The wealth management industry is being radically transformed by women who are driving change. InvestmentNews' 2025 Women to Watch awards recognizes those who have the most impact.
Earlier this year, we invited nominations to recognize the women and their firms that have had the biggest impact on the wealth management industry. Following a months-long process – including open nominations, independent research, and excellence awardee submissions – the 2025 Excellence Awardees have been named. These finalists represent the highest standards of women in leadership, innovation, and impact across the wealth management space.
The awards highlight both individual and organizational achievements, with categories designed to reflect the many ways women are contributing to the profession — from financial literacy advocacy to executive leadership and long-term impact.
THe 2025 Women to Watch Awards will be held on October 21 at Tribeca 360 in New York City.
More information on the event is available on the InvestmentNews 2025 Women to Watch event website.
