Truist Makes $1 Billion in Economic Impact Through Supplier Diversity

By: 3BL Media

SOURCE: Truist

DESCRIPTION:

Truist has released our inaugural Supplier Diversity Economic Impact Report, sharing how we drive innovation, help small businesses grow and support local economies. We've accomplished much of this by partnering with certified diverse-owned businesses when relying on services or products from third-party suppliers.

In 2020, our diverse supplier relationships helped create a total of $1 billion in economic impact.1 This impact includes $579 million in spend supporting nearly 10,000 jobs, resulting in more than $400 million in wages for small business employees.

"We're proud of our supplier diversity program, where through qualified and innovative diverse businesses, we provide value-added supplier partnerships that enhance our client experience, strengthen our operations, and enrich our communities through economic advancement," shared Brian Downer, chief procurement officer. As part of Truist's Community Benefits Plan, we committed to spend at least 10% with diverse suppliers by the end of 2022. As of May 2021, we've spent 17.4%, exceeding our goal.

For more information on how we're delivering on our purpose to inspire and build better lives and communities through diverse small business owners, read the 2020 Supplier Diversity Economic Impact Report, including testimonies from a few of our partners.

1. ​Economic impact modeling is used to quantify the economic contribution of an investment/company. This uses an “Input-Output” model to estimate the number of times each dollar of direct spend cycles through the economy in terms of “indirect and induced output,” or additional spend, personal income, and employment.
