DRIVING WOMEN'S PARTICIPATION

Delving into S&P Global's commitment to women's empowerment with Nilam Patel.

How do you look at women empowerment in Indian corporates and what has been the progress in the recent years according to you?

At S&P Global, our unwavering commitment to women's empowerment begins with prioritizing talent acquisition and ongoing development. A recent report revealed a stark reality: only 3% of CEOs in Asia are women, underscoring the necessity for enhanced support programmes. We recognize the value of diversity in decision-making for sustained success. While we've taken significant steps towards creating an equitable workplace, there's a clear acknowledgment that more efforts are required to foster lasting change.
