The Landscape for Women in Finance in 2025

As a part of our Women in Alternatives initiatives, our Director of Funds and Corporate Nicola Le Brocq recently led a discussion with the rest of our female Market Development leads for our ‘Jersey Heard’ podcast. In this episode, they explored the role of women in finance.

Nicola was joined by:

An Kelles, Director – GCC
Maria McDermott, Market Development Consultant – Asia

During the podcast, they discussed the landscape for women working in financial services within the regions they oversee. They drew on their personal experiences, reflected on the industry, and looked ahead to the future.

Key points that were covered included:

1. Women entering male-dominated areas of the finance industry
2. How women can progress in these roles
