Community initiatives
Our ambition is to drive positive change not just in the way people trade foreign exchange but also in the world around us.
At LMAX Group our goal is to:
Build a world class culture that inspires people to create a positive impact both at work and beyond. That’s why we are wholeheartedly committed to Diversity, Inclusion and Environmental action.
Through our partnerships with charities such as Kensington & Chelsea Foundation we are able to make a difference in the local communities in which we operate, creating a positive impression for people at all stages of life and from all backgrounds.
On a global scale, we have forged a recent partnership with The Philippine Reef & Rainforest Conservation Foundation, Inc. to inspire people to take action for biodiversity conservation and sustainable development. For more information, please visit our Corporate sustainability page.
