At Women in Trade, Treasury & Payments 2025, Bloomberg HT spoke to Sarah Murrow, CEO of Allianz Trade UK & Ireland and Head of Women in Credit Insurance at ICISA, about the importance of driving diversity and inclusion in the credit insurance sector.
- Supporting women in credit insurance – Allianz Trade sponsors the Women in Credit Insurance Association, a working group within ICISA, to provide mentorship, training, and networking opportunities.
- Closing the leadership gap – While pay equity is strong in the sector, fewer women reach senior leadership roles, highlighting the need for targeted career support.
- Building a community – Founded in 2023, the Women in Credit Insurance Association hosts virtual and in-person events to help women advance in their careers.
- Mentorship matters – Structured mentorship programs can equip women with the skills and confidence to take on leadership roles.
- Industry-wide commitment – Driving diversity and inclusion requires an ongoing effort from companies, policymakers, and industry groups.
Empowering women in trade and finance starts with action—mentorship, community, and commitment to change.
