Undiversified: The Big Gender Short in Investment Management
Diversification is a core principle of investing. Yet money managers have not applied it to their own ranks. Only around 10 percent of portfolio managers, the people most directly responsible for investing your money, are female, and the numbers are even worse at the ownership level. What are the causes of this underrepresentation, and what are its consequences, including for firm's and client's bottom lines?
Drawing on wide-ranging research, interviews with prospective, current, and former industry practitioners, and the authors’ own experiences, Undiversified makes a compelling case that increasing the number of women could help transform active investment management at a time when it is under threat from passive strategies and technological innovation.
Join us for a virtual conversation with Ellen and Katrina and Q&A moderated by CAIA San Francisco Chapter Head Isela Rosales. For those interested in reading the book prior to our event, you can order it here.
