Luxembourg Women in Finance Charter launched
A total of 69 signatories representing the Luxembourg financial sector on Wednesday marked International Women’s Day 2023 by signing the newly launched Luxembourg Women in Finance Charter, seeking to improve gender diversity in the grand duchy’s financial centre.
The initiative, supported by the Luxembourg finance ministry, seeks to achieve greater gender balance and inclusivity across the Luxembourg financial services industry. Finance minister Yuriko Backes will act as the charter’s patron.
Women in Finance do a lot for gender equality
In the financial sector, less than 30 percent of all executive positions are held by women. In terms of gender equality, therefore, there is still room for improvement. Women in Finance, an initiative launched in 2018 by Febelfin, brings together ladies who want to change that, and with success.
