Inspiring Women in Enterprise

Building on our legacy of supporting women in business

Last year RBS Group opened more bank accounts for women starting their own businesses than any other bank. Men are twice as likely as women to start a business and only 17% of businesses are women-led.

We want to enhance the role of women entrepreneurs. We have launched Inspiring Women in Enterprise to tackle this issue head on.

By the end of 2015, we will inspire and enable 20,000 women to explore and unlock their enterprise potential.
