UK investment industry faces growing gender gap, especially among women over 50.

This underrepresentation is linked to increased care responsibilities and menopause. While the gender pay gap has narrowed, women are still underrepresented in top-paying roles. The industry is urged to understand why women, especially in their late 30s to late 40s, are leaving to improve gender balance at higher levels.
