Diversity & Inclusion

Fostering Diversity & Inclusion Across Our Business

Diversity & Inclusion Mission

At the FHLBNY, the ideals of mutual respect, teamwork, and serving the diverse communities in our district are at the core of our corporate culture and are the driving force behind our diversity and inclusion efforts. Our collaborative approach to diversity and inclusion also helps facilitate and strengthen the relationships we have with our employees and business partners.

We achieve our diversity and inclusion mission by advocating for access to career and development opportunities that lead to leadership positions for employees, and by engaging in outreach to, and education of our minority, women, and disabled-owned business partners to help improve opportunities to grow their businesses and succeed.

How We Will Achieve Our Diversity & Inclusion Mission

At the FHLBNY, we:

  • Help ensure that women, minority, and individuals with disabilities are considered for leadership and other positions at the FHLBNY when there is an open position and/or FHLBNY reorganization;
  • Expand identification of “High Potential” employees from the FHLBNY’s diverse pool of talent, to help ensure that they are developed for future leadership positions at the FHLBNY;
  • Foster a work environment where everyone feels respected, included and valued;
  • Expand minority, women, and disabled-owned businesses (MWDOB) supplier outreach and education of the FHLBNY’s business needs and activities; and
  • Keep diversity and inclusion in the forefront of the senior management team by providing dashboards, metrics and analytics on diversity and inclusion, MWDOB outreach efforts, and spend.
