INTRODUCING FIRST WOMEN’S BANK

Introducing First

WOMEN’S BANK First Women’s Bank is a commercial bank with an innovative mission – to grow the global economy by advancing women and their roles within it. The bank was founded by women, is owned and managed by women, and delivers services with a focus on helping women.

The Women’s Economy First Women’s Bank has a strategic focus on what the organisation calls the women’s economy. Customers of First Women’s Bank include entrepreneurs, leaders and innovators as well as mothers, caregivers, daughters and more.

Closing the Gender Gap One of the primary aims of First Women’s Bank is to help close the gender gap between men and women in business when it comes to accessing capital. At present, only around 16% of business loans go to women and receive just 4.4% of the total dollar amount.

Should women begin to participate equally with men on a global scale, the economy could grow by as much as $2.5 trillion.
