada), Canada’s largest environmental building assessment and certification program. Read more about RioCAN’s sustainability initiatives at the Yonge Eglinton Centre, where our office is located.
- We have implemented printing reduction initiatives, as well as recycling and composting programs in our employee common areas.
- Our Responsible Investment Policy Statement includes our Climate Statement, which acknowledges the importance of addressing climate change as part of our investment process. We recognize the goals of the Paris Agreement and officially support the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
