IFC and the State Bank of Vietnam are working to raise the number of women in leadership positions in the banking sector
In Vietnam, women comprise approximately 60 per cent of the entry-level workforce in banks but only around 20 per cent in top management positions. At a time when banks in the country face challenges in terms of attracting and retaining skilled people, a limited pipeline of women talent can prove to be expensive.
