Book description

Discover why it is that women are poorer than men in this intelligent dissection of the gender wealth gap.

'A nuanced look at the institutional oppression faced by women on a daily basis' Dazed

The modern world is rigged unfairly in men's favour, from pensions to the tampon tax, bearing children to boardroom bullying. Exploring these injustices, Annabelle Williams, former financial journalist for The Times, shows how society conspires to limit women's wealth.

· Women are the majority of the elderly poor


· There are more men called Dave running the UK's top 100 companies than there are women altogether

· Women do 60% more unpaid work than men

Economies thrive when women do well, and only by understanding why women are poorer than men can we finally end this unfair disparity between the sexes.
