Hear from our members


Sarah McGeehanWISF member and former Chair of women on ICs

The WISF network enables members to work together to recognise and articulate the skills, knowledge and experience they can bring to an investment committee or capital deployment function. The Women on IC group then enable members to navigate what for many is a new role and share insight on how to make the most of the role for them and the institution.

Servane MouazanChair of Women on ICs

WISF equips members with new approaches to apply to, and navigate, investment committees. We break down assumptions, provide valuable connections and collectively build members’ capacity.
