Gender diversity isn't merely equitable or fair — it makes good business sense.

Ellen Carr and Katrina Dudley

Introduction

Investment management is a well-paid and exciting profession, yet only 10% of portfolio managers are women.

The finance industry needs fresh perspectives to combat the decreasing popularity of actively managed funds.

But while women can and do have successful careers in finance, there are a variety of barriers keeping them from entering and moving up the ladder.

Ellen Carr and Katrina Dudley have decades of experience as portfolio managers at major investment firms.

In their book Undiversified, the authors draw on research and interviews to show why women tend not to pursue finance careers or get promoted to management.

Carr and Dudley explain why finance is an attractive career path and what universities and firms can do to eliminate the gender gap.
