Bosses at one of the world's biggest investment firms will need to get special approval to hire white men as part of a new diversity drive. State Street Global Advisors aims to triple the number of black, Asian and other minority staff in senior roles by 2023 as part of a drive to improve diversity within its middle and senior management. Failure to meet the target will result in a drop in executives' bonuses, reports The Times. State Street, which has 30 offices worldwide,(Snip) Jess McNicholas, the bank’s head of inclusion, diversity and corporate citizenship in London, said: 'This is now front and central for State Street

Hiring and promotions by melanin content. What could go wrong. Why, using this logic, any firm will just be able to say, no blacks allowed without special approval. Right? Explain to me how, in 2021, racial quotas are still a thing?

Dear State Street, you do know "Pursuit of Happyness" is just a movie, right? And actually proves an exception to the general feral subculture. You do know that, right?

Have you ever heard of Green Lining? Look it up. The plan is to have people of color living better white people Check it out. You will never believe who supports this. Start with the Clintons. So don’t hire white people. But hire all the Haitians coming illegally across the border. They are not vaccinated either. Don’t have to get the jab!

In 1969 I was one of the last whites hired by a well known oil company when this was tried. This was of course on a field grade level not corporate. The idea was to promote people into jobs filtering into management. I had to train people to take jobs I was qualified for many times leaving me at a lower pay as an instructor and baby sitter. What happened incentives to retire early were offered it was meant for the older personal with as much as tens years more than I had. Some of the seniors took the pay as did I after 22 years of service. The company tried to tell me I was valuable and should stay, I didn't. What happened was the POC took the packages and left also leaving a void at that level. Some who were advanced to corporate all bombed never to be heard of again. The company's attempt at diversity was a huge failure losing 20 plus years on a dumb experiment. At the end the company told me it was if the company ever had a massive oil spill like Exxon encountered they could show the federal government how diverse it was in promoting POC. In the end it didn't work out at all with sub-par employees riding on the shoulders of others earning good pay. In years that followed I made sure I didn't fall into the diversity trap again having zero tolerance for people advancing because of skin color. This investment firm is laying the ground work for failure not harvesting any talent with the exception of some by this endeavor. I wish them all the woes that come with diversity unless they are hiring all Asian overachievers then they will be successful.

Read the book, "Woke, Inc." by Vivek Ramaswamy and you will understand what is really going on. The financial elites are engaging in empty virtue signaling like the Fearless Girl statue to divert attention from their globalist oligarchic control of financial markets for the benefit of their clients. They have no intention of changing anything that might really impact their profits but need to gaslight the gullible public, press, and government regulators into thinking they have gotten all woke and such. The Daily Mail is one of their most loyal shills.

So how many retirees are going to lose their funds before these idiots get fired themselves? Used to be an investment firm wanted competent money managers, and they didn't care what the appearance was. This has disaster written all over it. Quota hiring needs to go the way of the buggy whips. Hiring should always be based on competence, not skin color.

Actually, #29, the comeuppance might be pretty quick for these fools. In the investing world, your quarterly earnings are ranked among similar groups of mutual funds, or investment groups. My investments are spread over about 35 or 40 different mutual funds, representing hundreds of stocks. BUT, each individual mutual fund is one of the top quartile in that category, meaning that the folks selecting which stocks to buy and sell are doing better than average (in that market sector) year in and year out. And we rebalance the portfolio several times a year. And GENERALLY, a top quartile fund will remain so for extended periods, which how you choose your mutual funds. Mutual funds are run by an investment advisor team, and occasionally a fund suddenly drops to a middle or bottom quartile after a decade or two in the top.....and we move our funds in that market sector (say "energy") into a different mutual fund which is still outperforming the average fund in that sector. This sudden drop in effectiveness in a mutual fund is often caused by a key advisor or two, the "really smart guys", retiring or moving to another mutual fund, leaving the less skilled folks failing to exceed the average performance in that sector, and my money moving away from them, along with many other folks who have well managed portfolios. As soon as these State Street Advisor guys stop performing at the top (assuming that they are now).....money will RAPIDLY be leaving their hands. Investors seek the best returns, and generally don't care if a purple and green person provides that return. Poor returns......people don't give you their money to invest. And the performance is measured every three months, and is there in (hah) Black and White for all to see on the page.

Back about three decades ago, at my state university, our graduate program needed to hire a replacement for our labor law professor, who retired. And when our graduate department sought permission from the black woman Provost at our university to hire a replacement for the retiree, she told us this. If you advance the application of a white man, I will deny you a replacement slot., and no one will be hired. If you advance the application of a white woman, I will grant you a one year temporary non tenure track slot and permission to hire her. If you advance the application of a black man or black woman, I will grant you a permanent tenure track slot. We hired a woman, and when the Provost was pushed out for incompetence, we converted our temporary professor to tenure track.

They are bound to hire less competent personnel to handle your money when the top qualification is skin color. No doubt some investors will not take the chance in loosing big money and will hire new advisory firms.

Elaine Marie Thomas, 67, of Auburn, Washington, was the director of metallurgy at a foundry in Tacoma that supplied steel castings used by Navy contractors Electric Boat and Newport News Shipbuilding to make submarine hulls.
