The Women in Wealth Awards aim to recognise and reward women who have shown commitment to the financial services industry through leadership, innovation and advocacy in the fields they are passionate about. The awards acknowledge those women who have embodied the generational change and professionalism that the industry continues to reflect.
As long-time ambassadors, Mike Taylor and Financial Newswire are proud to launch the Women in Wealth Awards 2025 in co-partnership with the Emerge Foundation.
The Emerge Foundation supports educational and youth-empowering programs throughout East Timor to break the cycle of poverty and nurture long-term socioeconomic growth, with many recipients of Emerge Foundation scholarship recipients young women.
The Women in Wealth Awards allows us to both celebrate the excellency of women in the Australian financial services industry and help support the education of women on a global scale.
This is a chance to self-nominate or nominate women who have demonstrated leadership and initiative across different areas of the financial services industry, including financial planning, superannuation, life insurance and wealth management.
