Mark S. Bonham

The financial industry has been a leader in the business community today for adopting employee diversity policies that target discrimination in employment and the workplace. Nowhere has this been more evident than in the banks. As an industry whose success depends on individual competency, achievement and relationship building, this is perhaps not a surprising development.

A good part of the reason for the outright acceptance of LGBTQ individuals is simply because of the large presence of LGBTQ individuals in the banking sector of the financial industry. Many of these individuals have advanced into the ranks of senior management. They have then gone on to found the company’s LGBTQ employee groups, or become executive sponsors to diversity initiatives within their companies.

There have been notable and prominent LGBTQ individuals in the banking history throughout history also, and these individuals have made remarkably important contributions to global economic progress. Among these are include American Alexander Hamilton, the creator of the U.S. financial industry and the country's first Secretary of the Treasury, and Great Britain's John Maynard Keynes, the most prominent economist in history.

We have identified a large number of LGBTQ bankers from around the world. They hail from France, Canada, Great Britain, Malta, Colombia, the United States, Switzerland, and Denmark. Read on for their fascinating biographies:
