INROADS, Inc. has joined Houlihan Lokey, Inc. to address diversity and career opportunities in the financial services industry. INROADS' services are needed more than ever in the financial services industry. Research shows that only 4% of employees in financial services identify as diverse. In response to these challenges, Houlihan Lokey is partnering with INROADS as a collaboration sponsor of its Financial Services Institute (IFSI). Financial Services Institute is a diverse talent pipeline program launched in 2019 by JPMorgan Chase, through its Advancing Black Pathway initiative, to promote successful careers in the financial services industry for diverse talent. Through this exciting partnership, INROADS and Houlihan Lokey will lead the way in providing promising young people from diverse backgrounds with an enhanced pathway to identify, prepare for and pursue fulfilling careers in the financial services industry. Houlihan Lokey and INROADS are proud to be taking these important steps to identify, nurture, develop and onboard diverse talent to careers at Houlihan Lokey and in the broader financial services industry. INROADS' Financial Services Institute has already garnered important results in this area, and the partnership with Houlihan Lokey will extend and broaden this impact.
