The gender pay gap has lifelong implications for women. In the UK, women on average have saved less than half of what their male counterparts have, when you exclude property. It's a disparity that Baroness Helena Morrissey just can't abide. That's why she's spent much of her career working toward solutions. She's the founder of the 30% Club, a global campaign that's pushing for greater gender balance in boardrooms and across senior management ranks. She's also the mother of nine children. And she recently visited the Finimize Podcast studio to speak with our own Michelle Sims. They talked about the latest gender pay gap figures, as well as the many other obstacles women encounter in their careers. Plus, they explored those key moments in life when women's finances are most likely to go off the rails – and the things women can do to help keep them firmly on track.Listen in the Finimize app, on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.Partner with us: https://business.finimize.com/Subscribe To Finimize Newsletter: https://finimize.com/

So how do you take on the might of the big brands (her products are not make up, but nutraceuticals, an important differentiator. Her 'hire in a heartbeat'? Well she chose two (wise woman!).

Is it a career ladder or a career labyrinth?  Helena Morrissey, 'former CEO of Newton Investments and LGIM and the founder of The 30% Club' suggests it's the latter.  As an 'Anti-Lean In', 'Brexit Supporting, 'Gender Equality Pushing' CEO with nine children, who has made fear her friend; I had to find out more...

Dame Helena Morrissey has a mission to level the playing field. With the 30% Club, she is helping to bring more women into boardrooms and as the 'unofficial queen of the City', who better for the job? Helena has been named one of Fortune magazine’s World’s 50 Greatest Leaders and the Financial Times’ 2017 ‘Person of the Year’. Her first book ‘A Good Time to be a Girl, Don’t Lean In, Change the System' was described by Forbes as 'one of the five most empowering books for women' in 2018. Just don't call her superwoman!

Dame Helena Morrissey is a former City fund manager and chief executive of a major investment company, who has also campaigned to boost the number of women in the boardroom. Newspapers regularly describe her as 'Superwoman', because alongside her many professional achievements, she's the mother of nine children. Helena Morrissey is the daughter of two teachers, and her drive was evident from an early age. She was - by her own admission - a 'manic Brownie', striving to gain the maximum number of badges, and she also played the piano to a high standard. She won a place at Cambridge University from her comprehensive school in Chichester, and on graduating, joined an asset management company in their New York office. On her return to London, she felt that she was denied promotion because she had a young baby. She moved to Newton Investment Management, and at the age of 35 she was appointed the CEO - a role she was not expecting to take. Under her leadership, the company's assets grew from £20 billion to £50 billion. In 2010 she established the 30% Club, campaigning for better female representation on the boards of British companies, and in 2017 she received a DBE for services to diversity in the financial sector. She lives in London with her husband Richard, who gave up full time work to look after their many children.

We hear a lot about the gender pay gap, but what about the gender pension gap? My guest on the show today is Dame Helena Morrissey, Head of Personal Investing at Legal & General Investment Management. Helena joined LGIM in 2017 from Newton where she held the title of CEO for fifteen years, before becoming non-executive Chairman. During her tenure, Newton’s assets under management grew from £20 billion to £50 billion, and under her leadership the firm developed a number of market-leading strategies in absolute return, equity income and global equities. Prior to becoming CEO she was a Head of Fixed Income at Newton. She started her career as a global fixed income analyst at Schroders in New York. Helena founded the 30% Club in 2010; a cross-business initiative aimed at achieving better gender balanced boards through voluntary, business-led change. She is also Chair of the Diversity Project. As you'll hear in this episode, the proportion of women on UK company boards more than doubled over the following five years and there are now fourteen 30% Clubs throughout the world. Helena was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 2012 New Year’s Honours List and promoted Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in the 2017 Birthday Honours for services to diversity in financial services. Here's my conversation with Helena Morrissey, in episode 458 of Informed Choice Radio.

We’ve unintentionally created a series in the past few months on the podcast. From the episode with Richard Romer-Lee which touched on the importance of communication with customers to the one with Helena Morrissey about how technology can help advisers reach more of the ‘uninvested’, these form a theme about how we as an industry are communicating with clients. This week we’re continuing that conversation by inviting Andy O’Shea, Investment Director and Head of Fund Solutions at Pharon IFA, to talk to us about the ways he’s managing client conversations about risk and return expectations, how diversification is important but can easily confuse customers, the burgeoning role of thematics and alternatives, and how we need to look beyond headline costs to an investment’s fundamental value. Also joining the podcast is Senior Investment Sales Manager, Matt Kemp, to provide his experience of the retail market and briefly discuss his West Ham fanzine, Over Land and Sea.

The responsibility for people’s financial futures has increasingly been transferred to the individual yet a broad majority of the population remain wary of investing. Asset managers, advisers and pension schemes need to emotionally engage people to make investing not only relevant but also appealing. Technology is by no means the panacea to this challenge but it can be a crucial component of that engagement.     The personal finance landscape has gone through a technological upheaval and yet still seems like it has a long way to go. From thoughtfully designed propositions to tailored user experiences, this episode explores some of the lessons learned from Legal & General’s efforts to ‘engage the nation’ in investing, the ways they’ve invested and developed their technology and what’s the future for the direct-to-consumer industry.     To find out more about the Personal Investing side of Legal & General visit https://www.legalandgeneral.com/investments/ (https://protect-eu.mimecast.com/s/Y_hMCvozMTpM92fQQA_i?domain=legalandgeneral.com)     Helena Morrissey, Head of Personal Investing, L&G Steve Davis, Head of Propositions, LGIM Strategy Catherine ‘CJ’ Fildes, Senior Communications Manager, L&G     We want to hear from you!

We need more women to work, to be paid the same as men, and to hold powerful positions. This is not just a matter of fairness but of plain economics. The OECD estimates that halving the gender gap in the work force by 2030 would boost GDP by about 6%. Dame Helena Morrissey is the founder of the UK-based 30% Club. Its goal? To reach a minimum of 3 out of 10 women on boards and in senior management. And this is just the thin edge of the diversity wedge. Ms Morrissey believes the power base should also be more inclusive of different ethnicities and sexual identities. Helena Morrissey is the current head of personal investing at Legal & General.

Kim Kardashian is making all kinds of headlines this week; not because her new baby boy, Chicago, arrived via surrogacy - but because she's sharing dozens of pics of herself in the nuddy with what she has called ‘Bo Derek' braids aka: cornrows or Fulani braids. We discuss the knotty issue of cultural appropriation, how it exists within fashion and beauty and speak to Sharmadean Reid, the founder of WAH Nails and Beauty Stack, on why she isn't offended by Kim's appropriation of a black hairstyle - but how offence is not a blanket thing. How can and should we navigate the nuances?Also today, we discuss Trump's assertion that he isn't a feminist (snore), why the world's gone mad for Tupperware (and why no-one has written about this?) and the brilliant Radio 4 show that had us both wincing: are women sexist towards other women? Before you shake your head - take a listen (link in the show notes.)
