Our Commitment
to the Global Community and Society
First Federal founders formed our organization with full knowledge and respect for the fact that progress is a function of both the dedication and commitment of our people and the everyday actions that we all take as an honorable corporate citizen in our financial management community.
We are committed to building a truly equitable culture, and we have adopted a 5-point set of principles to accomplish that goal.
01
Every individual is entitled to be heard. Social justice and equity begin with impactful dialogue with persons from all backgrounds. We are committed to building empathy and a common understanding of how our actions impact local communities and global culture, and we strive to reflect inclusive economic growth through those actions.
02
In all personnel decisions, we are committed to an emphasis on equitable hiring, training, promotional practices, and policies, without regard to race, creed, gender, or orientation. We work toward a meaningful increase in diversity among our internal financial advisors and our third-party independent consultants.
03
We believe in equitable pay for all services and we conduct regular reviews and analyses of compensation in all of our offices. We take action as needed to remedy any inequalities.
04
We encourage equity training and personnel policies among all of our affiliates. We encourage all internal personal and third-party experts to foster cultural awareness and empathy. We remain alert to subtle forms of discrimination and implement policies for the correction of any violations of our commitment to equality.
05
We support local and community organizations that share our goals for a more equitable corporate society.
Our purpose is to effect a positive change in the lives of our clients, internal personnel, third-party affiliates, and the communities that we serve. In all that we do, we accept responsibility for our actions and inform our services with a commitment to these values.
