With just seven percent of its portfolio managers being female, India ranks 19th among the 24 financial destinations analysed for presence of women in fund management.

Only 6.2 percent of the new funds launched in the past 12 months were assigned to a female manager.

    The industry is going to remain apathetic until public pressure makes it financially necessary for them to invest in better PR and maybe hire a few more women. However, I feel like if more people were aware enough of the fund management industry to notice and care about a gender imbalance in hiring, they would probably put pressure on the industry for more fundamental reasons. My first thought was that women remain a minority of serial killers as well.
