Published: 2 February 2023
This research project is being carried out during 2023 by BritainThinks on behalf of the FRC. Its objectives are to:
- Gather and assess primary evidence on the reasons for gender imbalances among senior actuaries
- Assess the barriers/disincentives for women to progress towards senior actuarial positions. Are there consistent themes to such barriers? At what point(s) in a person’s career path do the identified barriers tend to be most often experienced?
- Identify (and document) cases where good practice has supported women’s progression to senior positions in the actuarial profession
We understand that this is topic is of a sensitive nature and therefore emphasise that the research is completely confidential. The FRC will not be told who has participated and neither participants nor their employers will be identifiable in any research outputs.
