Hundreds of financial services firms have signed up to the Charter including Abrdn, Blackrock, Brewin Dolphin, Brooks Macdonald, Ellis Davies Financial Planning, Jane Smith Financial Planning and Magenta Financial Planning

Earlier this year a report for the Charter suggested that women were continuing to gain more senior roles in financial services, with female executives now holding 35% of senior roles. The figure was an increase on the 33% recorded in 2021 and 2022.

Half of the financial services firms signed up to the Charter have set a target of at least 40% of senior roles held by women.

The Women in Finance Charter was launched by the Treasury in 2016 to increase the representation of women in financial services. It has published an annual review to monitor signatory progress in collaboration with think tank New Financial.
