Background: Scottish finance firms among worst for gender pay gappublished at 10:36 British Summer Time 19 April 2018
Scottish banks and financial services firms pay men far more than women on average, according to gender pay data.
All UK companies with 250 or more employees were required to publish the information earlier this month, including hundreds of firms based in Scotland.
BBC analysis showed financial giants such as Standard Life, Aberdeen Asset Management and Royal Bank of Scotland had some of the worst gender pay gaps.
Their average median hourly rate for women was 37% lower than for men.
That means an average woman at these firms earns 63p for every £1 the average man gets paid.
