Less than a fifth of executives are women
LESS than a fifth of senior executives at financial firms are women, according to a report published today.
A study of 280 banks, building societies and other financial service companies shows that only 18.5 per cent of chief executives, chief finance officers and board directors are female.
At Britain’s five biggest banks, the figure is only slightly higher, at 28 per cent.
