Institute representatives Judith Condell and Cróna Clohisey attended the launch of the third Annual Report of the Women in Finance Charter. The Institute is proud to be one of 100 signatories to the Charter: an industry-led and Government supported initiative aimed at increasing women's participation at all levels of business in financial services in Ireland.
The Report was launched at an event in Dublin by An Taoiseach Micheál Martin with Minister of State Robert Troy and is an important milestone highlighting the significant progress that has been made since the Charter was established in 2022. For example, since the first organisations signed up:
- 43.4% of senior management roles in signatory firms are now held by women – up from 36.2%
- Female board representation has risen from 30.3% to 36.3%
- CEO-level representation has increased from 19.4% to 22.6%
The Institute believes in and is committed to gender diversity at all levels of our organisation, and is proud to be a signatory to the Charter. As Ireland strives for greater inclusion and competitiveness, this Charter is a powerful driver of change.
