Tune in to hear:

  • What makes women so uniquely good as behavioral investors?
  • Why have many thought of women as particularly risk averse for so many years and what systems, on the trading floor and elsewhere, have perpetuated this misconception?
  • Some book recommendations on women in investing and its history.
  • Examples of how insidious the bias against women in finance can be.
  • What can we do to attract more women to financial services when we know they are so well suited for the field?
  • What can we be doing better, as an industry, around how we treat and communicate with our clients who are women?
  • Why is the financial services industry seeing fewer and fewer new recruits and how can we get young talent interested in this work? Might career changers play a big role here?
  • If Lindsey were to design a training and hiring program for new advisors, what changes might she make to improve the terrible attrition rate the industry currently has?
