Anthemis places diversity, equity and inclusion at the heart of everything we do. As we lean more fully into our own efforts, we are inspired to share what we have learned. In the first white paper, within Anthemis’ series on diversity, equity and inclusion in financial services, we unpack the challenges as we see them and offer practical solutions on collective ways to empower female founders and move from a vicious cycle to a virtuous cycle.

Within the white paper, we reveal:

• Progress made by women in financial services in recent years, while also emphasizing that these gains do not diminish persistent gaps in pay and equity—particularly at the highest levels of leadership.
• Stories from within the ecosystem that illustrate the personal and professional impact of gender discrimination.
• A roadmap for change, which takes into account all parts of the investment cycle.
