Barron’s is a 100+ year institution in financial journalism, yet it’s constantly evolving. Reshma Kapadia is one of the driving forces behind that innovation. She was part of the team that helped launch Barron’s annual "100 Most Influential Women in US Finance" list and created the publication’s female-focused "Level Up" platform. On this episode of Press Profiles, we dive into Reshma's 30-year career, why she felt compelled to be a journalist, her love of covering emerging markets, her search for “great thinkers” to interview…and of course we explore the coveted 100 Women in Finance list – who makes it, who doesn’t, and why.
