How to get more women in the C-suite

In Malta as elsewhere, men and women begin their careers in financial services at parity, but women are underrepresented in the C-suite. Four female leaders talk about their career paths and what could be done so that more talented women advance to the upper tiers of financial firms.

Can you tell us a little bit about your career path? Did you always know that working in finance was what you wanted to do?

Laragh Cassar, Partner of Camilleri Cassar Advocates: I was always interested in the corporate, finance and banking world. I graduated from the University of Malta in 2002 and proceeded to specialise in Banking and Finance in 2003 at the University of London. My career immediately focused on this industry, and I was blessed to have been exposed to many interesting projects at a time when the financial services industry was experiencing a boom in Malta.
