A recent report from IG Prime has found only 15% of senior management team members in hedge funds are women across the globe.

The UK had one of the highest proportions of female leadership across the research, with 16.2% of senior positions being held by women.

The report finds that, while research shows that women fund managers use different strategies to men, often being more inclined to use equity-led investment strategy and being 65% more likely to diversify across markets than men, there is still great inequality across hedge funds.
