Using data from the think tank Ownershift we want to show the differences in ownership between women and men. This is our way of contributing to greater economic equality in the world and is part of our sustainability efforts.
We are convinced that when women and men have equal opportunities to reach their full potential, the world will not only be fairer – it will also become more successful and sustainable. With a better understanding of women’s ownership and savings, we want to encourage more people to pay attention to what the current ownership structure looks like in Sweden and give all individuals ownership over their own life decisions. To this end, we can play a major role through our products, services and expertise.
Taking responsibility for society’s development is part of our sustainability efforts. This also means addressing gender equality.
