Why Future Asset?

1: Only 12% of UK fund managers are women. (Bloomberg)

2: If the rate of change stays the same, parity will not be achieved until 2215. That’s nearly 200 years! (CityWire)

Don't just take our word for it!

The girls “… now have a massive advantage when they go out into the real world .. They've got a competitive edge because they've had this phenomenal opportunity and experience.”

“The Growing Future Assets Competition was a huge opportunity for me to look into finance and investment, which had never crossed my mind as a future career before entering the contest. It truly made me realise that, as a woman, I can get involved in male dominated industries such as investment and finance. "

“The competition offers more than a chance to gain an insight into the investment industry via task completion, it opens doors to valuable industry Coaches and opportunities for workplace visits. It is genuinely the most valuable educational competition I've worked on and would not hesitate to recommend it to educational peers.”
