Financial Services Top 20: Progress, but Women Still Short-Changed

In 2018 there are 191 men and 41 women in the top teams of the 20 leading financial sector companies.Globally this shows a welcome increase in percentage of female executives, from 13% to 18%. But there are big regional differences. In Asia 6% senior executives are female, in Europe 20%. But US companies excel with 33% women executives.In absolute numbers The Bank of America leads, with 5 women executives in a team of 14. Congratulations also to J.P.Morgan Chase, Fannie Mae and the Exor Group, each with 4 women. In percentages the Exor Group is outstanding, with 44% of its top team female (4 out of 9), while Legal & General is exceptional in having all three of its female executives in line roles, responsible for major business areas.Over half the companies listed now have at least 2 women executives, and 30% have 3 or more. Amongst US and European companies, only Axa and Prudential have just one woman on their top teams, though both in line roles.

Key Findings

The data for this survey is based on information provided by companies listed in the 2017 Fortune Global 500. Data is taken from websites and annual reports, as of February 2018. The Executive Committee is defined as the CEO and executives who report directly to the CEO, or as defined by each company. Some companies list a broader group of ‘Top Leadership’. Where this is the case clarification has been requested from companies, and if no reply is received we use our best judgement to identify reportees to the CEO, based on job title and role.

Survey Methodology

Asleep. No women on the EC, in either staff or line roles. Some companies may have a weak succession pool with little prospect of bringing women on to the EC within 3-5 years.

Starting. One woman on the EC. A bonus point if she’s in a line or significant P&L role. Staff roles (HR, Legal,Communications) are important, but rarely lead to the very top.

Progressing. Two voices are stronger than one. With two female voices on the EC, particularly in line roles, it’s less easy, consciously or not, to see them as ‘the token woman’.

Critical Mass. With three or more women on the EC, their contribution becomes a norm. High EC numbers may promise a strong talent pool coming up.
