Fearless Girl
Fearless Girl is a bronze sculpture by Kristen Visbal of a 4-foot-high (1.2 m) girl standing in a self-confident pose. It is located in New York City on Broad Street across from the New York Stock Exchange Building in the Financial District of Manhattan. Fearless Girl was commissioned by State Street Investment Management, formerly State Street Global Advisors (SSGA), a large asset management company, to promote gender diversity initiatives and an index fund focused on gender-diverse companies with a relatively high percentage of women in senior leadership. As of 2025, State Street quietly backed away from its commitment to diversity, and the statue's future remains uncertain. The statue was first installed at the northern tip of Bowling Green on Broadway, facing the sculpture Charging Bull on March 7, 2017, in anticipation of International Women's Day on the following day. Following complaints from Charging Bull sculptor Arturo Di Modica, Fearless Girl was removed in November 2018 and relocated to its Broad Street location the following month. A plaque with footprints was placed on the original site of Fearless Girl.
