I am
claudia segre
After more than 30 years at the forefront of international financial markets, I now head up the Global Thinking Foundation, which was established in 2016 out of a need to make my economic and financial expertise available. The foundation operates in Italy, Belgium, and France. I have worked as a trader and manager in banks such as Intesa, UniCredit and Credem, experiencing first-hand the challenges and transformations of the financial world.
I have been involved in financial education and gender advocacy since 1997, collaborating with institutions such as the OECD, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Bank.
I am involved in various scientific and technical committees, and I had the honor of being named one of Forbes’ Top 100 Italian Women in 2019.
I contribute as a consultant to the Bicameral Commission on Femicide and Other Forms of Violence and as a member of the Technical Scientific Committee of the Observatory on Gender Violence of the Department for Equal Opportunities of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers.
My commitment to civil society has seen me participate in the 2017 G7 Women’s Summit and hold the position of Co-Chair of Women7/G7 Italy since the end of 2023, the G7 group for women’s policies.
I currently continue to work on issues of economic and social justice as Vice President of the Fondazione Pubblicità Progresso and AssoFintech, and on the Board of Directors of ASSIOMFOREX.
