Culture

Assured Guaranty seeks to foster and maintain strong ethical standards and a reputation as a business that conducts itself professionally and with a high degree of integrity. In addition, the Company works to provide and support a respectful and inclusive environment that values the abilities of each employee, leading to enhanced engagement, maximizing individual performance, and improving retention.

Our employees play an important role in shaping the culture at Assured Guaranty. Employees can volunteer to serve on the Company’s two employee-led committees: the Belonging and Culture Committee and the Corporate Philanthropy Committee, or join any of our five Employee Resource Groups (ERGs):

• African Heritage
• Asian and Pacific Islander 
• Women
• Working parents
• Young professionals 

The ERGs were selected based on employee feedback and all employees are welcome to join any ERG. Membership in the ERGs is voluntary and open to all employees, regardless of whether they identify with the group’s focus, and all of our ERGs include members who do not share those characteristics. The ERGs prepare strategic plans that incorporate the Company’s business objectives into their programming. The ERGs prepare and present (to senior leadership) strategic plans that incorporate the Company's business objectives into their programming and sponsor several events throughout the year that assist the Company in its efforts to foster a more inclusive culture.

Corporate Philanthropy

Giving is an integral part of our corporate culture. We contribute generously to a broad range of causes through direct donations, matching gifts, and corporate sponsorships.
