"We are honored that Ann was recognized by P&I for her leadership in institutional investing," said Kate Burke, Allspring's president. "Ann is an advocate and champion for diversity in the industry, and alongside her esteemed peers, she has helped blaze a trail for many women in asset management.

This is the second year P&I has published this list of distinguished women in institutional investing and honorees are recognized for their work beyond their professional role as they drive positive change for others in the industry.

Intentionally fostering a diverse and inclusive culture allows us to empower innovation, productivity, and engagement. We also believe this to be essential for generating superior business results and elevating our communities.
