The Most Powerful Women in Banking
Honorees gathered at Tiffany's Landmark building in New York City, where American Banker interviewed them about the industry's trajectory and leadership lessons they've learned in their careers.
Great news: Women snagged a handful of C-level titles at big companies this week, including Ellen Alemany, Kim Hammonds and Heather Cox, and Square stands out in Silicon Valley with a leadership team that's 60% women. Bad news: the gender pay gap is growing and there are only two women among Harvard's picks for the top 100 CEOs globally. Also in the news: Blackrock's Cheryl Mills, B of A's Cathy Bessant and ICICI's Chanda Kochhar.
