I note the report and welcome the CII’s wider Insuring Women’s Future initiative, with its aim of prompting the insurance industry to develop better solutions for women.
Headline policies driven by the Government Equalities Office – for example, gender pay gap reporting, promoting family friendly policies – may help address some of the issues underlying risk factors identified in the report.
