Garnet discussion on roles of women in senior roles in financial institutions
European Union funded Garnet Network of Excellent on Global Governance, Regionalization and Regulation research study advocates for increasing the number of women in senior roles in financial institutions. Finance impacts on gender in three main ways: i) impact of corporate governance modes on resource allocation among stakeholders and shareholders; ii) financial governance shapes how risks are "downloaded" and individualized; and iii) financial markets have led to a fiscal squeeze that increases the pressure to downsize public expenditure.
