#VSSER25 #session5🎙️ Welcome to Revise and Resubmit – the podcast where groundbreaking ideas get a second look, and the fine print of research turns into front-page conversation! 🧠📚✨Today, we’re not just diving into data… we’re unpacking decades of decisions, dissecting discrimination, and decoding the social scaffolding that still shapes who gets the money — and who doesn’t. 💸❌👩‍💼👨‍💼 Our featured paper?📝 “A Meta-Analysis of the Impact of Entrepreneurs’ Gender on their Access to Bank Finance”Penned by the powerhouse team: Malin Malmström, Barbara Burkhard, Charlotta Sirén, Dean Shepherd, and Joakim Wincent.📖 Published in the Journal of Business Ethics, one of the elite FT50 journals, and brought to you by Springer Nature 🌍.This isn’t just about bias in banking. It’s about the subtle, the systemic, and the surprisingly persistent obstacles facing women entrepreneurs — even in societies that wave the flag of empowerment. 🇺🇳🚩🔍 Over 20 years of research.📊 31 studies.🎯 One message that rings loud and clear: gender matters when it comes to bank loans.Women entrepreneurs are more likely to be rejected.They pay higher interest.And in an ironic twist, societies that empower women more… may actually reinforce these financial inequalities. 🤯 Why? That’s where social gender norms and political ideology come crashing into the credit score.So here’s today’s burning question:🤔💥 In a world that claims to champion equality, how do invisible biases still make the biggest difference in something as tangible as funding?🙏 Huge thanks to our incredible authors and to Springer Nature for sharing this work in the prestigious, FT50-listed Journal of Business Ethics. 📘🏅🎧 Don’t forget to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify,📺 check out our YouTube channel Weekend Researcher for video episodes,📱 and stream us on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcasts too.Because this isn’t just research — this is the kind of insight that demands a re-write.Let’s learn.
