Asian American woman sues PayPal for racial bias in investment program
Briefly

Nisha Desai, a businesswoman, alleges that restrictions in PayPal's $535 million investment program to only Black and Hispanic applicants constitute racial bias, denying her fair opportunity.
Despite the program’s goal to support minority-owned businesses, Desai’s complaint argues that Asian Americans are unjustly excluded, highlighting a paradox in diversity initiatives that discriminate in their own way.
Desai asserts that her experience reflects a growing issue where certain minority groups, specifically Asian Americans, are overlooked and face systemic bias in corporate America’s diversity efforts.
PayPal's lack of comment on the litigation reflects a broader reluctance within some corporations to engage with criticism regarding their diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.
