Lucy Baldwin,
Few Goldman Sachs employees ever make it to the rank of managing director - and even less in their youth.
But London-based Lucy Baldwin is already in charge of the bank's European research management team - despite being aged just 29.
She made her debut on the Forbes 30 under 30 list in 2012 and is leading the 21st century charge of women in the corporate world.
She was previously in charge of the bank's retail and consumer equity research.

Expelled from school for hacking, Mr Taaki has promoted free computer software and advocates total data freedom.
An establishment outsider, Dark Wallet will enable people to trade Bitcoins anonymously - and therefore evade detection by governments around the world.
He has worked alongside Cody Wilson on the app which will be totally free to use.
