On the programme, Sarah and her guests looked at the big money stories affecting women in 2016, including changes to the state pension age, the role of women in business and on company boards and the gender pay gap. Together with Noreen Cesareo were guests Malcolm McLean from the pension consultants Barnett Waddingham and Fiona Chow from Pregnant & Screwed.

Noreen talked about the various initiatives she is involved in, including the first ever UK Economic Blueprint (EB) for Women-owned Businesses and the development of the EB’s digital platform which will be an independent, inclusive, first port of call for advice, information, support, training, mentors, case studies and innovative tools that will help women to start and scale up their businesses. She mentioned the current status of women directors on boards, and also talked about the challenges faced by female entrepreneurs and WBs.
