Bonhill’s Women in Asset Management award winners

Recognizing 16 female role models in the investment industry

Sixteen women won Women in Asset Management awards in New York on Sept. 12, the first such awards sponsored in the U.S. by London-based Bonhill Group, the parent company of InvestmentNews.
Recognizing the imbalance of women at senior-level positions within the U.S. investment industry, the awards seek to shine a light on women who are paving the way for gender parity.
Research from the non-profit Catalyst found women hold only 16% of executive and senior-level positions in the investment sector.
