Feminization

In relation to the financial sector, this refers to the assumption that the proportion of female executives and decision makers will increase in the future. This is because more and more young women are graduating from the relevant courses of study and, in addition, in many countries the legislature is imposing corresponding female quotas in managerial positions, including in the financial sector. – However, according to prevalent opinion, women are less inclined to take unnecessary risks. As a result, feminization could have a dampening effect on the industry’s exposure to risky decisions. – However, this assessment is also strongly contradicted and it is even claimed that a so-called career woman (a female person whose central priority in life is achieving success in her job or profession) at the head of an institution marks the beginning of a development that must inevitably lead to the bankruptcy of this institution. – See financial psychology, male domain.
