Sexual harassment in City has shifted from office to work trips, MPs told

Despite #MeToo movement bringing about some change, sexism in financial sector has become more underhand and pernicious', women tell inquiry

The social change sparked by the #MeToo movement has not translated to the UK's financial sector, with sexual harassment merely shifting away from the office to conferences and work trips, MPs have heard.

A summary of private hearings held as part of the Treasury committee's sexism in the City inquiry showed that, while a small number of women said workplaces had become more inclusive in recent years, the majority felt the Square Mile was still an old boys' club" with widespread misconduct and misogyny.
