Women In Finance Charter

Background and Context

2022

The IBCB is proud to support Ireland’s Women in Finance Charter. The Charter underpins the financial services industry’s ambition to see increased participation of women at all levels, including junior, middle, and senior management, leadership and board roles within financial services organisations based in Ireland.  We know that more diverse and inclusive workforces lead to diversity of thought and better decision-making in organisations.  The IBCB’s 2021 Éist survey of bank culture highlights perspectives from bank staff on equal opportunities in the industry. Women make up a higher proportion of junior grades and a lower proportion of senior grades. This is reflective of the global financial services sector but fostering and developing the careers of women in the banking industry will help recruit and retain talented staff and will contribute to a more inclusive and diverse industry, benefiting organisations and wider business community and society as a whole.
