The HM Treasury Women in Finance Charter

New Financial is proud to be HM Treasury’s data partner for the Women in Finance Charter.  The research is an enormous undertaking, and would not be possible without our sponsors Aviva, Santander UK, London Stock Exchange Group, City of London Corporation and the wider support of New Financial members.

The Charter is a commitment by HM Treasury and signatory firms to work together to build a more balanced and fair industry. Firms that sign up to this Charter are pledging to be the best businesses in the sector.

 

The Charter reflects the government’s aspiration to see gender balance at all levels across financial services firms.  A balanced workforce is good for business – it is good for customers, for profitability and workplace culture, and is increasingly attractive for investors.
