67% of Black students view the financial services industry as appealing but nearly 90% of Black students believe there are distinct challenges that affect Black financial professionals.1
Many students state they are interested in financial services careers because of the opportunity to help others (including people in their own communities) build wealth, the independent and entrepreneurial working environment, and potential for high pay. FARE members are fully committed to helping HBCU students and diverse professionals achieve this reality.
