Two of this year’s Women of Influence, Luxcara’s Alexandra von Bernstorff and BlackRock’s Pam Chan, discuss the challenges of breaking into private markets and the personal skills that are key to successful investing.
Two professionals featured in PEI Media’s Women of Influence in Private Markets list 2022, APG’s Keren Raz and General Atlantic’s Melis Kahya Akar, discuss the challenges they faced as women in the field.
While women remain underrepresented in private markets, particularly at senior levels, PEI’s annual Women of Influence list demonstrates that there is certainly no shortage of female talent.
The private equity industry must work together to create an inclusive culture and increase the number of women at senior levels, says Level 20’s CEO.
Career paths in private markets may not be linear, but there are always opportunities to learn and build relationships, says BlackRock’s Pamela Brylski.
