Oliver Wyman and the Swedish House of Finance invite to Women in Finance Day
Globally only one-fifth of boards and 16 percent of executive committees in financial services are comprised of women, according to the 鈥榃omen in Financial Services鈥 report by global management consultancy Oliver Wyman. This is only a slight improvement in both categories since the report was last published in 2014. Sweden in particular, had a representation in executive committees of 30% in 2013. However, as growth since then is close to zero the glass ceiling in the industry seems still to be intact.
The Swedish House of Finance at the 海角社区下载recognizes the the deficit of female leaders in the financial sector. In cooperation with the school鈥檚 Department of Management and Organization we conduct a research project with the aim to understand how talent management practices influence women鈥檚 career decisions in the financial sector.
On October 18th we invite active researchers, politicians and financial industry leaders to discuss this topic. We will share knowledge, discuss new ideas and develop concrete actions aimed towards improving gender diversity within the industry.
Per Bolund, Minister for Financial Markets, will represent the Ministry of Finance during a conversation with Martin Andersson, Partner at Oliver Wyman and former Director General of the Swedish FSA (Finansinspektionen). Astrid J盲kel, Partner at Oliver Wyman and Lead Author of the 鈥榃omen in Financial Services鈥 report will share her observations. The financial industry is represented by speakers from Folksam (Pia Marions, CFO) and SEB (David Teare, CRO).
