Uncovering the barriers to progression and acting on them

Socio-economic background remains one of the strongest predictors of progression in financial services.

Employees from lower socio-economic backgrounds take nearly two years longer to move from middle management into senior leadership, despite no difference in performance.

The result is clear: talent is being held back, and potential is being lost.

      This is a subheading

      We are asking employees and firms across the industry to contribute their experience. Without visibility, there is no progress. By bringing lived experience and real examples to the surface, we can:
      • Identify root causes behind the data
      • Focus action where it matters most
      • Build organisations where talent is recognised and developed
