Why Women Are Poorer Than Men and What We Can Do About It

Description

An exploration of how the world favours men financially, along with practical steps we can all take to bring about meaningful change.

Nearly 70% of Britain's homeless are women.

There are more men called Dave running the UK's top 100 companies than there are women altogether.

Women outperform men educationally at every level from high school to PhD - but still get paid less.

In this astonishing dissection of the gender wealth gap, financial journalist Annabelle Williams explains why so few women rank among the super-rich and why women are the majority of those in poverty. From the personal - feeling financially confident and liberated - to the political - demanding systemic support and representation - this ground-breaking expose will empower your financial decisions and arm you with the knowledge needed to demand equality.

Why Women Are Poorer Than Men and What We Can Do About It is both a captivating exploration and a practical guide to understanding and addressing the financial inequality between genders.
