A material gender pay gap persists across EU banks and investment firms, the EBA observes in its Benchmarking Report
The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published its Report on Remuneration and Gender Pay Gap Benchmarking for institutions and investment firms. The Report shows a material gender pay gap in 2023 with women earning less than men. Remuneration practices in institutions remained stable between 2021 - 2023, but the ratio between the variable and fixed remuneration in investment firms increased significantly after the introduction of the Investment Firms Directive (IFD).
