Philadelphia, PA (Dec. 12, 2022) – Xponance, Inc., a multi-strategy investment firm, has been named one of the 2022 Best Places to Work in Money Management for firms with 20 to 49 employees, announced today by Pensions & Investments. The publication’s 11th annual survey is dedicated to identifying and recognizing the best employers in the money management industry. This is the third consecutive year the company has been honored on this list.

Xponance is a diverse, woman-led and 100% employee-owned investment firm with over $12 billion in assets under management. With its core belief that diversity provides an important and differentiated path for generating alpha, Xponance has served as a force multiplier for greater diversity in the investment industry for over 25 years.

“As their employees attest, the companies named to this year’s Best Places to Work list demonstrate a commitment to building and maintaining a strong workplace culture,’’ said P&I Executive Editor Julie Tatge. “Even as firms grappled with volatile markets and stresses from the pandemic, their employees said they felt strong support from their managers, enabling them to do their best work.’’

“In this especially challenging year for markets, we’re thankful for our talented team that has continued to exceed client expectations and remain committed to finding unique investment solutions. We are proud to cultivate an environment where employees can thrive and stay highly engaged as owners of the business,” added Tina Byles Williams, Founder, CEO & CIO of Xponance.

Pensions & Investments partnered with Best Companies Group, a research firm specializing in identifying great places to work, to conduct a two-part survey process of employers and their employees.

The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company’s workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems, and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies.

“Pensions & Investments is proud to honor the Best Places to Work in Money Management for the 11th year. A strong workplace culture that supports talent, advocates progress and drives innovation is paramount to driving the best outcomes and these asset managers demonstrate that. Congratulations to the 2022 honorees for fostering healthy and inclusive workplaces in the face of a rapidly evolving and challenging market,” said P&I Chief Operating Officer, Nikki Pirrello.
