Q1. What or who inspired you to work in investing?

Q2. What do you think the future looks like for women in investing? What would you like to see?

When most sectors are embracing inclusion and diversity and creating new ways to welcome and embrace talent, it is shocking that we have dropped from 14% female fund managers in 2000 to 11% in 2020. As an industry, we need to reflect and understand what we can do to make it more appealing to women to join and remain in the industry.

It's all about the balance between risk and reward. I am wary of the ‘reward’ if it comes at the detriment of people and our planet.
