Hello,
This week we briefly stray away from tax to summarise the government’s five-year review of the Women in Finance Charter as it’s such an important topic. Although more women are being employed at the executive and board level than in 2016, with an average 50% increase, the review estimates that it is still going to take until 2033 for financial services to achieve gender parity. On the government’s timetable, we will all be driving electric cars before there is a gender balance in financial institutions.
