What is the MFAA doing?

We have implemented the following as part of our Opportunities for Women initiative:

  • Showcased our members and their stories in 'Champions of Diversity'
  • Introduced in 2021 a National Excellence Award for Diversity and Inclusion
  • Continue to produce our annual report, Opportunities for Women, based on the findings of our Diversity and Inclusion member survey.
  • Introduced 'Women in Finance Broking' networking state-based events to enable both women and men to network, learn and support broader diversity and inclusion in the finance broking industry.
