In this report by Brooke Masters, published by
the Financial Times on 15th Sep. 2015, we see
once again how a pay gap and a particular work
culture in the financial sector negatively affect women
and act as a barrier:

Hello traders!
I hope you found Brooke Mastersâ report of interestâŚ
And now, for something a little bit lighter-touch:

A healthy antidote to the âWolf of Wall Streetâ male biasâŚ
[B]Clara Guibourg[/B], online writer for [B]City A.M.[/B], wrote this article two days ago:
[B]âPowerful women in the City: From Helena Morrissey to Pinky Lilani, these are the most influential women in finance and businessâ.[/B]
The article is quite short, but it is followed by a list (with rankings) of
[B] eighty-nine (yes, 89) influential women[/B] in finance who are active
in the City (that is, Londonâs financial heart); a lot of names will be unknown,
probably, but some may be within the sphere of public awareness already.
With leaders such as these, there is a little bit of hope for women in finance after all!
:7:
Women are working good in all fields of life .In forex they can work easily and safely . Even housewives can do their own business with forex. They use their free hours in trading for earning something . Women are good traders . There is no difference of performance if they are passionate to do forex , they can do as good as men are doing.
I didnât mean any rude joke. What I meant was that âwoman and trading yes/noâ sounds to me the same silly as âwoman and carâ.
I have no doubts in this.

Nearly a year and a half later, Queen Cleopiptra (Raghee Horner)
turned up again on my radar, in this interview by [B]BOSSCHICKS[/B]:
Due for release during the 2016 American presidential election campaign, and, prior to that,
due to be screened (hopefully) in January 2016 at the Sundance film festival:
The Film by Two Women�That Has Wall Street Talking - Bloomberg Business
ROCK ON!
The film is based on the Vice-Chairwoman of Barclaysâ investment bank, Barbara Byrne:
The 25 Most Powerful Women in Finance - American Banker
The film is the brainchild of Sarah Megan Thomas and Alysia Reiner, and shows great promise to
look at the finance sector from a female perspective.

Sadly, you need to be subscribed to the FT (that is, pay money), so you will be unable to read it if your are not.
