The CEO added that women remain actively involved at the very top level of the financial institution and are amply represented across its hierarchy grades including Executive, General Manager, Deputy General Manager and others.

THECONSCIENCEng reports that Dr Adeduntan noted that the nation’s leading financial inclusion services provider was also looking forward to the day it will have its first female Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director.

He said FirstBank has a ratio of about 39 per cent to 61 per cent female to male employees while 32 per cent women are in management driving a deliberate policy consistent with the WEPs – Equal Opportunity, Inclusion, and Non-discrimination.

Adeduntan who serves as the chairman of FWN revealed that the bank created the First Women Network in 2018 as a platform for female employees in the company to rally and assist one another to be their best, and maximise their potentials through mentorship, learning sessions and other engagements.
