Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) have been fundamental to One Rock’s identity since our inception, recognizing the value of a diverse workforce in fostering a culture of inclusion and driving success. In 2021, One Rock formalized our commitment by adopting a DEI Policy. This policy places accountability on our Managing Partners for creating an inclusive business environment aligned with its intent, while the ESG Committee oversees DEI initiatives. Every employee is expected to contribute to our DEI agenda by treating others respectfully.
In 2023, under the leadership of One Rock’s People’s Committee, we codified a set of firm values which we believe represent our culture today and which we intend to cultivate as we grow our team.

We actively engage with organizations that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the investment industry, including ILPA's Diversity in Action initiative and Level20. We also sponsor and hold board positions at the Association of Asian American Investment Managers (AAAIM) and the National Association of Investment Companies (NAIC).
