Women aren’t easily associated with the job of banking, and statistics show that there are indeed few female bankers around: in 2007, only 16,1% of the executives at the 100 largest commercial banks were women, which is even less than in 2006. The percentage of female corporate officers in finance is 2.9% and only 2% of the directors are women. Needless to say, the balance between women and men in the world of banking is nonexistent.
A solution could be to appoint more women to be board directors, because they are more likely to promote or hire women, or at least to promote people regardless of their gender.
