John Golden has recently been named the new Executive Director of the American Mortgage Diversity Council, who will lead the organization in its continued efforts to bring diversity initiatives to the mortgage industry.

The tool will provide training to further understanding of topics including hiring practices, supply-chain diversity, compliance, and regulation that directly affects diversity and inclusion.

The American Mortgage Diversity Council (AMDC) has announced the appointment of a new nine-member Executive Council that includes representatives from government and the private sector who work in the mortgage industry.

The American Mortgage Diversity Council, an independent organization comprised of industry leaders and advocates focused on shaping the diversity agenda for the mortgage industry, has launched its Diversity & Inclusion Directory.

To further the mission of creating and sustaining dialogue that addresses key issues affecting diversity and inclusion in the mortgage industry, the AMDC announced that it has appointed a new Senior Policy and Program Advisor.

Three federal regulators issued guidelines for the financial institutions they regulate on submitting self-assessments of their diversity policies and practices.

There is a demographic shift happening within the mortgage profession. In an industry that is so male and white-focused, women and minorities are often passed over for well-deserved positions and promotions, but this idea is being reshaped and redefined right before our eyes. This select print feature appears in the October 2015 edition of MReport magazine, available now.

The AMDC's goal is to drive results that support the application and promotion of the mortgage industry's best diversity practices, and advancing solutions that support initiatives outlined by Section 342 of the Dodd-Frank Act–which focuses on minority and inclusion rules that call for greater supply chain diversity and greater diversity in hiring and promoting in the workforce.
