Leaders for Women Survey 2020

Asiamoney’s Leaders for Women survey recognises the banks that have done the most to encourage women in the workplace across Asia’s financial markets

AMV2.gif

Asiamoney asked banks across the region to self-report the percentage of women employees they have across their bank; the percentage of women they have at two levels of seniority – managing director and above, or the equivalent level, and vice president or equivalent – and the percentage of women they hired in their most recent graduate intake.

The numbers for each bank represent their percentage of women employees, managing directors, vice presidents and recent graduate hires they have across Asia. This includes the specific country results, which have used the pan-Asian representation of women at banks that are headquartered in each country, rather than limiting the data only to employees within that country.

Asiamoney got data from nearly 60 banks. We used the most recent figures given by the banks, with the oldest data coming from the end of 2019. The numbers were rounded up or down to the nearest percentage point, with half percents rounded up.

The data in China was supplemented by information from banks’ public reports.
