For the 11th consecutive year, stock exchanges around the world ring the bell for gender equality on or around the International Women’s Day (March 8, 2025), to raise awareness of the pivotal role the private sector can play in advancing gender equality. The theme of this year is “Ring the Bell for ALL Women and Girls. Right. Equality. Empowerment”.
