This image is of that irritating glass ceiling. Some can see it, few have smashed through it, others pretend it's not there until a bird hits it. To help more women and business change their gender pay gap stories and smash glass ceilings, I've been speaking with @UniSA's Dr Jill Gould and Prof Carol Kulik to bring you some practical tips ahead of #equalpayday on August 28. #genderpaygap #womenandmoney #financialequality #financialliteracy #economicsecurity #womensupportingwomen #womensempowerment #womeninbusiness #womeninleadership #careers #pay #genderequality @financy

When great minds collide exciting things happen. Let me introduce RadiantESG, the US based female-led asset manager that is backed by HSBC. I spoke with these ladies this morning about their approach to stock picking on the basis of fundamentals but also if a company is helpful or harmful to women beyond just women on boards metrics. This is a progressive approach to help reduce financial inequalities as highlighted in the #womensindex. Good move, I look forward to seeing more like it - particularly in Australia - and working with asset managers on how the Women's Index is evolving. #womenledbusiness #womeninbusiness #investments #esg #esginvesting #womenandmoney @financy @radiantesg #financialliteracy #genderdiversity

I love Fridays that deliver new global research to add weight to the case for at least 30% gender diversity on company boards. According to consultancy Pipeline having more women on boards provides a significant 20% boost in profits versus a loss. What's also interesting to note is the impact that having more women in senior leadership makes on advancing pay among women. #genderdiversity #genderequality #womenatwork #womeninleadership #progressingwomen #womensempowerment #ceothoughts #newresearch #careers #companyprofits

Achieving economic equity for Australian women – y
Achieving economic equity for Australian women - young and old - is possible, so why not set a date to make it happen! Financy is inviting submissions to the Economic Equality Pact 2030 and we'd love to hear your solutions for problems such as unequal pay, workplace barriers to women‘s success and financial literacy and abuse. #womensfinance #women #entrepreneur #financialliteracy #genderpaygaps #womensempowerment

For many of us Financial independence starts with having your own wheels - whatever they look like. Whilst this beast is not fuel efficient or green, I recently posted on Financy.com.au a list of the cars - affordable and others - that have low fuel running costs. When they make one and deliver it to Australia that’s a truck let me know! Earlier this year, @finder.au analysed the cost of owning a car – including petrol, registration and insurance – and found some drivers could be spending up to 133% more per year. Those driving smaller cars and getting a good deal on insurance spend around $3,413 per year on average. Meanwhile those driving larger cars typically spend more on insurance, fuel and registration at $7,963 per year on average – a difference of 133%.

Submissions Open: the Economic Equality Pact 2030.
Submissions Open: the Economic Equality Pact 2030. We are drawing a line in the sand on achieving gender equality with the launch of the Economic Equality Pact 2030. We are in the consultation phase of this collaborative journey. To kick things off we have outlined six centrepiece measures, which are deliberately aligned to the Financy Women’s Index to ensure that we can measure outcomes on a quarterly basis. The impact of these six suggestions will be measured through the Women’s Index. They sit across: Employment, wealth, pay, education/earnings, leadership and unpaid work. We seek your ideas and feedback and partnership on this important #genderequality initiative. Click on the link for more details on the deadline and when we will launch the final Pact for signing. https://financy.com.au/economic-equality-pact-2030/ #genderequality #diversity #leadership #australia #genderequality @deloitteaus @ecstra.foundation @femeconomy @rarebirdshq @womensagenda @the100.project @qsuperfund

A jobs recovery is happening in Australia and grow
A jobs recovery is happening in Australia and growth has been strongest among women over 35 years but for younger women and those in the most common age group for entering parenthood are being left behind in the COVID-19 rebound. What’s happening for millennials? My thoughts are that early Jobkeeper and Jobseeker payments have had an impact and possibly deterred engagement in the workforce but we could also see more younger people studying or participating in the cash economy… lots to ponder And importantly consider In how do we shift this trend seen in the March quarter Women’s Index. @financy #womenandmoney #womensempowerment #genderequality #womenatwork #millennialwomen #employment #jobs #covidjobs #womensupportingwomen

So here’s my take on the state of gender financi
So here’s my take on the state of gender financial equality in Australia. #covid has setback women’s progress but we are still seeing signs of a strong recovery in women’s employment. If that continues and we see flexible work become more normalised I expect it will have a positive impact on women’s financial security. Some of the key findings of the report include: # The Financy Women’s Index rose 0.7 points to 71.6 points in the March quarter, shaking off the worst quarter in eight years for women’s financial progress in December 2020. # Year-on-year the Women’s Index rose 1.8 points or 0.8%, which is the strongest start to a calendar year since 2018. The score was helped by a strong recovery to the COVID-19 setback in female employment and a further improvement in the number of women occupying directorships on ASX 200 companies. This female-led employment recovery is continuing into the June quarter. # The timeframe to achieving total gender equality in Australia remains at 101 years based on the worst performing sub-index, unpaid work. # The timeframe to achieve gender equality in employment (sub-index) fell to 30 years in the March quarter, down from 34 a year earlier – the slowest annual growth rate since 2018. # The jobs recovery has been strongest among women over 35 years but younger women and those in the most common age group for entering parenthood are being left behind in the COVID-19 rebound.
