Power, Profit, and Pride: A panel of queer professionals navigating high finance
Out on Bay Street 2026
About This Session
High finance rewards performance, pedigree, and presence — but what happens when your identity doesn't fit the traditional mould? Senior professionals working in investment banking, private equity, and capital markets share how they've navigated performance-driven cultures, built client relationships on their own terms, and risen through the ranks without hiding who they are. This panel pulls no punches on the realities of queer life in finance's most demanding corners.
