Why was it created?
Through the support of the major aggregators, the MFAA produces data that maps the industry trends and changes - the Industry Intelligence Service (IIS) report. Trending from the IIS Reports initially showed increases in the number of female brokers and a growing percentage of female new brokers.
But data in recent reports showed female participation in the industry take a sharp turn, and begin to decline.
MFAA response
The MFAA, through MFAA COMMUNITY, brought together a panel of brokers and experts and agreed that as the peak industry body it should support the development of a strategy to assist all parts of the industry understand the challenges, research the gaps, and work together to create a plan to encourage greater female participation in the industry.
To date working with some of the key brands in the industry and the MFAA panel we have:
• Delivered a planning workshop and mapped the challenges
• Created and actioned an industry-wide research program to draw real-life feedback
• Developed a findings report and agenda for the next stage.
