Getting a seat at the board table as a female actuary – leading NEDs share their stories
An inclusive boardroom culture, accommodating a diversity of views and perspectives, is increasingly recognised by regulators and shareholders as a vital ingredient in effective risk management. Gender is one aspect of diversity. As reported by Women On Boards UK, “In 2011, the Davies Review found that women made up only 9.5% of members on the boards of FTSE 350 companies. Subsequent UK monitoring of board diversity by the government-backed Hampton-Alexander Review in 2016 reported 23% of FTSE 350 board members were female. Today that figure is 40%... proof that business-led targets, with appropriate monitoring and scrutiny, can be effective in driving change.” We are delighted to invite you to join us for this webinar to hear from our inspiring panel of leading female actuary NEDs, sharing how their career progressed into NED roles, as well as their insights and experiences of the benefits of all forms of diversity in the boardroom.
