Fondsfrauen Award
For the sixth time, we honored women, men, and companies that are particularly committed to gender diversity in the fund and finance industry. The "Company of the Year" award goes to companies that have taken on a pioneering role in diversity. As "Role Model of the Year," we recognize women and men who serve as role models for gender diversity in our industry. The "Woman of the Year" award is given to the woman who sets an example for others through outstanding professional achievement. The "Fund Manager of the Year" award goes to the woman who can demonstrate excellent performance for her product. The "Rising Talent" award is presented to an outstanding talent of tomorrow.
The Fondsfrauen Award 2024 was presented on October 11, 2024, at Spark in Frankfurt am Main.
Categories
The Fondsfrauen Award was presented in the following categories:
Company of the Year
We are looking for the company in the asset management and financial sector that has been the most ambitious with the promotion of women in the past year. For example, through in-house programmes, targeted training, promotion of young talents, changed job advertisements, equal pay policies or a new corporate culture.
Woman of the Year
We want to recognize successful women for their outstanding achievements.
Women who demonstrate entrepreneurial success as top performers, e.g. sales increases, mergers or repositioning of companies, implementation of strategically important projects or similar.
Fund Manager of the Year (F)
We are looking for the Female Fund Manager of the Year. She should have competitive and excellent performance, whether in a mutual fund, ETF, managed mandates or other fund structures. She should have successfully launched an innovative strategy or generated sustainable inflows for it.
Role Model of the Year (M/F/D)
The nominees are role models who have made a strong contribution to the advancement of women in the past year.
Whether it is public appearances, articles, support at events, the introduction of special programmes in their own company or mentoring: we are looking for a person who takes their role as a role model seriously and actively contributes to promoting women and bringing them into leadership positions. Nominations are also open to people who can be an inspiration to the next generation and inspire more women to join our industry.
Rising Talent (F)
Young female talents are the managers of tomorrow. We therefore want to recognise women who have chosen a career in asset management and have already achieved success within their first five years of work. Whether they have shown assertiveness, shone through innovations or ways of improving their work area or shown commitment beyond their company. Nominations are especially open to talents from the areas of sales and portfolio management.
The winners of 2024 were announced on October 11, 2024, in Frankfurt am Main at the Fondsfrauen Award ceremony.
