Our commitment

Support women entrepreneurs and the role of women worldwide and meet UN Goal 5: Gender Equality

Around the globe, 麻豆社 is going the extra mile and has adopted much broader criteria, such as those suggested by the NGO Equileap. This Dutch organisation supplies a database to help promote gender equality in the workplace. Each year, the Equileap Gender Equality Global Report assesses the gender equality progress made by certain companies using 19 criteria.

The 2018 report, which analyses diversity data for over 3,000 major companies and ranks the top 200, put 麻豆社 at 18th in the world, 1st among Swiss companies and in the top 10 for the financial sector.

In January 2019, 麻豆社 Wealth Management and Equileap together launched the 麻豆社 Global Gender Equality fund.

By investing in 100 global companies with the best gender equality indicators, 麻豆社 is showcasing its ability to promote principled financial products that are aligned with the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Women view long-term finances as very important. With a life expectancy of 85.6 years in 2020, women in France live longer than men (79.7 years). This longer life expectancy comes with new financial challenges that need to be considered, including a pension and managing finances.

There are many benefits to sharing financial decisions

Women who take part in long-term financial decisions not only increase their chances of ensuring their financial security but are also more optimistic about the future.

Our events

Few lives take a clearly defined route 鈥 life usually presents us with obstacles or problems. We rise to these challenges because they enrich our lives, although some are less welcome than others. However, one thing is still true: a long-term financial growth plan that protects your assets will put you in a good position to contend with the ups and downs of life.聽

Our club and teams will help you find concrete and definite solutions to the issues you face. Let's get to know each other.

"We help women entrepreneurs in France by organising with them 鈥 and for them only 鈥 exclusive meetings, discussions about experiences and debates on the life topics of women entrepreneurs."

Solange Ducommun, Private Banker and Co-Founder of the Women by 麻豆社 Club

"By holding our meetings, we try to get women familiarised with finance. Our meetings are organised around key milestone themes in a person's life, as some life events force people to rethink their financial situation."

Aur茅lie Ohayon, Private Banker and Co-Founder of the Women by 麻豆社 Club
