Our Vision

We believe in a more inclusive and representative society and economy, where the diversity of our suppliers reflects the diversity of our communities.

Our Mission

We strive to be the leading regional bank in reducing barriers to success and contributing to the growth of diverse businesses, starting by proactively seeking to increase our spend with a greater number of these businesses and gaining their trust as a customer and partner.

Our Key Objectives

  • Connect diverse suppliers in M&T’s communities with internal stakeholders who may benefit from their services
  • Provide data and clarity to internal stakeholders on how the diversity of their supplier pool is contributing to M&T’s overall supplier diversity
  • Seek out diverse suppliers to participate in RFPs run by the Strategic Sourcing team

We are actively seeking to increase the number of firms we work with and the proportion of dollars we spend within the following supplier categories:

Small Business Enterprises, or SBEs

Minority-owned Business Enterprises, or MBEs

Women-owned Business Enterprises, or WBEs

LGBTQ+-owned Business Enterprises, or LGBTBEs

Disability-Owned Business Enterprises, or DOBEs

Veteran-owned Business Enterprises, or VBEs

Businesses located in Historically Underutilized Business Zones, or HUBZones

If your business fits into these categories and can support a large company like M&T Bank, we want to explore a partnership.ÌýRegister to join our Supplier Diversity Program >
