4. McKinsey Global Institute: The Power of Parity
Globally >75% of women are affected by gender inequality
$28 trillion of additional annual GDP in 2025 in the full-potential scenario of
bridging the gender gap - equivalent to the current economies of US and
China - $12 trillion if all countries matched their best-in-region country
Equal to 2x the likely contribution of women to global GDP growth in the
business-as-usual scenario
For the first time, research that links gender equality in society with gender
equality in work
Multiple stakeholders will be necessary to drive change
The private sector can have an impact not only on their female employees
but also on participants in their supply chains, distributors, customers, and
broader communities in which they work
