Abstract

Purpose

To analyze the June 9, 2017 Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) interpretive letter permitting the use of Related Performance Information in continuously offered closed-end registered investment company sales materials distributed solely to institutional investors.

Design/methodology/approach

Provides background, including the application of FINRA Rule 2210, and explains the conditions under which fund marketing materials may contain Related Performance Information.

Findings

While the interpretive letter will not result in a fundamental shift in the Industry’s approach to providing Related Performance Information of open- and closed-end funds to institutional investors, it also represents FINRA’s ongoing recognition that communications provided solely to institutional investors do not raise the same investor protection concerns as communications provided to retail investors.

Originality/value

Expert guidance from experienced investment management and investment fund lawyers.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to explore how intersecting identities shape experiences of workplace discrimination faced by Muslim employees in Catalonia, Spain. We seek to understand the interplay of religion, ethnicity, gender and age in their employment experiences in order to improve managerial practices.

Design/methodology/approach

The research employs a qualitative approach, conducting in-depth interviews with 39 diverse Muslim employees in Catalonia through convenience and snowball sampling to support an intersectional analysis.

Findings

Findings reveal that Muslim employees navigate a workplace environment where their experiences of discrimination are shaped by intersecting identities including religion, age, gender and ethnicity which become salient at various stages of their careers, prompted by HRM practices such as recruitment, selection and promotion. Their experiences as recipients of these practices illuminate the complex ways in which intersecting identities shape the experiences of discrimination. The study reveals the hiding of their religious identity, giving up on traditional career paths, seeking social support from other Muslims and emphasizing privileged identities, to deal with discrimination.

Originality/value

This study deepens understanding of the complexity of religious identity in minorities and explores its role in workplace discrimination. In particular, the research sheds light on the psychological impact in the form of feelings of guilt and shame which arise from coping strategies such as concealing religious markers which are adopted by these employees in response to organizational and managerial practices. Lastly, the paper stresses the need for intersectional approaches in order to improve effectiveness of HR policies and managerial practices.
